On July 1, 2026, our technicians Eric Myers and Gustavo Peralta replaced every standard and GFCI 120V receptacle and all switches with new, tamper-resistant devices and fresh plates. The project also included a full home electrical safety inspection and the installation of two customer-supplied light fixtures on existing circuits.

When paired with new switches and updated plates, you get a uniform appearance, smoother operation, and peace of mind throughout the home.
