What affects the price
Electrical work costs depend on a few key factors. The age of your home’s wiring is a big one, as older systems often need extra attention to meet current safety standards. The complexity of the specific job, the accessibility of the work area, and the quality of the materials requested also play a role. If a project requires permits or involves upgrading your main panel, that will naturally increase the time and labor involved. While small repairs might be straightforward, larger installations take more planning.
About this service
An outlet extender pushes your receptacle box further out from the wall, which is necessary when you add a new backsplash, tile, or thick wall paneling. This ensures the outlet remains flush with the surface for safety and code compliance. We install these to keep your connections secure and prevent gaps behind faceplates. Pricing is based on the number of outlets being adjusted.
