Re: [DIY] Painting electrical outlets?

 

ask the electrician how much it would cost to do the remaining ones in the color you pick and how much to change the ones already installed. generally they all cost the same to buy. you can change the installed ones later yourself if you are careful. the very last resort would be to paint them!

All the outlets here were brown - and at 3am this morning, I realized all the new ones the electrician is putting in are brown — but the walls will all be white.  There are way too many to have him replace them, what is the danger of using a good paint and carefully painting them.   They asked if we were going to sheetrock over the tongue and groove walls that are already in, and I said no, would just be painting them white.  But none of us picked up on the fact he was installing brown outlets.  I'm afraid to even mention it to him.       We can change them out over time but not all at once.
