Do-It-Yourself Project
The guys were super nice, I loved that they did the work immediately. Also after having a discussion with them about the static electricity from a lightenimg strike we had and it fried everything they suggested a surge protector to keep that from happening again. So we did that.
Scheduled an appointment with Mr Electric of Fort Worth and received a call they were able to show up early and had Dylan show up on time stocked with a full truck. He was able to diagnosis the issue quickly and restore my power to a few plugs that were causing the breakers to trip continuously. Dylan was very knowledgable, clearly explained the cause and how he would fix the issue, and addressed all concerns that we had. He was replaced two breakers and installed 2 new outlets along with diagnosing the problem in about an hour. Very quick and so far seems to have resolved our electrical issue. Would definitely recommend Mr Electric of Fort Worth!
Dylan was so nice and always on time. Very qualified and explained everything he needed to do in a way I understood. My older house required an outside panel so I had a lot of work but Dylan and his helper worked together very well and finished on time so I was not out of power more than needed. Everything looked and worked great when done. I don't know how he was able to replace the cracked power pole and wiring on my roof so quickly and beautifully. I am very, very impressed with his skill level and would request him for any future work. The company is very well organized and office contact was a pleasure to work with(which is rare since these positions are usually underpaid)so reward her well, she is the "door" to your organization. She and Dylan sealed my deal!
Cody was professional, knowledgeable, and was able to provide me with a quick diagnosis pertaining to a wiring issue in one of my rooms. He gave me the price for the repair/modification and fixed the issue all in less than an hour. Thanks Cody!

Things You Will Need
Get Started
We provide reliable, professional electrical services backed by licensed electricians and upfront pricing. Our team is committed to safety, quality workmanship, and on-time service for every job. With trusted local expertise and customer-first care, we deliver solutions you can count on.
Before you begin, remember to always put safety first. This project does not involve playing with electrical wiring but does require cutting into the wall. Remember, children should be supervised by an adult when using sharp tools.
Step 1: Unpack the wall outlet kit and its components, instructions, and any tools that came with the kit.
Step 2: Select a location. Make sure to select a spot you would expect to see an electrical outlet. Choose a room that is visited infrequently. Also, opt for an area where you expect least electrical wires.
Step 3: Trace an outline. Your wall outlet kit likely came with a stencil. Use a stud finder to make sure your selected spot does not have a stud behind the wall. Trace an outline of the outlet using the stencil.
Step 4: Cut around the outline. Use a drywall saw to cut out an insert for the wall outlet safe. Be careful not to damage any electrical wiring. Contact a local electrician in Fort Worth at Mr. Electric of Fort Worth as soon as possible if you cut any wires on accident.
Step 5: Insert the safe. Drop the safe into place. Most kits come with built-in flanges that will tighten the outlet safe against the wall.
Step 6: Secure the safe in place. The “wall outlet” safe kit should have come with a small screw to help secure the holder into place. Push the screw into place and rotate it 180 degrees using a screwdriver.
All finished! You are now equipped with your own deceptively designed safety deposit box. We hope you enjoyed the process!
