    What factors affect the cost of a switch or outlet repair?

    • Repairing or replacing: When a switch or outlet isn’t working right, the first thing to do is determine what, if anything, needs to be replaced. An Golden Rule electrician will always bring damaged parts to your attention, and work closely with your budget to find the best solution for you and your family.
    • Electrical modifications: Electrical modifications are sometimes necessary if a home’s wiring is particularly old. Modern appliances require more power than ever, so situations can come up where panel upgrades or even a whole-home or partial-home rewiring is necessary to accomplish the repair or replacement. We’ll alert you to these situations during our diagnostic and have financing available for repairs or upgrades with higher costs.
    • Contractor experience: When hiring a company or individual contractor to repair or replace your switch or outlet, it’s best to think in terms of the value provided rather than the cost by itself. Golden Rule keeps our prices fair and adds additional protections that smaller contractors just can’t provide. While their pricing may be slightly lower, Golden Rule‘s value simply can’t be beaten by any other electrical contractor in Des Moines.

    Switch & Outlet Repair/Replace FAQ


    Consider calling the expert electricians at Golden Rule if you notice:

    • Switches not working, or outlets not charging electronics/appliances
    • Faceplates that are either warm or hot to the touch
    • Sparks appear when appliances are plugged into an outlet
    • Tripped breakers when certain outlets or switches are used
    • Cracks along the faceplate or parts of the faceplate that have broken off


    We highly recommend against making any electrical repairs in your home unless you’ve been trained as an electrician. Electrical work always carries some danger, and hiring a professional ensures you and your family remain safe through the process.
