FAQs

Frequently asked questions about outlet and switch installation.

How much does it cost to add an outlet?

Adding a standard outlet typically costs $150-$350 depending on the location and whether new wiring needs to be run.

Do I need GFCI outlets?

NJ code requires GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, outdoors, and near any water source. If your home lacks them, upgrading is both a safety and code issue.
