Why American Fork Homeowners Call for Outlet Installation

American Fork's mix of established and new neighborhoods creates a clear divide in outlet adequacy. Homes built before 1990 — particularly along State Street and in the neighborhoods near the downtown core — have far fewer outlets than modern living requires. Kitchens have one or two counter outlets instead of the six or more that current code requires. Bedrooms have a single outlet on one wall. Garages often have just one receptacle by the door. We add outlets, upgrade ungrounded receptacles, and install USB-equipped outlets throughout American Fork homes. For newer homes, the work is usually more targeted: an extra outlet in the garage, USB outlets in bedrooms, or an outdoor receptacle on the patio.

Outlet Installation in American Fork — FAQ

Why are the outlets in my older American Fork home only two-prong?

Two-prong outlets were standard before grounding became required by code in the 1960s. The wiring behind them likely has no ground wire. We can upgrade them with properly grounded circuits, or in some cases install GFCI-protected three-prong outlets as code allows.

How much does it cost to add outlets?

A new outlet on an existing circuit typically costs $125–$250. A new circuit from the panel costs more. Replacing existing outlets (standard swap) is less. We provide exact pricing for your specific situation.

Can you add an outlet in a brick or concrete wall?

Yes, though it requires different techniques. Surface-mounted conduit and boxes work well on concrete and brick without the damage that cutting into masonry would cause. The result is clean and code-compliant.
