Frequently Asked Questions About Outlets & Switches Installation
Why do my outlets have only two prongs?
Homes built before the mid-1960s often lack an equipment ground wire. We can safely retrofit GFCI receptacles or pull fresh ground conductors to bring them to code.
Can you install USB-C charging receptacles in our kitchen island and nightstands?
Yes! Modern high-wattage USB-C PD receptacles allow you to fast-charge phones and laptops without bulky wall bricks.
