Outlet and Switch Relocation in Belle Savanne
Belle Savanne service from Hayes Electrical. Call (337) 570-2327.
Hayes Electrical handles outlet and switch relocation for homes and businesses in Belle Savanne and the surrounding Southwest Louisiana area. Licensed, bonded, and backed by our Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee.
Belle Savanne service area.
From our Lake Charles shop.
Trucks dispatch out of 803 W Bayou Pines Dr, Ste D, Lake Charles, LA 70601. Most days a crew is already inside Calcasieu Parish on another job, so the drive is short. For after-hours calls we roll one out from the shop.
Outlet and switch relocation in Belle Savanne comes up most often during kitchen remodels, after furniture rearrangement in older living rooms, and when a homeowner finally removes the floor-to-ceiling drapes that hid a 1955-era outlet behind a piece of furniture for decades.
Relocation work starts with confirming the existing circuit can host the device at the new location (no overloading, no excessive run length per NEC 220 voltage drop), then planning the route. In a Belle Savanne home with plaster walls, we cut minimal openings using old-work boxes (typically 18 cubic inches single-gang) and fish NM-B through the wall cavity. The old box location is closed with a blank cover and listed splice if conductors must remain, or the wire is pulled back to the source and abandoned cleanly.
The Lake Charles AHJ does not require a permit for relocation of a single existing device on the same circuit. Multiple-device or new-circuit work is permitted and we file it.
What we look at for this job
Permits and inspections
Belle Savanne is a Lake Charles neighborhood inside city limits, so electrical permits are issued by the City of Lake Charles Building and Permit Division. We pull the permit and schedule inspections. Permit work runs under LA Lic #73821. You do not touch the paperwork.
What's covered
Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee on every install. If our work fails because of how we put it in, we come back and fix it at no charge. Documented in writing at handoff and stays with the home.
Why hiring a licensed electrician matters.

What Southwest Louisiana says about our work
Real reviews from real customers across Lake Charles, Sulphur, Moss Bluff, and the surrounding parishes.
I would give Hayes Electrical a 10-Star rating if I could. Superior workmanship and performance and highly skilled technicians for a great customer experience. I highly recommend Hayes Electrical for any and all of your electrical repairs and upgrades.
Hayes Electrical is the most professional and friendly electrical service in the Lake Charles area! After we were having issues with our Generac and wanted to be prepared for the hurricane season, Hayes Electrical was quick to diagnose and repair the issue! Mr. Dorian was very polite and knowledgeable! When he came out to make the repair he kept us in the loop about exactly what he was doing and made sure we understood how to operate the Generac! Would definitely recommend Hayes Electrical to everyone!
We turned to the company for help to find out the reason why our generator stopped working, fix the problem and start it. We were served by Dorian, a very nice young man, a good specialist and a professional in his field. Everything went well, Dorian did diagnostics, invited a mechanic and our generator works. We recommend this company if you have problems with the generator.
Common questions for Outlet and Switch Relocation in Belle Savanne
Can you move an outlet in my Belle Savanne kitchen without cutting up the wall?
We cut only what the box requires (about three by four inches). Old-work boxes and fish-tape routing let us keep the wall mostly intact.
What do you do with the old hole when you move a switch in my Belle Savanne home?
If conductors remain (typical for a switch leg), we install a blank cover on the existing box. If the wire is being pulled back entirely, we patch the opening flush.
Will you match the new outlet to my old Belle Savanne ivory toggle plates?
Yes. We stock ivory, white, and almond decora and traditional devices and plates, and we will use the style that matches what you already have.
