From your first call to the final check

Three straightforward steps.

  1. 01

    Tell us what you need

    You don’t need to choose a device before calling. Tell us what you want it to do. Let us know where the home is and what you want to change.

  2. 02

    Review your written estimate

    We review the setup and access, then explain the equipment, work, and total. There’s no obligation to book.

  3. 03

    Schedule the installation

    After you approve, we arrange the work, install the agreed equipment, and check its operation.

Before you call

A few helpful answers.

Can you help choose the right outlet or control?

Yes. Tell us where it will go and how you want to use it. We review the wiring and equipment before recommending an option.

Does a dimmer cost the same as a standard switch?

The switch price covers the standard installation described here. Dimmers and smart controls are confirmed separately in your written estimate.

Will you need to open the wall?

We can often limit openings. The route, framing, insulation, and access determine what is possible. Your estimate explains any finish-work limitations.

What about permits?

We identify any required permits and inspections in your written estimate and coordinate them as part of the agreed work.

Which areas do you serve?

We serve Sacramento and nearby communities, including Citrus Heights, Roseville, Folsom, Fair Oaks, Carmichael, Orangevale, Rocklin, and Granite Bay. Call to confirm your address.
