Professional GFCI Outlet Installation in South Jersey
Electricity is an essential part of our daily lives, but when it comes to safety, not all outlets are created equal. If you’re a homeowner or business owner in South Jersey, ensuring your electrical system is up to code and protected with Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlets is a must.
At DK Electrical Solutions, we specialize in GFCI outlet installation, ensuring your home or workplace is both safe and code-compliant. Whether you’re upgrading outdated outlets, installing new ones, or needing a full safety inspection, our Certified Master Electricians are ready to help.
Why GFCI Outlets Are a Non-Negotiable Safety Feature
GFCI outlets are designed to protect you and your family from electrical shocks. Unlike standard outlets, they constantly monitor the flow of electricity. The moment an imbalance is detected—like if water comes in contact with an electrical source—the GFCI shuts off power almost instantly, preventing potential electrocution.
Key Benefits of GFCI Outlets:
- Shock Prevention: Automatically cuts off power if a ground fault is detected.
- Fire Reduction: Reduces the risk of electrical fires caused by faulty wiring or moisture exposure.
- Code Compliance: Required by the National Electrical Code (NEC) in specific locations.
- Property Protection: Prevents electrical surges that could damage appliances and electronics.
Where Are GFCI Outlets Required?
If your home or business is missing GFCI outlets in key areas, it’s time for an upgrade. The NEC requires GFCI outlets in:
✔ Bathrooms – Water and electricity don’t mix, making bathroom outlet installation a must.
✔ Kitchens – Any outlet within six feet of a sink must have GFCI protection.
✔ Laundry Rooms – Washing machines and utility sinks increase the risk of ground faults.
✔ Outdoor Areas – Patios, decks, and exterior outlets need GFCI protection due to exposure to moisture.
✔ Garages & Basements – Damp areas are more prone to electrical hazards.
✔ Pools & Hot Tubs – Essential for avoiding water-related electrical risks.
If your home was built before GFCI outlets became a requirement, it may be out of code—and that could mean a serious safety risk. Our team at DK Electrical Solutions can inspect and upgrade your outlets to keep your home protected.

This was my first experience with DK ELECTRICAL. I called yesterday with my problem ( Thursday) , scheduled for an appointment (Monday), and was called again this morning with an offer to take the appointment today due to another’s cancellation. I was thrilled!! My technician, Joe Linarello was on time, texted with photo ID before arrival, very professional and I appreciate that he put shoe coverings on, and was able to fix my issue promptly. We also discussed the possibility of replacing my electrical panel in the near future, and Joe gave me excellent pricing and much needed updated safety features with the installation. I am looking forward to being a regular customer with DK ELECTRICAL, and I would highly recommend this company for all your electrical needs. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Bob with DK Electrical was fantastic. Learned a lot during the inspection but did not feel pressed with a hard sell
Great attention to details and knowledge of options for solving complex problems.
So happy with the service from DK and Joe L. So informative, thorough. We had a little arching issue with an outlet and Joe fixed the issue, made us feel safe. Thanks for the quick service! Will definitely be using them again.
Bob did a great job by providing me a price quote for the project after on-site checking those red-tapped area and hearing me out about concerns from other important stakeholders.
I had new outlet run for my new electric fireplace in my tv room. It was run directly from the breaker panel to the outside wall in my den. It included a new 20 amp breaker going to a 20 amp quad outlet behind the unit. Joe and his coworker did a great job. Clean and neat and above all quickly done. I couldn’t be happier. I have used this company at least 4 other times. Always professional and courteous.
This is amazing company whom I have dealt with for several years for all my electrical concerns. Every member has been kind and knowledgeable towards the work when explaining their services. Appointments are given timely, and the job is completed as well as safety checks to your home. I highly recommend this company!
Brendan was friendly and knowledgeable, and he installed the light fixtures quickly and well. Things are now much better in my kitchen, dining room, and closets.
Wanted to give a shoutout to Bob from DK Electric Solutions who done some work in my home yesterday. What an amazing and knowledgeable young man. Not only did he explain exactly what was needed, this guy went way above and beyond what he needed to. And my guy stayed late (no extra cost) to make sure we were good. Even missed the kids parent teacher conference. Lol His wife made it tho. During these times when customer service seems to be out on the back burner, it’s extremely satisfying to see a company that prides itself on making sure the customer is a happy. They for sure have my future business.
Dk replaced our whole fuse box and also replaced our baseboard heaters . Service was excellent and they were extremely clean and efficient. I always believed you get what you pay for and that’s the truth with this company. I highly recommend them for all electric needs .
Bob did a great job. Answered all of our questions and solved all the issues
Joe was very professional and educated on what my specific concerns were. I will absolutely be reaching out again!
Installation of outdoor post lamp. Very professional, explaing the process and answering all questions. Installation went smoothly and the results were as expected of professional work.
Joe was very knowledgeable and professional, the price was very reasonable, will call again next time
Great service and special shout out also to Rebecca, who was so pleasant to deal with over the phone. Will definitely reach out again for any specific electrical needs.
Bob was amazing! He was patient and took the time to explain all of his findings. I had a small list of electrical odds and ends for him to do and he had them completed within the hour. (Improperly grounded outlets and switches, replacing electrical panel switches, etc.)
Joe was great, DK arrived promptly and did the work. I'm not a guy that likes to know how the sausage is made, I like techs and companies that come in, find problem, fix problem, without explaining what they are doing every step of the way. I really don't care, and I also have no idea what they are talking about most of the time. I'm a grocer, and an operations guy. Not an electrician. DK and Joe are perfect if you are like me and too busy to have someone explain something to you that you either don't have the need to retain or care. 5 stars...
Bob was excellent, explained the choices for a light fixture and smoke detectors and performed the installation efficiently. Highly recommend him

Great job, ask for Barry. He and his assistant fixed several problems that we’ve been having with our switches and outdoor lights. Extremely knowledgeable, hard working and thorough. Very fairly priced. Excellent company. Will only use them for future needs. 8/2025 - Used DK again, Brendan, to install an EV charger in our garage. Excellent job. Totally accommodating, professional, and had it installed one week from my request. Really appreciate a company like this, as it is hard to find a great contractor like DK.
