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Outdated outlets can pose safety risks, especially if they lack grounding or GFCI protection.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 recently purchased a townhouse that was in need of some repairs and updates. I scheduled to have a plumber and an electrician from.Banks Quarles. Michael Rainey inspected my inoperable tankless water heater, and due to its age, determined it needed to be replaced. He also advised on having a surge protector installed since my home did not have one, and was likely the cause of damage to the water heater. Ted Green replaced several light fixtures and ceiling fans. A couple of electrical boxes had to be moved or added for the lights. Ted was also able to install the surge protector. Both Michael and Ted arrived promptly and were very professional and friendly. The plumbing and electrical jobs required several hours of work. The guys were patient and good at explaining the work being done. I would highly recommend having work done by either of these technicians.

The electrical service I received was above and beyond The customer service started when I received the text introducing the technician that would be arriving at my home. Top of the line. He explained everything that he had to do and took care of all my electrical needs. I would highly recommend my technician Reed Mace. He was excellent and even explained the program your business offers for yearly service. No#10.

Recently a storm took power lines down in my neighborhood, & ripped the meter & fuse box from the side of my house. Banks Quarles’ office person was wonderful, & got me scheduled asap, sent their electrician, Ted to assess the damage & help me get power back to my house. Ted rebuilt my service, handled getting the city inspector out to sign off on the work, & helped me deal with Alabama Power to get my power line restored to the house & turned back on. Ted went above & beyond to help me get my power back as soon as possible, he even helped me by getting into my garage to release the electric garage door so I could get my car out! He was so very helpful, polite, pleasant, & professional! He is a great ambassador for the Banks Quarles company! I cannot reccomed Banks Quarles highly enough! A hundred stars!😊

Seth, Dalton, Gator and Anthony spent all day at our house installing a new inside and outside unit. They were professional, respectful and efficient. Anthony cleaned our ducts without judgment (4 kids). Seth stayed late to be sure everything was functioning properly and pristine. He even loved on our attention needing puppy without complaint. They answered my multiple questions with enthusiasm. I 100% recommend! It was truly a pleasure doing business with this company. These guys are rare and this crew worked exceptionally well together.
