Outlets and Switches in Pittsburgh

GFCI and AFCI outlets, grounding, dimmers and 220v circuits for safer, easier to use Pittsburgh homes.

Outlet and Switch Installation Done Safely

Outlets and switches are the parts of your electrical system you touch every day, and in older Pittsburgh homes they're often the most worn out. Loose plugs, warm cover plates, two prong outlets and switches that crackle are all signs something behind the wall needs attention.

Renaissance Electric has handled outlet and switch installation in Pittsburgh since 1997. We check the wiring behind every device, add the right protection for kitchens, baths and bedrooms, and fix grounding instead of just swapping the face. If your panel has no room for new circuits, we handle panel upgrades too. All work carries our lifetime workmanship warranty.

Pittsburgh Homeowners on Outlet and Switch Work

Reviews from customers who had outlets and switches fixed.

Eric came out and helped with open grounds on some outlets due to previous owners shotty work. Was able to diagnose the issue and saved me a ton of money by not having to replace all my outlets. I will definitely use them again for my future needs.

Brad B.

Eric was great! He took time to answer questions and provided detailed information and guidance. He made an extra effort to fit us in quickly. He replaced/updated an old outlet in an old house. The service was done well and efficiently. Very happy with Eric and Renaissance Electric!

Outlets and Switches FAQ

Where do I need GFCI outlets?

Kitchens, baths, laundry areas, garages, basements and outdoors, per NEC 210.8. See GFCI and AFCI outlets.

Can I just swap two prong outlets for three prong?

Not safely without a ground. We add grounding or use GFCI protection where code allows.

Why does my outlet feel warm?

Loose connections or an overloaded circuit. Stop using it and call us, since heat can lead to a fire.

Can you add an outlet for a dryer or range?

Yes, we run dedicated 220v circuits with the correct breaker and receptacle.

Do you install smart switches?

Yes, along with dimmers and 3 way switches. Many smart switches need a neutral, which we check first.

How is the work priced?

By the number of devices, the wiring behind them and any new circuits. Every job starts with a free estimate.
