Frequently Asked Questions
My breaker keeps tripping. Is that dangerous?
Repeated tripping usually means an overloaded circuit or an electrical fault. The breaker is doing its job, but the underlying cause should be checked.
Can you fix just one dead outlet?
Yes. We troubleshoot single outlets and switches as well as whole-circuit issues.
Why are my lights flickering?
Flickering can come from a loose connection, a failing switch, an overloaded circuit or a problem with the fixture. We trace the cause before recommending a repair.
What should I do if an outlet feels hot or smells burned?
Stop using the outlet and turn off the circuit if it is safe to do so. If there is smoke, sparking or an active fire, call emergency services. Contact us to inspect the circuit before using it again.
Do you handle aluminum wiring?
Call us to discuss your specific situation. We’ll assess the wiring during a visit and explain what is needed.
Will you explain the electrical repair before starting?
Yes. We identify the fault, explain the repair and provide the price before work begins.
