Quick Answer: Toolbox Pro handles electrical services in Phoenix and the East Valley starting at $65 outlet and switch repairs, light fixture installation, circuit troubleshooting, and 50+ other home fixes. Insured, background-checked, 4.9★ rated, and we tell you straight if you need a licensed electrician instead.
We've been doing electrical work for 15 years. Most of it doesn't require a license. It just requires someone who knows the difference between a ground wire and a hot wire, and won't create a fire hazard in the process.
What Electrical Services We Provide
Outlet and switch work is bread and butter. Standard 120-volt outlets, USB outlets, dimmer switches. If it's loose or sparking or dead, we find it and fix it. Same with light switches that stick, flicker, or stay on when they shouldn't.
Light fixture installation covers ceiling fans, pendant lights, recessed lighting, bathroom vanity fixtures. We do the rough-in, check the wiring against code, and make sure it looks clean when we're done.
We also replace outlets and switches, troubleshoot breakers, and run new circuits for kitchen remodels or home theater setups that need dedicated power. Panel upgrades, major rewiring, and permit work? That needs a licensed electrician. We'll recommend someone good and tell you upfront.
When You Actually Need Electrical Work
Most people book online because something stopped working. The breaker tripped again. An outlet won't hold a plug. The porch light's been burned out for months.
Renovations bring in new electrical needs. Converting a room, building a kitchen island, finishing a basement. Suddenly you need power where there wasn't any. We run the wire, install the boxes, test everything.
Contractors and builders book online when they're on deadline. We've done rough-in work, trim-out, and final touchups before closing.
Safety issues matter too. A GFCI outlet that won't stop tripping. A switch that feels hot. A light fixture that hums or flickers constantly. Not emergencies, but not things to ignore.
What It Costs
A simple outlet repair or switch replacement runs $75 to $150, parts included. Light fixture installation is typically $100 to $300 depending on the job a ceiling fan takes more time than a pendant light.
Replacing 2-4 outlets or switches usually costs $200 to $400. Running a new circuit goes $300 to $600+, depending on distance and whether we're pulling wire through existing walls. Troubleshooting a problem area takes $85 to $150.
Ballpark numbers. The final price depends on what we find. You get a clear answer before we start work.
How Long Does It Take
One outlet or switch swap takes 30 minutes to an hour. Turn off the breaker, pull the old device, check the wires, install the new one, test it.
Light fixture installation usually runs 1-2 hours. Faster if the wiring's already there. Longer if we have to run new wire or do structural work.
Circuit troubleshooting takes an hour or two. We check breakers, outlets, connections, and loads to find the problem. Running a new circuit could take half a day or a full day depending on the route and obstacles.
We work steady and get it right.
Tools and Materials We Use
Voltage testers, wire strippers, needle-nose pliers, screwdrivers, a drill, and a good multimeter. Cheap testers lie. For bigger jobs, we bring conduit, Romex wire (14/2, 12/2, 10/2), and proper junction boxes.
Outlets and switches come in different grades. We use mid-range stuff from Leviton or Hubbell. The cheap stuff from big box stores dies in 18 months. We don't use those.
Breakers, wire connectors, cover plates. Everything meets code. If we install it, it'll work in five years.
Service Areas
We serve Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, and greater Phoenix. Call if you're outside the area sometimes we can work it out.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a licensed electrician for this work?
Some states require permits and licensed electricians for panel upgrades, major rewiring, 240-volt hookups. Most residential outlet, switch, and light fixture work doesn't. We know our limits and we'll tell you if you need a licensed electrician.
What if I have an electrical emergency at night?
We're not 24-hour emergency service. For a real emergency active fire, exposed wires, genuine danger call the fire department or a licensed electrician who handles emergency calls. For other stuff, we can usually get to you the next day or within a couple of days.
Why is my breaker tripping all the time?
Could be too many things plugged in, a faulty appliance, a ground fault, or a bad breaker. We test the circuit, check loads, inspect connections. Usually it's fixable and usually cheaper than you'd expect.
