Acadiana's Trusted Outlet and Switch Specialists
Pipes and Plugs has installed and repaired thousands of outlets and switches across New Iberia, Lafayette, Youngsville, Broussard, Maurice, Abbeville, Jeanerette, Loreauville, St. Martinville, Franklin, and Baldwin. With over 40 years of combined local experience and Electrical Contractor License #42498, our licensed electricians handle everything from a simple outlet swap to a full smart home switch upgrade.
We see what Louisiana weather and older homes do to outlets and switches. Outdoor outlets without weather protection get destroyed by rain and humidity. Older Acadiana homes still rely on outlets without proper grounding or GFCI protection, where current code now requires it. Loose outlets and worn switches sit in walls quietly until a connection arcs and starts a fire. Our team is trained to recognize all of it and replace or upgrade safely.
When you call Pipes and Plugs for outlet and switch work, you get a licensed Acadiana electrician who tests your wiring, follows code, and installs hardware that lasts. Most outlet and switch services are backed by our 5-year warranty.
