Should I Hire a Licensed Electrician?

Yes. Working with your home or office’s electrical systems without the right qualifications, experience, and tools is time-consuming and dangerous. While handy online tutorials may only take a few minutes to watch, completing any project can take hours or even your entire weekend, and the creator may not be qualified to provide guidance on your project. Improper installation or repairs can lead to injuries such as burns or electrocution, posing a significant fire risk to your home.

FAQ

Discover answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about our services and electrical systems:

What Types of Electrical Services Do You Offer?

Home and business owners trust us for comprehensive electrical solutions, including wiring and rewiring, panel upgrades and repairs, EV charger installation, and more.

Why Does My Breaker Keep Tripping?

Circuit breakers are designed to control the flow of electricity. A circuit breaker can trip because it’s overheating, due to too much power draw, a ground fault, or a damaged breaker.

What Is Knob and Tube Wiring and Why Is It Unsafe?

Knob and tube wiring is an outdated system that was popular in the 1940s. It’s very dangerous and not up to today’s codes and regulations, and should be replaced to prevent fire or electrocution.

Why Do My Lights Flicker?

If your lights flicker when you turn on an appliance like a washing machine or dishwasher, it’s typically because of the large power draw. We can upgrade your outlet or panel to prevent lights from flickering.
