What's going on

A lot of the buildings in Milwaukee County and eastern Waukesha County were built well before current code, so this job often turns up something the original builder wouldn't have planned for. Call before you buy the unit if you're not sure it fits the space, the electrical, or current code -- a quick site visit upfront saves a return trip.

How it gets fixed

A licensed partner technician handles the GFCI outlet installation itself -- diagnosing the issue on-site, walking you through what's wrong in plain terms, and getting it resolved in as few visits as possible. This is a licensed-trade job in Wisconsin in most cases. A permit may be required depending on scope, and we handle that as part of the visit.

What GFCI outlet installation costs in Milwaukee

Most GFCI outlet jobs in the Milwaukee area run $150-$1,200, depending on access, age of the building, and what the crew finds once the work starts. If the job is likely to run above your approval limit, you get a quote in writing before work continues, so there's no surprise invoice.
