GOOD TO KNOW

When to Replace or Repair your Outlets or Switches

Deciding whether an outlet or switch needs a repair or a full replacement isn’t always straightforward, and the right call often depends on why you’re looking at it in the first place — safety versus simple functionality. A few signs worth paying attention to:

Cracked Plates

In the event that the plate protecting your outlet or switches cracked, you should have it repaired by KB Complete immediately. A cracked plate could lead to exposed wiring which can pose a safety hazard and be dangerous for those in your household.

Discoloration

If you have noticed streaks or general discoloration on the plate protecting your outlets or switches, you need a repair from a licensed electrician at KB Complete. Discoloration is a sign of power surges or overheating which can lead to a fire.

Relocation

Do the locations of your outlets or switches in your home no longer make sense for the space? If so, it’s probably time to relocate them. This can be a consuming process, but the experts from KB Complete have the know-how and ability to relocate them to make the space work best for your home.

Sparks or Smoke

If outlets or switches in your home ever spark or begin to smoke, you should stop using them immediately and contact a professional electrician. A professional electrician can safely repair the issue before any further damage can be done to your home electrical system.
