Outlet Replacement

Safe, code-compliant receptacle upgrades by Happy Home Electricians.

Fix Dead, Loose, or Unsafe Outlets—Fast

Worn or damaged outlets can overheat, shock, or fail when you need them most.
Happy Home Electricians replaces faulty receptacles and upgrades to modern safety outlets (GFCI/AFCI, tamper-resistant, weather-resistant) so your home stays safe and convenient.

Signs Your Outlets Need Replacement

  • Outlets feel loose, won’t hold plugs, or only work intermittently
  • Burn marks, melting, warmth, or a burning/ozone smell
  • Two-prong (ungrounded) outlets or mixed old/new styles
  • GFCIs that won’t test/reset or trip frequently
  • Cracked covers, broken yokes, or buzzing/sparking when plugging in
  • No GFCI protection in kitchens, baths, laundry, garage, outdoors

Our Outlet Replacement Services

We install listed, properly rated receptacles and correct wiring so every outlet is safe and reliable.

  • Standard Receptacle Replacement: Secure, tight-grip outlets that hold plugs properly.
  • Tamper-Resistant (TR): Child-safety shutters to prevent foreign object insertion.
  • GFCI Protection: Ground-fault outlets or GFCI breakers for wet/damp areas with correct line/load wiring.
  • AFCI/AFCI+GFCI Solutions: Protection against arc faults where required or recommended.
  • Weather-Resistant (WR): Outdoor-rated receptacles with in-use (bubble) covers.
  • USB & USB-C Outlets: Built-in charging for phones, tablets, and accessories.

  • Labeling & Documentation: Clear circuit directory updates for future service.

Not Sure It’s the Outlet?

Dead outlets can be caused by a tripped GFCI upstream, a weak breaker, loose neutrals, or a wiring fault.
We diagnose first, then replace only what’s needed.

  • Circuit testing, polarity checks, and neutral/ground integrity
  • Find hidden GFCIs and resolve nuisance trips
  • Repair backstabbed connections with secure screw-lug terminations
  • Trace multi-wire branch circuits and add proper handle ties

Safety & Code Compliance

Every replacement follows current electrical code and manufacturer specs: correct device ratings (15A/20A),
box fill, grounding/bonding, and proper GFCI/AFCI protection. We use copper conductors or listed AL/CU connectors where aluminum is present, torque to spec, and install weather/tamper-resistant devices where required.

Upgrades That Make a Difference

  • Replace worn cords/devices and eliminate adapters/power strips
  • Add outlets to reduce daisy-chained extension cords
  • Whole-home surge protection to protect electronics and chargers
  • Periodic safety checks for older homes and remodels
