TL;DR: Need an outlet, switch, or GFCI installed in NWA? Franklin handles single-device swaps and whole-house overhauls — interior outlets, outdoor weatherproof outlets, garage and attic outlets, GFCI/AFCI swaps, USB outlets, smart switches, dimmers, 3-way switches, and 240V circuits. Most outlet adds in NWA run $150–$400 depending on access. For straight installs, our office can quote you over the phone for free — no visit needed; that pricing covers the install only, not diagnostic or repair work.

Outlet types we install in NWA

Some are quick swaps. Some need a new circuit pulled all the way back to the panel. We do all of it.

1. Standard interior outlet add. A new duplex outlet on the same wall or near an existing one. Usually a same-day, $150–$250 install if there’s easy access through the attic or crawlspace.

2. Outdoor weatherproof outlet. Code requires an in-use (bubble) cover and GFCI protection. Common requests: front porch, back patio, holiday lighting, and pool/spa areas.

3. Garage outlet. Code now requires GFCI protection in garages and a dedicated circuit for refrigerators or freezers in unfinished spaces.

4. Attic outlet. Useful for attic fans, antennas, or holiday-light controllers. Quick install if there’s a junction nearby.

5. GFCI swap. Replacing a regular outlet in a kitchen, bathroom, garage, basement, laundry, or outdoor location with a GFCI device. Required by code in those areas.

6. AFCI swap. Replacing a regular outlet or breaker with an AFCI device. Required by code in bedrooms and most living spaces.

7. USB outlet. Outlet with built-in USB-A or USB-C charging. Popular near nightstands, kitchens, and home offices.

8. Smart outlet. Wi-Fi or Z-Wave outlets that integrate with Alexa, Google Home, or Apple HomeKit.

9. Tamper-resistant outlet. Code-required for new construction; recommended in homes with small kids.

10. 240V outlets. For electric dryers, ranges, hot tubs, welders, and EV chargers. Requires a dedicated circuit and the right breaker size.

Switch types we install

Most switch work happens during a remodel or because something broke. Common installs:

1. Standard switch replacement. Worn, scorched, or buzzing switch swapped for a new one.

2. Dimmer switch. Compatible with LEDs (look for “LED-compatible” on the package — older dimmers buzz with modern LEDs).

3. 3-way and 4-way switches. Hallway, stairwell, or large-room lighting controlled from multiple locations.

4. Smart switch. Wi-Fi switches that integrate with Alexa, Google Home, or HomeKit. Often need a neutral wire in the box, which older homes may not have.

5. Motion-activated switch. For pantries, closets, and laundry rooms.

6. Ceiling fan switch. Dual-control switches for fan + light combos.

7. Bathroom fan timer. Run-on timer that helps actually clear bathroom humidity.

If your existing panel is full and there’s no room for another circuit, you may need a panel upgrade first. We’ll evaluate both at the service call.

I was very taken by Jaxson’s knowledge of our furnace, when I explained to him what the furnace was doing he knew immediately what the problem was. He had my furnace fixed and working in about 20 minutes. I highly recommend Franklin to anyone with heating or cooling problems.

Justin did an excellent job. He explained everything he saw during his inspection. Very polite Thanks much

10/26/2026: Another 5 star experience with Adrian Morua. We received an estimate for an underground leak repair between the water meter and our house. My initial reaction was that it was expensive, but after watching Adrian work his tail off for several hours, it was worth every penny. He showed us the problem, fixed the leak and returned the area to a condition where we could barely notice anything had been done. Awesome job. 2/24/2025 Update: 5 stars for the heating and cooling side as well. Mickey serviced our 9 year old mini-split. Just like Michael on the plumbing side, he was professional, on time, thorough, received a well documented summary of the call via email, and they were very fairly priced. These folks are a breath of fresh air in a world where it feels like you've got to keep one hand on your wallet at all times. Phenomenal experience with Michael and Franklin Heating and Air. We decided to proactively replace our 22 year old water heater, and reached out to 5 services for estimates. 4 were competitive, and one was almost twice as much as the others, but Michael was responsive, gave a free in-person, comprehensive estimate, and explained everything very thoroughly. We went with them and his work exceeded our expectations, which are generally high. Thank you, Michael and the other folks at Franklin. You our now our go-to plumbers!

I hit the jackpot when I chose Franklin Heat and Air. Very through and professional service both on line and in person. Lee was exceptional. He was polite and very professional. Lee kept me informed every step of the way. I hope he returns the next time I need service. I will definitely use the company again.

FAQ

Common outlet & switch questions.

How fast can you install a new outlet?
Same-day or next-day for most outlet installs. We schedule a 1–2 hour window and complete most jobs in a single visit.
How much does outlet installation cost?
It depends on the work. Switch replacements start $156.65 and outlet replacements start $167.99. Extending an existing 120V circuit starts from $398.76, a new 120V circuit starts from $698.77 (does not include wire), and an EV charger circuit starts from $995 (up to 5 ft of wire + breaker). Pricing includes parts and labor; sales tax not included, and rates can shift over time, so your electrician will quote the exact flat-rate price on-site before any work begins.
Can you add an EV charger outlet?
Yes — see our dedicated EV charger install page. Level 2 EV charger circuits start at $995 (includes up to 5 ft of wire and a circuit breaker; price grows with longer runs or higher amperage). EV charger install quotes are free — no service-call fee, no obligation.
Are your technicians licensed and insured?
Yes. Every Franklin technician works under our Arkansas state licensing, and we're fully insured (general liability + workers' comp). Our team is also background-checked and drug-tested. Email us if you'd like proof of license and insurance.
Do you guarantee the work?
Yes — every job is backed by the Franklin Service Guarantee. If something we repaired or installed isn't right, we'll come back and make it right at no charge.
What is the $29 service call?
It's our diagnostic visit. A licensed technician comes out, figures out what's actually going on, and gives you an all-in flat-rate price for the repair before any work starts. If you decide not to move forward, you only owe the $29 — no penalty. Replacement quotes (water heaters, AC systems, panels, etc.) are always free.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We've partnered with GoodLeap to offer flexible payment options on home repairs over $1,000, upon credit approval. See our financing page for current promotions, or ask your technician for options before approving the quote.
Do you offer services other than this?
Yes — Franklin handles HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work. Same crew, same $29 service call, same flat-rate guarantee.
