Many electrical problems stem from:

  • Loose or faulty wiring

  • Burning Smell or Sparks – If you notice a burning odor or see sparks when plugging something in, call an electrician immediately.

  • What should I do if my breaker keeps tripping?

    If a breaker trips repeatedly, unplug appliances from the affected circuit and reset the breaker. If it continues to trip, the circuit may be overloaded or there could be a wiring issue. Contact an electrician to diagnose the problem.

  • Why are some of my outlets not working?

    Dead outlets could be caused by a tripped GFCI outlet, a loose wire connection, or a faulty circuit. A professional electrician can safely identify and fix the issue.

  • What causes an electrical burning smell in my home?

    A burning smell from an outlet, switch, or panel can indicate overheating, damaged wiring, or an electrical short. Turn off power to the affected area and call an electrician immediately.

  • Why do my lights dim when I use appliances?

    Voltage drops can occur if a high-power appliance is pulling too much current. This could indicate an overloaded circuit or that your electrical panel needs an upgrade.

  • Can I troubleshoot my electrical issue myself?

    Basic troubleshooting, such as checking for a tripped breaker or testing outlets, is fine. However, diagnosing and repairing electrical faults should always be handled by a professional to avoid fire hazards and electrical shocks.

I was originally wanting a new dedicated circuit installed. When they arrived they looked over the location and let me know of an alternate way to get the same results I wanted and at a lower cost than originally estimated. Work was done very quickly and very honestly by telling me other ways to meet my electrical needs without trying to upsell me on unnecessary upgrades. Great work, would recommend

Jay came out and not only helped us by installing an outlet in our crawlspace but also went out of his way to identify a leak we had that had nothing to do with electrical work, which our home inspector had missed. We appreciate their quality of work and expertise to go above and beyond in identifying areas of concern outside of their scope and fitting us in their schedule as promptly as they could!

Very professional and friendly! When we asked to add things to the bid partway through, they were very accommodating. I never felt talked down to or like I was an inconvenience for asking something dumb. Very happy with the work they did!
