"Updated bathroom electrical during remodeling. They came the day after I called them for an estimate for 1 hour of work and completed it immediately. Also gave me an estimate for a household generator. I would hire them again."

"5-Star Review for First Call Appliance Repair I couldn’t be more impressed with my experience at First Call Appliance Repair. If you're looking for top-quality appliances at unbeatable prices, this is the place to go. I was initially hesitant about buying a scratch and dent item, but Derek walked me through everything with transparency and professionalism. Not only were the cosmetic imperfections barely noticeable, but the appliance itself works flawlessly—just like new. The staff were incredibly knowledgeable and helped me find the perfect fit for my home and budget. What has stood out the most, I had a problem with my washer and Derek had it fixed within 24 hours. Where else can you purchase or have repairs done other than First Call Appliance Repair? Highly recommend First Call Appliance Repair for anyone looking for value, honesty, and excellent service."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Most new homes have coax outlets in every room. A home can require anywhere from one to five outlets based on how many rooms require internet, cable, or satellite access. If you want to mount your TV on a wall as part of a home renovation, consider installing a new outlet to avoid the need for a splitter or long cable that could slow down speeds.

According to the National Electrical Code (NEC), GFCI outlets should be installed in wet or damp locations where they might be splashed with water or other liquids. This is to protect against ground faults, which are more common around water. Specific areas that require GFCI outlets include kitchens (especially near counters), bathrooms, laundry rooms, basements, garages, and all outdoor receptacles. Depending on local electrical codes, you may need at least one GFCI outlet in these rooms, or every outlet in the area may need to be GFCI protected.

The safest option is to let a technician conduct the inspection. However, if you are certain that the capacitor failed and you take all precautions to avoid electric shock, you can take a look yourself. Usually, you can open the front panel of the unit and use a flashlight to find the small capacitor cylinder. It should have a sticker on it that provides its product number, capacity, and similar information that you can note when talking to a contractor.

Yes, you can put a GFCI outlet in almost any electrical outlet location. As long as the outlet is wired correctly back to a circuit breaker, you can likely replace the existing outlet with a GFCI outlet.

Moving an electrical meter in your home depends on what your electric utility company allows. If you only want to move it a few inches, that may be no problem or only incur light fees. If you want to move it a significant distance, you may need to arrange a utility inspection and get permission, or your utility company may prevent it altogether.
