WHEN TO CALL

Switch & Outlet Installation and Relocation

Outlets and switches are the part of the electrical system you actually touch every day, and the part most likely to be in the wrong place in an older home. Here is when it is worth changing.

Not Enough Outlets

Relying on extension cords and power strips is the clearest sign a room needs more outlets, not more adapters.

Outlets in the Wrong Place

Furniture moves, rooms change use, and outlets end up behind a sofa or nowhere near the desk.

Two-Prong Ungrounded Outlets

Ungrounded outlets in older homes are a shock hazard and will not protect modern electronics.

No GFCI Protection

Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor locations require GFCI outlets to guard against shock.

USB Charging Needs

USB outlets remove the adapter clutter and are a straightforward upgrade during other work.

Damaged or Warm Devices

A cracked, loose, or warm outlet or switch needs replacing rather than living with.

OUR SERVICES

Your Comfort Is Our #1 Priority

At Bassett Services, we make your needs our #1 priority. This drives our every decision and action, motivating us to provide top-tier electrical services that stand out. When our technician arrives, they will explain all available options before starting any work.

Switch & Outlet Installation

We add new outlets and switches, relocate existing ones, and upgrade ungrounded two-prong outlets to properly grounded, code-compliant devices.

That includes GFCI protection where it is required (kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor locations) and USB outlets where they are useful.

Switch & Outlet Repairs

Outlets that are loose, warm to the touch, or intermittently dead usually indicate a wiring fault rather than a worn device, which is where we look first.

Our trucks are stocked to handle most of this work on the spot, so it is generally a single visit.

Why Outlet Work Is Not Always Simple

Bassett Services technician at a customer home

Adding an outlet means finding a circuit with capacity to carry it, getting cable to the new location, and terminating it correctly at both ends. In a finished house, the routing is usually the hard part.

Grounding. Replacing a two-prong outlet with a three-prong one without an actual ground conductor is a common shortcut that looks correct and provides no protection at all.

GFCI placement. Where GFCI protection goes on a circuit determines what it actually protects, and getting that wrong leaves parts of the circuit unguarded.

We handle the assessment as part of the job, so what gets installed is right rather than just present.

Your Comfort Is Our #1 Priority

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlets find their primary use in spaces housing water sources, such as bathrooms and kitchens. Their purpose lies in shielding individuals against potent electric shocks.

A ground fault signifies an atypical and inadvertent electrical route directing current toward the ground. These faults arise when electrical currents break free from a home’s insulated wires, often due to impaired wiring. Within a GFCI outlet, the motion of a home’s electrical currents across its wires is monitored, concurrently detecting ground faults. Should such a fault be identified, the GFCI outlet promptly halts the electricity transmission, effectively thwarting the potential for a life-threatening shock.

Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) outlets are ingeniously crafted to safeguard residences from infernos sparked by arcing faults. Arcing faults transpire when lax wire connections or corroded wiring culminate in sparks or arcs, which can subsequently trigger electrical fires. The role of AFCIs is to spot these arcs within the circuit and respond by instantly severing the electrical supply to that circuit.

Be it the requirement for a GFCI or AFCI outlet setup, our accomplished professionals in Indianapolis excel in switches and outlet installation. Reach out to Bassett Services without delay!
