Why should I upgrade my outlets?

Outdated outlets can pose safety risks, especially if they lack grounding or GFCI protection. Modern outlets improve safety, provide additional functionality like USB ports, and help your home meet electrical codes. We can assess your needs and recommend the right upgrades.

When should I replace a switch or outlet?

If an outlet feels hot, is loose, sparks, or doesn’t hold plugs firmly, it should be replaced immediately. Similarly, faulty or stiff light switches can indicate internal damage. We recommend replacing any fixture showing signs of wear or malfunction.

What is a GFCI outlet and where should it be installed?

A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlet protects against electrical shock in wet areas like bathrooms, kitchens, garages, and outdoors. It shuts off power instantly if it detects a fault. GFCI outlets are required by code in many areas of the home.

Can you install USB outlets or smart switches?

Yes, we install USB-equipped outlets and smart switches that integrate with home automation systems. These upgrades are a simple way to modernize your home and add convenience. We’ll help you choose the best options for your needs.

How long does it take to install new outlets or switches?

Simple replacements typically take less than an hour. Installing new outlets where none existed can take a bit longer if new wiring or circuits are needed. We’ll give you a clear timeline during your consultation.

Is it expensive to upgrade all the outlets in my home?

Upgrading outlets is a relatively affordable project compared to full rewiring. Costs vary depending on the number of outlets and the types you choose. We provide upfront quotes so you’ll know exactly what to expect.

Are your electricians licensed and insured?

Yes, every Aux Home Services electrician is fully licensed, insured, and trained to complete safe, code-compliant installations. We stand behind all our work with a satisfaction guarantee.

Do you offer financing for larger electrical projects?

Yes! Financing is available for larger electrical upgrades, including outlet rewiring, whole-home safety improvements, and surge protection installs.

I had a very good experience. Cody replaced the gas Water Heater, expansion tank, lifted it up on a stand so it would be in code. He also had to adjust the gas and water pipes and the vent that attached to my ventilation system. He did this efficiently and left zero waste behind. He made sure I understood everything before I signed off. ALSO, I just had surgery and couldn’t use one arm, I asked if he’d mind putting on the outside faucet covers (x2) for the cold snap coming up and he didn’t mind at all. I would have understood if he had to move on to next job but he was happy to help. Just a good guy all around. I believe that AUX is lucky to have him on their team! And Casey in the office was/is easy to talk to and very patient. I appreciate her so much. Thanks AUX.
