Alec and Scott made quick work of what turned out to be a simple solution. Very efficient, pleasant and explained the issue and recommendation clearly.
Both service calls to my house were with Nick, and I can't say enough good things about him. He's professional, courteous, communicative, and thorough. My only hiccup with Gem has been conflicting information from the office, but even with hiccups the staff have been professional and friendly. Thank you, Gem! You're the best, Nick!
great guy! vaery talented and professional
Joseph (Junior) from GEM Plumbing & Heating came out to do a check on our HVAC system for this season. He was very thorough, knowledgeable, and honest. Our system is in great shape after 16 years. Thank you Joe!!! We were on a contract plan, which was very reasonable, so we paid nothing at the time of service.
Our tech was Joseph (junior), Incredible experience came out the same day.Billed me for the service. Exceptional diagnostics, developed a number of options to fix the problem. We called four other places.First three never showed one showed and walked away, without figuring anything out. Our A/C has been out for 6 wks waiting for people to not show up. YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST CALL GEM FIRST
GEM responded very quickly. I was out of state when my tenant called stating the A/c system wasn't working. I called GEM to see if they would be willing to help me. I didn't have an account with them but they were more than willing to assist me with my broken A/C system.
Nick the technician was very knowledgeable and worked with me while I was out of state and with my tenants. He articulated very well, explaining all the issues, what the repair process would involve and the cost. There were no surprises. My tenants informed me that Nick was terrific !
Nick got the system up and running. Overall, it was a very positive experience and I would highly recommend GEM to anyone.
Great service. Timely response and got the job done. It’s on the pricey side but that’s expected given their quick response time. Joe was particularly good and have had him out twice on our property. Thanks!
From beginning to end the experience was amazing. It started with my man Walter who calmly with humor explained the process and my guys Ben and his partner who took cared of me and my family. They were professional and very knowledgeable about the process. Their patience when not finding my well was welcome. Awesome job
Thank you
The people are nice, punctual, pleasant.
And best of all great prices. I'm very happy with the service.
I was very impressed with Dory . He was extremely knowledgeable and very helpful.
Awesome service and friendly guys.

I had one of Gem Heating and Plumbing plumbers Christopher Rogan repair two broken gas line on an emergency basis. Chris was very professional, courteous and willing to make sure that the inspector was available once the job was completed. I was on a tight schedule to open the house. Gem Heating and Plumbing is a company that can be relied on.
Joan was very helpful – but his arrival was very delayed and communication was not great
They came over right away, diagnosed the problem and fixed it. Fast courteous service.
Chris from GEM arrived as scheduled and resolved a no hot water issue. I even got a GPS map for his truck to our location, and notified when he would arrive. No other company after several calls ( including one we have used for over 7 years would be able to help us for 10 days. With three women in the house that would not work.
Chris diagnosed and fixed our furnace which controls the hot water.
I will be using GEM in future for sure!
Excellent response, installation and knowledgeable services. Technicians were polite, prompt, professional, and kept us informed throughout the job. Would gladly use them for all future HVAC work and service.
Excellent knowledge followed by superior customer service
Jim was great! Pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful. He took the time to give me a few options and explained pros and cons. I am very thankful for his input and careful work! He replaced and upgraded faucets outside and new hoses to my washing machine!

Nick was great! He was presented with an unfixable AC problem. I was so impressed that he found this little piece of broken plastic tha caused such a water leak. He was very helpful in explaining options and estimate cost. He also climbed high up on a ladder inside and out to clean my filters. I’m so thankful.
!!
Employee was great. He explained what needed to be done and costs. Unfortunately, I had a leak in the AC line where it connected to a head unit on a system that I had installed by another company 4 years ago. All the refrigerant leaked out over that 4 year period. I feel this should have never happened and been found during their pressure test.
Anyhow, $3100 later, repaired. Just wished it hadn’t cost so much but not GEM’s fault. As far as the pricing, I have no idea.
Eric and the young lady were wonderful. They worked continuously and neatly all day
Michael M. from GEM was professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. He diagnosed the blockage problem and rectified it promptly. Five stars for his expertise!
David was a terrific through out the entire process. Great water filtration system installation and also great walking me through the process. Highly recommended.
Courteous, professional and a job well done. I will gladly refere and use Gem services again. Pricing was also responsible. Thank you
Friendly, very helpful and did a great job!
Dude was awesome, he knew his stuff and very professional

How to Know If It’s Time for New Electrical Outlets

If your outlets are outdated, damaged, or no longer meeting your needs, it may be time for an upgrade.

Small issues can point to larger safety concerns or limitations in how your system is designed to handle modern usage. The following signs can help you determine when new electrical outlets are the right next step.

If an outlet feels warm to the touch, looks discolored, or shows cracks, it could signal unsafe wiring or internal wear. Replacing these outlets helps reduce the risk of electrical hazards and protects your home.

Outlets that regularly trip breakers may be struggling to handle your home’s electrical demand. Installing new or additional outlets can help balance the load and improve reliability.

Older two-prong outlets don’t provide the grounding modern electrical systems require. Upgrading to grounded outlets improves safety and allows you to use today’s appliances and electronics with confidence.

Relying on extension cords or power strips is often a sign your home needs more outlets. Adding new outlets makes your space safer, more functional, and better suited to modern living.

Key Benefits of Installing New Electrical Outlets

Upgrading your electrical outlets is a simple improvement that can make a big difference in how your home functions and feels.

New outlets enhance safety, support today’s technology, and help your home keep up with everyday demands. Some of the benefits homeowners notice from new electrical outlets include:

New outlets reduce the risk of overheating, sparks, and electrical shock caused by worn or outdated receptacles. Modern options like grounded and GFCI outlets provide added protection for your family and your home.

Today’s homes rely on more devices than ever before, from smart TVs to home offices. Installing new outlets ensures your electrical system can safely and reliably power everything you use every day.

Adding outlets where you need them eliminates the hassle of extension cords and power strips. The result is a cleaner, more functional space designed around how you actually live.

Frequently Asked Questions About Electrical Outlet Installation

How do I know if I need new electrical outlets?

Signs like warm outlets, frequent breaker trips, two-prong receptacles, or heavy reliance on extension cords often point to outdated or unsafe wiring. These issues can increase the risk of electrical problems if left unaddressed. A GEM electrician can evaluate your system and recommend the right upgrade for your home.

Can you install outlets in older homes?

Yes, GEM installs outlets in older New England homes and works around the challenges of aging wiring and construction. Our electricians assess existing conditions and update systems safely and efficiently. All work is completed to current code standards with a focus on long-term reliability.

Do I need GFCI outlets, and where are they required?

GFCI outlets are required in areas where water is present, including kitchens, bathrooms, basements, garages, and outdoor spaces. They shut off the power quickly to reduce the risk of electrical shock. Installing GFCI outlets helps bring your home up to current safety standards.

How long does electrical outlet installation take?

Most outlet installations are completed in a single visit. The timeline depends on access, wiring conditions, and the number of outlets being installed. Your technician will explain the scope and expected timing before work begins.
