Signs Your Outlets Need Attention

  • Let's be real: almost nobody thinks twice about their electrical outlets - until they start acting up. But waiting for the outlets to spark or smoke is like playing Russian roulette. Why risk it? Instead, familiarize yourself with common signs of trouble so you can act before issues become big problems. Here are some red flags to watch out for:
  • Warm or Hot Outlets: An outlet that feels warm to the touch is a red flag for internal damage or overload.
  • Loose Connections: If your plug falls right out of the outlet or feels wobbly, then it's time for a repair or replacement. Loose receptacles can lead to sparks and electrical hazards.
  • Discoloration: Yellowing, browning, or black marks around an outlet usually mean heat damage.
  • Sparks or Burning Smells: If you see sparks when plugging something in, or notice a burning odor, then shut off the respective circuit and call us immediately.
  • Dead Outlets: An outlet that suddenly stops working could be pointing at a sign of deeper electrical issues.

A small issue today can become a major safety risk tomorrow. Plus, why delay repairs when a local electrician is one call away? Contact Mr. Electric to get in touch with a live representative today.

Protection Where It Matters Most

Outlets are not just about providing power. For example, GFCI outlets (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters) are designed to protect you from electrical shock - especially in areas where water and electricity might mix. In fact, building codes typically require GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and outdoor spaces.

If you do not see a "test" and/or "reset" button on your outlets in the kitchen, bathroom, basement, or laundry room, then you’re not just out of code — you’re putting your safety at risk. It's time to call Mr. Electric for an electrical outlet replacement.

Take Your Home to the Next Level with Smart Outlets

Durham’s not just home to history; it’s also a hub for innovation. If you’re ready to make your property a little smarter, then smart outlets are a great place to start. These advanced receptacles let you control your lights, appliances, and devices remotely through your phone or voice assistants like Alexa and Siri. For example, you can:

  • Turn on a coffee maker from your bed.
  • Schedule your lights to turn off when you leave for work.
  • Monitor your energy usage and even save on your power bill.

Smart outlets are great in any home, but they are especially handy for rental properties and busy households. Make sure it's installed properly though. Our electrical outlet installer in Durham handles the installation and gets you set up for easy use so that you can take advantage of everything the outlets offer.
