Outlet Installation in Sarasota

Need More Outlets? Call Us Today (941) 202-5688

Installing an outlet is an easy project, but it needs some consideration. It is definitely not a DIY project and requires a licensed electrician. Plus, between everything that you have to do from sunrise to sunset, let Mister Sparky® of Sarasota worry about your outlet installation.

When Should an Existing Outlet Be Replaced?

It’s a good idea to replace an outlet if:

It isn’t GFCI (code standard)
Plugs are loose or won’t stay in
It sparks or makes noise when inserting or removing a plug
The plate feels hot
Your CGFI cannot be reset or isn’t tripping properly

Almost no one tests their Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlets, but doing so saves lives. One button says “test”, and one button says “reset”. About once a month, push “test”. “Reset” should pop out, and the power to the outlet should shut off. Push “reset” to go back to normal. If the buttons aren’t working, it needs a replacement.

Fun fact: The “reset” button is not being pushed out by a mechanical force from your finger! The button popping out is a quick response to electricity.

Where Can I Have a New Outlet Installed?

According to electrical code requirements, you are required to have an outlet located at particular intervals in your home. Aside from that, if you have a need for an outlet closer to a certain spot in your home, our Sarasota electricians can help you decide on the location of and install a new outlet for you.

I was thoroughly satisfied with my experience with Mr. Sparky, except for the very high, inflated prices. The technician, Garrett Santana was a gem. He did outstanding work and was extremely professional, completing the jobs in a timely and satisfactory fashion. I had no complaints with him and he also had a pleasant personality. I would definitely ask about the prices prior to any work performed. Overall, I would highly recommend Mr. Sparky!

Garrett did an awesome job installing ceiling fan light kits and new wall switches. Garrett was prompt, polite, considerate, and professional. Highly recommended! Ramon and Lucas were fantastic! Professional, courteous, friendly, and considerate. They hung some heavy chandeliers and went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect. They also added an outlet for a wall mount TV. We are so happy and would highly recommend Mr. Sparky!

- Rusty Farinella

Bailey and Daniel were professional, efficient and courteous. Thank you for the great work. I had four old ceiling fan lights replaced, another ceiling light, two dimmer switches installed and all of my smoke alarms replaced. They were 20 yrs old. Yikes. And they even hauled away the old gross fans. Great service.

Bailey and his assistant were great! Honest advice and expert workmanship. Very polite and fast. Took care of my problem and also noted a couple other issues that needed being done for safety. Reasonable price for the devices installed and labor done. I would strongly recommend him to anyone needing electric work done.

Brady did a great job. He is extremely knowledgeable and gave me quotes on future projects that need to be completed to update my home. Super genial and competent. Thank you
