Whether first setting up or upgrading an outdoor electrical system, you need a trained professional, or you could face serious complications, safety hazards, and code violations.

We have the technical expertise to plan, design, and install the electrical elements of your outdoor living space. You can expect high-quality service and 100% satisfaction guaranteed when you hire Express Electrical for:

The National Electrical Code requires that all outdoor outlets be watertight and have a protective covering. Outdoor receptacles must also have ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection. A GFCI protects against electrical shock when devices are used in wet or damp areas or when a tool, appliance, or cord is damaged.

Outdoor outlet installation avoids using extension cords, which can be a safety hazard. We install receptacles so they’re fully protected against the elements. Aside from knowing how to install an outlet properly, our electricians meet other requirements such as ensuring the outlet is accessible from the ground (it must be no higher than 6½ feet above ground level). We safely manage all types of outlet or outdoor switch installation.

We meet all requirements for security lighting installation, ensuring all lights are bright enough to deter potential intruders. Any light fixture installed in an exposed area must be listed for use in wet locations. Meanwhile, electrical boxes (mounted on surfaces) for fixtures must be weatherproof and raintight. 

Motion sensors aren’t a requirement but we can provide them, so you have even greater peace of mind at all hours of the day. We also install dimmers, transformers, and automation controls while ensuring every exterior part of your property is safe and secure. And, whether your project involves deck lighting installation or patio lighting installation, our team is ready to help.

We install damp-rated fans if your exterior space tends to be humid. They are suited for patios, garages, and other covered spaces and are also safe for use in bathrooms and laundry rooms. If your outdoor space is exposed to the elements, we install wet-rated fans that operate safely in rain, snow, and wind. These fans and their wires are sealed to improve durability and maintain efficiency.

Our pool and spa wiring experts install all the components to supply electric power to your pool pump, spa, or jacuzzi and its lighting. They’re familiar with all requirements for above-ground or inground pool wiring. If you need help with pond and fountain wiring, our team helps ensure your outdoor water features are fully functional.

Hard-wiring a spa or jacuzzi requires more power; a spa must be hard-wired if it uses more than 15 amps, while a jacuzzi must have a 24-volt connection if it’s wired to the main panel. A dedicated circuit is required for most jacuzzi tubs (complete with a four-wire connection and GFCI disconnect panel near the installation).

An outdoor electric vehicle charger must be at least 24 inches above the ground and connected to a GFCI breaker. An EV charger works as well outside as it does inside your garage. In some cases, an outdoor installation is more convenient.

Our electricians install weatherproof chargers and handle all aspects of installation including hardwiring your EV charging station (this avoids using an extension cable and frees up outlets in your home). They can also connect it to your smart home network. If necessary, they’ll upgrade your electrical panel to support the charger’s power requirements.

Kitchen appliances use a lot of power. The technicians at Express Electrical Services are precise, so your exterior lighting, appliances, and entertainment systems resist wear and tear and weather elements. They install exterior-grade electrical wiring for outdoor grills, ovens, refrigerators, dishwashers, and video and audio systems.
