Outlets & Switches
Fast, Safe Outlet & Switch Service in Denver
A dead outlet or a switch that sparks when you flip it might seem minor, but both can signal wiring problems that deserve professional attention. Done has been helping Denver metro homeowners with outlet and switch repairs, replacements, and upgrades since 1999. Our electricians arrive on time, diagnose the issue quickly, and explain what they found before touching anything — no guesswork, no upselling.
From adding GFCI outlets in kitchens and bathrooms to replacing a worn three-prong outlet in a bedroom, we handle every job with the same care and code compliance. If you’re also thinking about smart home upgrades, we can combine outlet work with a smart switch or dimmer installation in the same visit. Call 833-539-9153 to get on the schedule.

Warning Signs
Signs You Need an Electrician for Your Outlets or Switches
Some outlet and switch problems are obvious. Others are easy to ignore until they become a real hazard. Here's what to watch for.
-
Outlets That Don't Work
If an outlet is completely dead and resetting the GFCI or breaker doesn't bring it back, there's likely a loose connection, a tripped GFCI elsewhere on the circuit, or a wiring fault that needs hands-on diagnosis.
-
Sparking When You Plug Something In
A small, brief spark when plugging in a device can be normal. A large spark, a lingering spark, or one accompanied by a popping sound is not — it indicates a loose connection or a failing outlet that should be replaced promptly.
-
Warm or Discolored Outlet Covers
Switch plates and outlet covers should never feel warm to the touch or show scorch marks. This points to excess heat from a loose connection or overloaded circuit — a fire hazard that needs immediate attention.
-
Plugs That Fall Out of Outlets
Worn outlet contacts no longer grip plugs firmly. Beyond the annoyance, loose plugs arc at the connection point — generating heat that can damage the outlet and wiring behind the wall.

I cannot say enough good things about Caedon and Tyler! They came out to fix a plug for us and were the definition of professional and skilled. They were patient, incredibly thorough and detailed with their work, and knew exactly how to get the job done efficiently. To top it all off, they left the area brilliantly clean when they were finished. Exceptional service from two fantastic gentlemen - highly recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my GFCI outlet keep tripping?
GFCI outlets trip when they detect a small current imbalance — which could be moisture near the outlet, a failing appliance on the circuit, or the outlet itself wearing out. If it trips repeatedly without an obvious cause, have a licensed electrician test the circuit. Persistent tripping can sometimes signal a more serious wiring problem.
Can I replace an outlet or switch myself?
Homeowners can legally replace a like-for-like outlet or switch in Colorado, but mistakes are easy to make and the consequences — shock or fire — are serious. If the existing wiring is aluminum, if there’s no ground wire, or if you’re adding GFCI or AFCI protection, the work should be done by a licensed electrician to ensure it’s done correctly and safely.
How do I know if my home has enough outlets?
The NEC requires outlets within six feet of any point along a wall so that no spot is more than twelve feet from an outlet. If you’re regularly using power strips and extension cords, you probably don’t have enough outlets. Done can add them where you need them — safely wired with proper circuit capacity.
What is the difference between a GFCI and an AFCI outlet?
A GFCI (ground-fault circuit interrupter) protects against shock by detecting current leaking to ground — required in wet locations like kitchens and bathrooms. An AFCI (arc-fault circuit interrupter) protects against electrical fires by detecting dangerous arcing in the wiring — required in bedrooms and many other living areas under current code. Done installs both types where your home needs them.
