Jesse and Lesle
Installation of camera with transformer.
Not picture but installation of fan with heater and light in bathroom.
Having a carport/storage shed(16'X24') I needed to have the power line raised from pole to house(County Code).
They were prompt on the day of work. They noticed somethings that needed to be brought up to code. They explained what needed to be done, the way they were going to do it and the cost.
I noticed the pictures are not in order. SMUD disconnecting the power line, the electrician installing the raiser, SMUD connecting the power line to utility box.
What was to be expected was the wait for SMUD, the county and SMUD. In this kind of work you are on their schedule and not the other way around.
The electricians did their work on a timely basis.
I continue to call them for an electrical work and ethernet connection.
County inspector after passing inspection on footing and forms suggested that I have a ground rebar installed.
I contacted OldTown Electric Inc. who I had previously made arrangements to run a power line along with two cables for security cameras an Ethernet line to the storage shed part of the structure.
They were prompt, professional and courteous.
Outlet & Switch Installations In Sacramento
Electrical Outlet & Switch Services We Offer in Citrus Heights
Whether you need a single outlet replaced or a full room rewired for modern use, we handle it all under one roof — no subcontractors, no hand-offs. Here’s what we do for Citrus Heights homeowners.
For a full look at our electrical services, visit our Electrical Outlets & Switches service page or our Citrus Heights Electrician hub.
Outlet Installation & Replacement in Citrus Heights
Old homes in Citrus Heights — especially those built in the 1960s through 1980s — often have two-prong outlets, worn receptacles, or not enough outlets for modern living. We install new outlets anywhere you need them, run the circuit correctly, and make sure everything is up to code. Interested in adding outlets to your kitchen, garage, or home office? Call (916) 472-0271 or get a free estimate.
GFCI Outlet Installation & Upgrades
California electrical code requires GFCI protection in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, outdoor areas, and anywhere water is nearby — and Citrus Heights inspectors enforce it. If your home is missing GFCI outlets or still has the older two-prong style in these areas, we’ll bring it up to NEC 2023 standards quickly. We pull the permit when required and do it right the first time. → Schedule a free estimate.
AFCI Outlet & Breaker Upgrades
Arc-fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) protection is now required by California code in bedrooms and other living spaces — it detects dangerous electrical arcing that standard breakers miss and prevents house fires before they start. If your Citrus Heights home hasn’t been updated, we’ll assess what’s needed and install AFCI protection that meets current code.
Switch Installation, Replacement & Dimmer Upgrades
Dead switches, flickering lights, or switches that buzz when dimmed — all signs it’s time for an upgrade. We replace faulty switches, install 3-way and 4-way configurations, and upgrade standard switches to smart dimmers or smart switches compatible with Google Home and Alexa. Clean, professional installs every time.
USB & Specialty Outlet Installations
Tired of hunting for a charging block? We install USB-A and USB-C combo outlets so your devices charge directly from the wall — great for bedrooms, kitchens, and home offices. We also install 240V outlets for EV chargers, dryers, ranges, and other high-draw appliances.
Outlet & Switch Troubleshooting & Repair
Not sure why an outlet stopped working or a circuit keeps tripping? We diagnose the problem correctly the first visit. No parts-swapping guesswork — we trace the issue to the source and give you a clear explanation and your options before touching anything.

Start Your Citrus Heights Outlet & Switch Project — Free Estimate, No Obligation
We’ll come to your home, take a look at what you need, and give you a detailed written estimate at no charge — no pressure, fast response. Most projects book within 1–2 weeks, so the sooner you reach out, the sooner we can get it done.
Simple like-for-like replacements (swapping a broken outlet for a new one of the same type) typically don't require a permit. But if you're adding new outlets, upgrading to GFCI or AFCI protection, or running new circuits, a permit is usually required. We assess what your project needs during the estimate and pull permits in-house when required — you don't have to do a thing.
A straightforward outlet or switch replacement typically runs $150–$350 depending on the type and location. GFCI upgrades and new circuit runs cost more — generally $250–$600+ per location depending on what's involved. Adding USB outlets, smart switches, or 240V circuits varies by scope. The only way to give you an accurate number is a free on-site look. 📞 (916) 472-0271 | → Get a Free Estimate
Signs it's time to call an electrician: outlets that feel warm or hot, plugs that fall out easily, outlets that spark when you plug something in, outlets that have stopped working entirely, or two-prong ungrounded outlets in areas where GFCI protection is now required. If you're unsure, we're happy to take a look at no charge.
Most single-outlet or switch replacements take 30–90 minutes. Larger projects — like upgrading all bathroom and kitchen outlets to GFCI, or installing multiple new circuits — typically run a half-day to full day. We'll give you a realistic timeframe during the estimate so you can plan accordingly.
