Does Your Home Need More Outlets?

Chances are, if you’re buying extension cords for every room in your home or always running out of space on a power strip, your home could benefit from additional outlets. Every room in your house has its own electrical demands, and when you have limited outlets, it makes daily life more difficult than it needs to be. Here are some common situations in homes that our electricians in Martinez come across:

Living Room & Bedrooms: Since this is where a lot of us spend most of our downtime, it makes sense that most of our electronic devices are in these spaces. TVs, lamps, phone chargers, gaming consoles, window ACs, and more could be difficult to accommodate if you have limited outlets.

Kitchen: As kitchen countertop appliances continue to increase in popularity, the demand for more outlets to accommodate these trends increases. People are buying more at-home coffee makers, air fryers, breadmakers, and more, and their homes can’t always sustain them all.

Home Office: It’s estimated that there are now three times more remote jobs compared to 2020. This means that more and more people have been setting up home offices, often in spaces that weren’t meant to house everything needed to run a home office. Laptops, monitors, printers, towers, and chargers all need their own safe connection.

Bathrooms: Bathrooms are more unique in that outlets near sinks or water must be GFCI-protected for safety. Having to share outlets for toothbrush chargers, hair dryers, and electric razors can be frustrating, especially in smaller bathrooms with limited countertop space.

Garage & Outdoor Spaces: People have been getting more creative with their garage and outdoor spaces, and they are often used as gym spaces, office spaces, etc. People also house an extra refrigerator, chest freezers, power tools, and more in that space. Having well-placed, weather-rated outlets means you don’t have to worry about stringing cords through the doors and windows to power these items.

If you’re dealing with any of these situations, there is a solution! Adding outlets is a straightforward upgrade that makes your home more convenient and safe.

Why Professional Outlet Installation Matters

People have gotten pretty creative when dealing with limited outlets – that doesn’t mean those solutions are safe. A common workaround is taking a power strip and plugging it into another power strip to create more outlets. This is probably most common in living rooms and bedrooms, where there are a lot of devices that we want to be able to use at any time without having to get up and unplug another device. If you have kids who want to be able to jump from the Xbox to the PlayStation, while their Nintendo Switch is charging, and Dad’s surround sound system is plugged in (oh, and they need to charge their phone) – you can see how this can quickly get out of hand.

Our Process for Outlet Installations

When you call Ferrell Electric for outlet installation in Martinez, GA, here’s what you can expect:

Assessment – we’ll take a look at where you need outlets and inspect your home’s wiring and electrical panel. Before adding a new outlet, we need to make sure the circuit can handle the additional load. Our electricians can do load calculations based on what you want to plug in to determine if a new circuit needs to be installed.

Recommendations – based on your needs and our inspection, we will make recommendations for the best outlet type (standard, GFCI, tamper-resistant, or smart).

Installation – our electrician will then handle the wiring and install the outlet safely and to code.
Testing & Cleanup – we will test every outlet and make sure we clean up our workspaces before we leave. We’ll also answer any questions you may have.
