Outlet and Switch Services in New Orleans & Metairie
Safe, Modern Power Where You Need It
Outlets and switches might seem simple, but they’re some of the most used—and most overlooked—features in your home. Whether you're constantly hunting for a plug near the sofa or still using switches that spark or feel loose, upgrading your home's electrical controls can make a big difference in comfort, safety, and style.
We help homeowners across New Orleans and Metairie improve their homes by installing, relocating, or upgrading outlets and switches. From classic Uptown homes with quirky wiring to newer construction in Metairie that needs a smarter setup, we make sure your power access is clean, secure, and convenient.
When It’s Time to Replace or Add Outlets
If you’ve ever had to run an extension cord across the room just to plug in your phone charger, your home probably needs a few more outlets. Most older homes weren’t built with today’s power demands in mind. And some of the outlets they do have—especially the old two-prong kind—just aren’t safe anymore.
Whether you're adding USB outlets to your kitchen, converting a dining room into a home office, or replacing cracked or scorched receptacles, we’ll make sure everything is properly grounded and up to code. No shortcuts. No guesswork.
We install:
Standard three-prong outlets
GFCI outlets near water sources (kitchens, baths, outdoors)
AFCI outlets for added fire protection
USB combo outlets for charging devices
Tamper-resistant outlets for families with young kids
Smart, Stylish Switches That Work the Way You Want
A switch should do more than just click. It should match your lifestyle. Maybe you want a dimmer in the dining room, motion sensors in the hallway, or Wi-Fi switches you can control from your phone. Or maybe you’re just tired of flipping the wrong one every time you walk in the room.
We can help design a switch layout that actually makes sense—no more guesswork when turning on the lights. We also make sure the wiring behind your switches is secure and labeled clearly in your panel, which makes future upgrades (and troubleshooting) a whole lot easier.
Behind the Wall, It Matters
Too often, we open up switch boxes or outlets and find a mess—loose wires, backstabbed connections, no grounding, or amateur patches that barely pass as safe. It might work fine for a while, but it’s one short away from being a hazard.
We take the time to do it right. Clean splices, tight connections, and code-compliant installs that make your home safer—not just more convenient. If you’re already remodeling, we’ll work with your contractor to make sure outlets and switches are placed exactly where you need them—not just where they used to be.
Built for Homes in New Orleans & Metairie
New Orleans homes are unique. From French Quarter walk-ups with brick walls to double-shotguns in Gentilly, every house comes with its own electrical history. We’ve rewired outlets in places where plaster walls crumble if you sneeze too hard and tracked down ancient junction boxes buried behind beadboard.
In Metairie, we often find homes from the 60s and 70s that have original outlets—sometimes with aluminum wiring that needs special handling. We know the neighborhoods, we know the quirks, and we know how to bring your home's wiring into the modern age without tearing it apart.
More Than Just a Quick Fix
Sure, we can replace a single bad outlet or a noisy dimmer switch. But if you’ve had flickering lights, outlets that don’t work, or power loss to whole rooms, there’s probably a deeper issue worth looking into. We don’t just patch the problem—we find the root cause and fix it for good.
If your home needs additional circuits, an updated panel, or a full outlet layout redesign, we’ve got you covered. No pressure, no upsell—just honest advice and professional work.
