Are you having trouble with flickering lights, a tripping circuit breaker or a loss of power in some areas?
Here are some things that you can check before you call.
  •  Basement, bathroom, outdoor or garage outlets that have no power could be due to a tripped GFCI outlet in one of these areas. Locate the GFCI Outlet and try resetting it.
  • No power to an outlet or furnace might be due to a switch being off. (it happens)
  • A breaker tripping may be due to a faulty lamp or appliance plugged into an outlet. When a tripping circuit breaker is cutting power to an area of your house, try unplugging and turning off the switches in the affected area. This may narrow the problem down to a bad lamp, appliance or light fixture.  
  • With most electrical panels, when a breaker trips, you need to move the breaker handle to the "OFF" position before resetting it back to the "ON" position

Of course, not all problems are that easy.
Flickering lights may be a sign of loose connections behind an outlet, switch or in a junction box or an improperly made Aluminum wire splice.  Breakers tripping or loss of power may be a sign of  a more serious problem

If your problem requires a service call, we can respond quickly.
Emergency service is available.


We don't just fix the problem. We take the time to explain the cause of the problem.

This outlet was a problem! The customer called us
and told us that the lights in the house had been
flickering when they used the hairdryer. This was going on
for quite a while. They called when the lights and outlet
stopped working.  What's in your walls?
