Expert Electrical Troubleshooting in Maine

FAQ 1 — Why does my outlet stop working?

Most outlet failures are caused by loose wiring, a tripped GFCI upstream, damaged connections, or worn-out outlets. A licensed electrician can diagnose the issue quickly and replace the outlet safely.

 

Yes. A warm outlet can signal loose connections, overloaded wiring, or arcing inside the device. Stop using it and schedule service immediately—this is a common fire hazard.

Yes. Maine electrical code requires GFCI protection in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, basements, crawl spaces, unfinished areas, and outdoor locations. We install and upgrade GFCIs to meet current code.

Tamper-resistant (TR) outlets have built-in safety shutters that prevent objects from being inserted. They are required in most residential spaces and are a common upgrade during outlet replacement.

 

Yes. We can install new outlets in most rooms and locations, including adding outlets to reduce extension cord use. We’ll check wiring capacity, code rules, and placement needs before installation.

 

 

 

A GFCI trips when it detects a ground fault or moisture intrusion. If it trips repeatedly, it may signal a wiring problem, damaged outlet, or appliance issue that needs professional evaluation.

 

If you’re not trained, it’s not recommended. Outlet replacement can involve incorrect wiring, loose connections, and code violations that create shock or fire risks. We ensure safe installation and full code compliance.

Most single outlet replacements take under an hour. New outlet installations can take longer depending on access, wiring distance, and whether a dedicated circuit is needed.

 

Pricing depends on the type of outlet (standard, GFCI, outdoor, smart outlet), access to wiring, and whether a new circuit is needed. We provide upfront, flat-rate pricing before work begins.

 

Burn marks, loose plugs, cracking sounds, flickering power, warm faceplates, or outlets that won’t hold a plug tightly are all signs replacement is needed.

  • Sparking, popping, or crackling when plugging something in

  • Loose outlets that shift or won’t hold a plug tightly

What Your Neighbors Are Saying About Us

Hymie G.
Excellent company in all aspects. The office was very accommodating and found an early time to send someone to service our problem. He came just as they had forecast and timely communicated when he was en route. The electrician was extremely skilled, worked very quickly, answered all our questions very clearly and was a joy to interact with.
Igor T.
I had the pleasure of meeting you all today, and I must say, you’re all incredibly talented and friendly. The electrician was also fantastic - he came over to give us an estimate, but instead of just giving us a quote, he decided to take matters into his own hands and got the job done right away! I was so impressed and happy that you answered the phone so promptly.
Dale B.
Great experience with Bann Home Electrical Services. Service was done as expected. On time, professional, and completed our service to our expectations with no delays or hidden charges. Our tech. Larry was great! Communicated well. Very polite and professional. He even let me make a video explaining how to use our generator switch so we would have no issues.
Toni L.
Bann was very receptive to my call and was able to send out a technician in a timely manner. All I needed was a dryer receptacle replaced. Larry did the job quickly and professionally. I am very happy with the work and will definitely call Bann again for any electrical work.
Charles S.
Larry was amazing. Polite, professional, and competent. He went the extra mile and figured out our switch change by using a remote instead of cutting into the wall. He even drove over to Hone Depot to pick it up for us. Amazingly helpful! We would have him back for any other electrical work.
