Outlet and switch upgrades are needed when two-prong ungrounded outlets are present in a home, when kitchen, bathroom, garage, or outdoor outlets lack GFCI protection, or when outlets and switches are worn, cracked, or no longer holding plugs securely.
- Diagnose outlet or switch fault
- Replace device with correct type
- GFCI protection where required by code
- Test for proper function
The Cost of Delay
Non-GFCI outlets in bathrooms and kitchens are the most common electrical code violation found during home inspections, and for good reason: water and electricity at the same location without ground fault protection can be fatal. Contacting an expert early allows for targeted solutions before the damage becomes significantly more expensive to address.
GFCI outlets protect against shock hazards in wet areas by detecting ground faults and cutting power in milliseconds. Grounded three-prong outlets allow proper use of modern appliances. New devices with tight plug retention eliminate the fire risk of arcing at a loose connection.
Properly installed outlets and switches last 20 to 30 years. GFCI devices have test and reset buttons that confirm they are functioning at any time.
Non-GFCI outlets in bathrooms and kitchens are the most common electrical code violation found during home inspections, and for good reason: water and electricity at the same location without ground fault protection can be fatal. The National Electrical Code has required GFCI protection in these locations since the 1970s, which means any home built or renovated after that date without it has either lost the protection or was never brought to code. The risk isn't theoretical — the ground fault that GFCI is designed to stop happens faster than any circuit breaker can respond.
