Robert F. says, "Francis N. is a superlative electrician. I have hired several well-trained electricians in the past 20 years for 1-3 day projects, but Francis is the best. Without reservation, I award him 5 stars (out of 5) for the reasons noted below. The wok consisted of installing nonworking GFIs outside and replacing old GFIs inside the home, replacing 15 old recessed down lights with new uncanned, LED-based lights that allowed the homeowner to set the color temperature, and new dimmer switches in several rooms. Francis always discussed with me the options of the various components before and sometimes after he had purchased them, as occasionally substitutions were required. He was efficient in the purchase, installation and testing of all components. He always asked my opinion of the installed components and if each of the components performed as I truly wanted. And there are the intangible things that are a hallmark of Francis’ character. He always arrived at the home at the times on which we agreed. He always covered his shoes, was careful with the equipment and tools he used at the work sites, efficient in his work, and stayed on each job until it was completed, and placed all the paper and plastic container either in my recycle bins or the trash. At the competition of the jobs, he vacuumed the carpet on which he worked and even removed the dust covering some of the lights after installing the associated dimmer switches."See more

Henri L. says, "This was my first time hiring someone from Thumbtack. Having hard time getting replies with other electricians, Richard was the only one who replied. I needed several outlets to be upgraded to a GFCi and an outlet for the stove. Everything was completed well. Very pleased and will hire again in the future."See more

FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How much does it cost to have an outlet installed?

If you plan on hiring a professional electrician to install an outlet, expect to pay $75 to $500, or an average of $210. But for an accurate cost estimate, you need to contact a few electrical outlet installers near you.

The light switch and outlet types may impact your cost. The location of the outlet also matters, as the electrician may have to route additional wiring and may not have access to existing wiring. If you need the outlet childproofed, this may also cost more.

Read our cost guide, “How much do switch and outlet installation cost?”

Do I need an electrician to add an outlet?

Generally, this is a job best left to a licensed professional. A licensed electrician will be able to install your outlet using the most up-to-date code practices. If you need any permits to perform the install, the electrician should also be able to obtain them for you.

Do I need a permit to install GFCI outlets?

Depending on where you live, you likely need a permit to install GFCI outlets. When in doubt, get in contact with your local government, and ask a licensed electrician to perform your electrical work.

Jason Installed electrical outlets in my bedroom and attic. He was able to snake wire through 100 year old walls along with improving my overall electrical system. I will definitely have Jason back for more work in the future. Thanks

Tom did a great job installing new electrical outlets so I could mount my tv to the wall. He also gave me some helpful tips. Thanks Tom!

Black Dog Electric installed multiple outlets, switches and lights in our 100-year old basement for us. The quality is top-notch and everything was cleaned up so well you wouldn't know they were even there. I would recommend them for any electric needs that you have!

J.L. Smith Electric Co

5 stars all around - they were able to quickly install the two new outlets we needed for laundry hookup as well as identify and fix issues with our breaker box and repair two malfunctioning outlets. They were prompt, polite, provided clear explanations and I look forward to working with them with any electrical needs in the future. Highly recommend!

From Seth L.

Seamus did a great job and we were pleased with the results of his work. The best part was that his price was significantly lower than the other quotes we received through Thumbtack, but we did not feel that we skimped on the quality of the work that was done. Only complaint was the mess that was left behind for us to clean up, but once we cleaned everything up we were pleased with the new lights that he installed in two rooms, the new outlets that he ran and installed in two rooms, and the outlets that he replaced and fixed in several other rooms. Very pleased with the value of the work and would definitely hire again in a heartbeat if/when we need electrical work done in the future! Thank you, Bodge Electric (and Seamus in particular), for your prompt service, excellent communication, very fair and competitive pricing, and high quality work. I would recommend anyone to hire Bodge Electric for your electrical needs!

From Thumbtack Customer

Chris was great and the work was not just installing a new outlet. It was much more involved and he did a fantastic job at a fair price. His quote was accurate, he got back to us right away and showed up on the day and at the time he said he would. I have no hesitation in referring him to friends and family that need electrical work.
