About this service
An electrical box is the protective housing for your switches, outlets, and wire connections. These boxes keep live wires contained and prevent accidental contact, which is a major safety requirement. If you notice a cover plate is loose, the box itself is shifting in the wall, or you are renovating and adding new outlets, you will need to address these fixtures. We ensure every box is properly secured and grounded. We provide exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
