⚡ The Industry Truth
What some companies say: "We recommend replacing every outlet in the house."
What's actually true: Most homes only need a handful of outlets addressed — usually kitchens, bathrooms, and the garage. We tell you exactly which ones actually need attention.
"This was my third experience with Truth Electric. My house was built in 2006, and we just discovered there were no GFI's for the outside plugs and in the garage. From scheduling to communication to professional work, all five stars. Bottom line...great experience!"
FAQ
Where does code require GFCI outlets?
Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, outdoor areas, and anywhere near a water source require GFCI protection under current code.
Why does my GFCI outlet keep tripping?
Usually a ground fault, a wiring issue, or a worn-out outlet that needs replacing — we diagnose it rather than just resetting it and hoping.
Can you add new outlets where I need them?
Yes, including dedicated circuits for large appliances, home offices, and workshops.
