professionalism
“Installed a dedicated garage outlet and LED lights. Courteous, knowledgeable, and excellent work.”
A GFCI trips when it detects a ground-fault imbalance, even if you think nothing is plugged in. Hidden issues often include moisture in an outdoor box, loose connections, or a wiring fault “downstream” on the same circuit. Aging devices also nuisance-trip; many GFCIs last about 10 years. Dawson’s Electric & Air diagnoses wiring, replaces worn GFCIs, and ensures code‑compliant protection in Raleigh and nearby cities.
Quick checks:
- Press TEST, then RESET.
- Dry outdoor/in-garage boxes.
- Check other outlets on the same GFCI circuit.
- Call if trips repeat.

Outlet repair costs vary by issue and are confirmed after on-site diagnosis. Dawson’s Electric Inc discusses options with you first and provides upfront pricing before any work starts. Common repairs include fixing tripped breakers or loose connections, replacing worn GFCIs (typical service life about 10 years), and resolving downstream wiring faults that prevent a GFCI from resetting. Work is performed to building, state, and national code standards. Same-day service is available in Raleigh and nearby.
Quick checks you can try:
- Test/reset the GFCI.
- Check the breaker and any downstream outlets.

"Called yesterday, problem fixed today." — Karen A.
You can replace a light switch yourself only if you fully de-energize the circuit and are confident identifying the wires. If you’re unsure, it’s safer to have a licensed electrician handle it. Dawson’s Electric & Air performs code-compliant switch repair and installation, provides upfront pricing, and offers extended warranties on our work. We respond same day in areas like Raleigh and Cary, and we protect your home with shoe covers and drop cloths.
Quick checks:
- Turn off the correct breaker, then verify the switch is dead before touching any wires.
- Stop and call if you see scorch marks, loose wiring, or repeated tripping.

"LED tube light conversion and switch replacement was done quickly and efficiently, Perfect performance from initial call to successful installation and repair." — Keith C.
Yes, you can install a GFCI outlet yourself, but many homes are safer with a licensed electrician to ensure code-compliant wiring and proper testing. The National Electrical Code requires GFCI protection in specific areas. GFCIs often need replacement about every 10 years. Miswiring line and load can stop resets or leave downstream outlets unprotected. Dawson’s Electric & Air provides upfront pricing, same-day help, and code-compliant work in Raleigh, Apex, and nearby.
- Use the Test/Reset buttons to verify operation.
- Land line vs. load correctly.
- Use a weather-rated GFCI outdoors.
