Quick Answer: Toolbox Pro handles electrical work from $65 across Phoenix and the East Valley ceiling fans, outlets, switches, light fixtures, and more. We're insured, background-checked, 4.9★ rated, and we don't overcharge for jobs that don't need a licensed electrician.
Got a dead outlet? A ceiling fan still in the box? We fix the everyday electrical stuff that keeps homes safe and running. Fifteen-plus years doing this across the Phoenix East Valley.
What We Handle
Most home electrical work doesn't need a licensed electrician. It needs someone who knows 14-gauge from 12-gauge wire and why that difference matters.
Ceiling fan installation is our bread and butter. Hunter, Hampton Bay, Minka Aire, you name it we install them all. With existing wiring, expect about 90 minutes at $89. New wiring or a fan-rated box upgrade takes more time, but we quote you before we start.
Light fixture installation spans everything. Pendant lights. Recessed LED retrofits. Bathroom vanity bars, kitchen under-cabinet strips, porch motion-sensor floods, dining room chandeliers. If it plugs in and lights up a room, we do it. Most fixtures run $100 to $250 installed.
Outlets and switches make up a huge chunk of our work. Dead outlets, loose plugs, hot switches, flickering dimmers, GFCI replacements in kitchens and bathrooms, USB outlet upgrades, smart switches for Lutron or TP-Link. A single swap costs $75 to $150, part included.
We also install smoke detectors and CO alarms, doorbell wiring (Ring and Nest too), whole-house surge protectors, and run new circuits for dedicated appliances like a home office, EV charger prep, or hot tub.
When to Call Us vs. a Licensed Electrician
We're upfront about our limits. Outlet repairs, fixture installs, ceiling fans, switches, basic circuits that's us. Panel upgrades, 200-amp service changes, major rewiring, anything needing a city permit that's a licensed electrician's job. We'll point you to someone good if it's outside our scope.
Here's the reality: 80% of residential electrical calls don't need a licensed electrician. They need someone who shows up on time, knows what they're doing, and doesn't overcharge. That gap is where we live.
Common Electrical Problems We Fix Daily
Dead outlet: Usually a tripped GFCI somewhere upstream. We trace it, reset or replace, done. $75 to $120.
Breaker keeps tripping: Too many devices, a faulty appliance, or a bad breaker. We diagnose with a multimeter and amp clamp. $85 diagnostic fee, applied to the repair.
Ceiling fan wobbles or hums: Blade imbalance, loose bracket, wrong fan-rated box. We rebalance for $49 or swap and remount.
Flickering lights: Loose wire, bad dimmer compatibility, neutral issue. We check every connection point. Most come in under $150.
Hot light switch: Dimmer switches run warm naturally. Standard switches shouldn't. A hot regular switch means wiring trouble call us same day.

Our Tools and Approach
Professional-grade voltage testers. Fluke multimeter. Wire strippers, fish tape, full range of Romex gauges. Outlets and switches are mid-range Leviton or Hubbell not bargain stuff that fails in 18 months. Every connection gets properly torqued, pigtailed where it matters, tested before we close the box.
We work clean. Drop cloths under ceiling work, drywall dust vacuumed, wire scraps gone. Your house looks the same or better when we leave.
Service Areas
We cover Gilbert, Chandler, Mesa, East Mesa, Tempe, Scottsdale, Apache Junction, Queen Creek, San Tan Valley, and the whole Phoenix East Valley. Larger Phoenix metro? We can probably reach you. Check all service areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you install ceiling fans?
Yes, we install ceiling fans including wiring, mounting, and balancing. We can also replace existing light fixtures with ceiling fans.
Can you replace light fixtures?
Yes, we handle all light fixture installations — chandeliers, recessed lighting, vanity lights, and outdoor fixtures.
Do you handle electrical outlets?
We install and replace standard outlets, GFCI outlets for kitchens and bathrooms, and USB charging outlets.
Are you a licensed electrician?
No — we are a handyman service, not a licensed electrician. We handle standard tasks like ceiling fan installation, outlet replacement, fixture swaps, and dimmer switches. For panel work or rewiring, we refer to licensed electricians.
Can you install dimmer switches?
Yes. We replace standard toggle switches with dimmer switches, including smart dimmers (Lutron, Leviton) that are compatible with smart home systems.
Do you install smoke and CO detectors?
Yes, we install battery-operated and hardwired smoke detectors and combination smoke/CO detectors. We also test and replace existing units that are past their 10-year service life.
Can you add a new outlet to a room?
We can add outlets on existing circuits where there is accessible wiring. New circuits from the panel require a licensed electrician and permit.
Do you do outdoor lighting?
Yes, we install outdoor wall sconces, motion-sensor lights, landscape spot lights, and pathway lighting. Work is performed on existing low-voltage or 120V circuits.
How much does outlet installation cost?
Replacing an existing outlet (standard or GFCI) starts at $65. Adding a USB outlet or replacing a damaged outlet is the same price. Adding a new outlet on an existing circuit is $85-$120 depending on access.
Can you install a bathroom exhaust fan?
Yes. Replacing an existing fan is straightforward. Installing a new fan where there is none requires cutting drywall and running a duct to the exterior — we assess on-site and estimate accordingly.
