Electrical Outlets and Switches

Outlets and switches are the primary ways that you interact with the electrical system in your home. Sure, there is more to a functional system than just outlets and switches, but without these key components, your system would be virtually useless.

Whether you need new outlets and switches installed, or you have repairs to complete on existing ones, Berico is the ideal partner for the job. The experienced Berico team will handle outlet repair and any other related electrical safety projects to make sure your home is functional and safe for everyone inside.

 

A Job for the Pros

While some minor electrical work might seem simple, attempting DIY electrical repairs can be dangerous and even illegal. Working with electricity requires specialized knowledge and adherence to strict safety codes. Improperly wired outlets and switches can pose serious fire hazards and increase the risk of electrical shocks. By entrusting your electrical projects to the experienced professionals at Berico, you ensure that all work is performed safely, efficiently, and to the highest industry standards. Our licensed electricians prioritize your safety and will always adhere to local electrical codes.

 

Signs That You Need a New Outlet Installed

Most of the time, the outlets in your home will work just fine. Modern electrical outlets are extremely reliable, but even the best equipment can develop problems at one point or another. Fortunately, the signs that you need to have an outlet replaced are pretty obvious as long as you pay attention to how they function and act quickly when a problem does arise.

The first big sign that something is wrong is when you see sparks or smoke coming from an outlet. If there are sparks when you plug something in, or if smoke starts to appear, immediately unplug the item and call in the professionals at Berico right away. Continuing to use this outlet can lead to a very dangerous situation and a fire risk will exist.

While it’s not as dramatic as sparks or smoke, discolored outlets also point to the need for a replacement. The black, burnt marks on the outlet mean there is overheating taking place, and again there is the risk of a fire. You should not use such outlets and should have them replaced as soon as possible.

 

New Switches Can Add Convenience

You can obviously turn to Berico for help if you have a switch in your home that is no longer working, but you don’t have to be having problems to utilize this service. You might also want to bring in Berico simply to add a switch in a place where you don’t have one currently. Is there a room in your house where you wish the light switch was in a different spot? Solving that problem is a quick and affordable job when you turn to the professionals.
