Professional Outlet Installation Services for Modern Homes

Upgrading your outlets to modern ones doesn’t have to be a difficult process. In fact, with our help, it can be a quick and painless process!

Today’s modern outlets are easier to use, safer for your family, and much more aesthetically pleasing than older outlets. Modern outlets will have child safety features to prevent little ones from getting hurt and will be designed to handle your modern devices. 

Is Your Home Ready for Modern Outlet Upgrades?

If you are thinking about upgrading your home's outlets, the first question you should ask is whether or not your home is ready to handle modern outlets. 

Your home may be ready for modern outlets if you have:

• Enough room in the electrical box for the new outlet
• A circuit that can handle the additional load the new outlet will use
• Enough room around the outlet to fit your modern devices

Contact Us for Safe and Reliable Outlet Installation

While you might be tempted to try and handle outlet installation yourself, we strongly recommend that you don’t. Outlets are dangerous and can cause serious electrical burns if they are installed incorrectly. Not only that, but outlets need to be wired to comply with current code, and a professional electrician is the only person who can ensure that your outlet is wired correctly.

Call an electrician to handle your outlet installation if any of the following are true:

• You aren’t sure how to wire the new outlet
• You want to install a modern outlet in a hard-to-reach location
• You want to install a modern outlet with a special feature, like USB ports
• You aren’t sure how to match the new outlet style with your home’s style

Our professional electricians at Benchmark Electric can handle any of your outlet installation needs, no matter what type of outlet you are installing.

Ensure Safety with GFCI & GFI Outlet Installations

There are several types of electrical outlets found in homes and businesses. GFCI outlets, also known as GFI outlets, are a type of outlet designed to protect against electrical shocks and electrocution. These outlets should be installed in every bathroom, kitchen, or other area where water is present. 

Protect your home from potential electrical hazards by having GFCI outlets installed. Our expert electricians at Benchmark Electric provide professional GFCI and GFI outlet installation. We utilize the highest quality products from industry leaders, ensuring that your outlets are performing as they should to provide you with safe electricity.

There are several benefits of having GFCI outlets installed, including:

• Easier to identify malfunction of outlets
• Reduction in risk of electrical fires
• Less risk of shock or electrocution
• Better protection from power surges

Key Locations for GFCI Outlet Installation

In the event of a power surge, a GFCI outlet will automatically shut off the power to the outlet and any devices connected to it. This prevents a potential shock or electrocution from occurring. 

These outlets are extremely important in areas where water is present, such as:

• Bathrooms: With showers, bathtubs, and toilets, the bathroom is a place where electrical hazards are possible. 
• Kitchens: Even though the kitchen is a place where water is present, the use of appliances and tools like mixers, toasters, and blenders can cause electrical hazards as well. 
• Outdoor Outlets: The outside of the home often has outlets for lawn equipment, tools, and other items that may be exposed to rain or moisture.
