Extension cords are a symptom, not a solution. OSB adds outlets where you actually need them in Waban homes and offices — including GFCI protection, USB outlets, and dedicated circuits for appliances that keep tripping.
“Storm took out our power for four days last winter. This year we have a standby generator that started itself while we were asleep.”
“Six recessed lights in the kitchen and a dimmer that actually works. The ceiling patch was so small I didn't need a painter.”
“Breaker had been tripping for months and two other companies just replaced parts. OSB traced it to a backstabbed outlet behind a bookcase in twenty minutes.”
A new outlet on an existing nearby circuit is one of the cheapest calls we run. Cost rises if the run is long, the wall is plaster, or the circuit needs to come from the panel.
Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, basements, laundry areas, outdoors, and anywhere near a sink. If your Waban home predates those rules, retrofitting is quick.
Yes, either by pulling a ground or by GFCI-protecting the circuit and labelling it correctly. We'll tell you which applies in your house.
It's sharing a circuit with something else. A dedicated 20 amp circuit fixes it permanently.
We do — weather-resistant receptacles in in-use covers, GFCI protected, on the exterior wall or deck where you need them.
