Electrical Services We Offer

Electrical repairs and installations for homes across Nashville and Middle Tennessee

Outlet Installation and Replacement

Outlets that spark, feel warm, don't hold plugs securely, or simply don't work are safety and convenience issues that should be addressed promptly. We replace worn standard outlets, upgrade to tamper-resistant outlets, and install new outlets in locations where you need them. All outlet work is done with proper wire connections and code-compliant box fill.

Switch and Dimmer Installation

Standard light switches, 3-way switches, 4-way switches, and smart switches are all in our scope. If you've ever tried to add a smart dimmer and ended up with a flickering light or a buzzing switch, the issue is usually neutral wire configuration — something we diagnose and resolve correctly. We install Lutron, Leviton, and most other residential smart switch brands.

Ceiling Fan Installation and Replacement

Installing a ceiling fan where no fan existed requires confirming the existing box is fan-rated, upgrading to a brace-mounted fan box if needed, and making correct wiring connections for both the fan motor and the light kit. Swapping an old fan for a new one is typically a 45-minute job. Installing in a new location where there is no existing box takes longer and requires attic or crawl space access.

Light Fixture Installation

Chandeliers, pendant lights, recessed can lights, semi-flush mounts, and vanity bars all require correct wiring connections and proper support for their weight. We replace dated fixtures, upgrade builder-grade lighting to statement pieces, and ensure all connections are made safely in junction boxes. For heavier fixtures like chandeliers, we verify or install proper ceiling support.

GFCI Outlet Installation

GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) outlets are required by code in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and exterior locations in all homes. Older Nashville homes frequently have non-GFCI outlets in these areas. We install individual GFCI outlets or upstream GFCI protection for multiple outlets on a circuit. This is a safety upgrade that also satisfies home inspection requirements for buyers and sellers.

Exterior and Security Lighting

Motion-activated security lights, porch and entry fixtures, soffit lighting, and pathway lighting all improve both security and curb appeal. We install exterior lighting with properly weatherproofed boxes and connections, ensure motion sensor coverage is correctly aimed and adjusted, and run wiring through attic or wall cavities when needed to reach new locations cleanly.

Doorbell Repair and Replacement

Wired doorbells that stop working are usually a failed transformer, a worn push button, or a dead chime unit. We diagnose the specific failure and replace the component, which is almost always less expensive than replacing the full system. For homes that want to upgrade to a video doorbell, we verify the existing transformer voltage and wiring configuration before installation.

Panel and Breaker Work

Tripped breakers that won't reset, breakers that feel warm or smell like burning, and double-tapped breakers are all safety concerns that need attention. We handle breaker replacement, double-tap corrections, and evaluation of panel capacity. Work that requires the utility to pull the meter or involves the main service is referred to a licensed master electrician.

What Electrical Work Requires a License in Tennessee

Tennessee state law requires a licensed electrical contractor for any work that involves new circuits, service upgrades, or panel replacements. 615 Home Pros handles the broad category of device-level electrical work: replacing outlets, switches, fixtures, fans, and similar fixture-level repairs.

The distinction is important: replacing a light switch with a smart switch is not the same as running a new circuit. Swapping a ceiling fan is not the same as adding a new circuit for a hot tub. We handle the former; licensed electricians handle the latter.

When your job requires a licensed electrician, we'll tell you that upfront rather than attempt work outside our scope. We work with trusted licensed electrical contractors in Nashville and can make a referral if needed.

Electrical Warning Signs in Nashville Homes

Flickering lights that aren't caused by the bulb or fixture are a sign of a loose connection somewhere in the circuit. Loose connections generate heat and are one of the leading causes of residential electrical fires. Don't ignore flickering.

Outlets or switch plates that feel warm to the touch, circuit breakers that trip repeatedly under normal load, and burning smells from any electrical device are all serious warning signs that need prompt attention.

Nashville homes built before 1975 may have aluminum branch circuit wiring, which requires specific devices and connectors to be used safely. If your home was built in this era and you're not sure what type of wiring you have, mention it when you call. We'll check before doing any outlet or switch work.

Electrical Work FAQ

Common questions about our Nashville electrical services

Can you install a smart home device like a Nest or Ring?+
Yes. Smart thermostats, smart switches, smart dimmers, and video doorbells are all within our scope. The most common issue with smart device installation is the absence of a neutral wire at the switch location, which many smart devices require. We assess the wiring before installation and advise you on compatibility.
How do I know if an outlet needs to be replaced?+
Outlets that don't hold plugs firmly, outlets with visible scorch marks, outlets that feel warm, and outlets that don't work at all should be replaced. Outlets over 15 years old in high-use locations are worth replacing proactively. If an outlet trips GFCI protection repeatedly, there may be a wiring or moisture issue that needs diagnosis.
Can you install recessed lighting?+
Yes, for locations where there is attic access above the installation area or where existing wiring can be extended from an adjacent fixture. Installing recessed lights in a first-floor ceiling without attic access above it requires cutting drywall to run wire and is a more involved project. We'll tell you what's involved at your free estimate.
Is it safe to replace a light switch myself?+
For a straightforward single-pole switch replacement by someone comfortable with basic electrical work, yes. The risk is not turning off the right breaker first, or confusing the hot and neutral wires on older homes with non-standard wiring. If you're not confident, calling us is a $75 to $100 repair that removes the risk entirely.
How much does electrical work cost in Nashville?+
Outlet replacement runs $75 to $125 per outlet. Switch or dimmer replacement runs $75 to $150 depending on type. Ceiling fan installation where an existing box is present runs $100 to $175. Light fixture replacement runs $75 to $200 depending on weight and wiring complexity. We provide free written estimates for all jobs.
