Question 1

Should I worry about lights that flicker?

Accepted Answer

Flicker in one fixture is often the fixture or a dimmer. Flicker across many rooms can mean a loose connection in the panel or service and should be checked soon.

Question 2

Is it safe to reset a tripped breaker?

Accepted Answer

One reset is reasonable. Repeated or instant tripping means there is a fault, so leave it off and call.

Question 3

Why does half my house have no power?

Accepted Answer

It can be a main breaker issue, a loose panel connection or a problem on one leg of the service. We test the panel and the meter and tell you if the utility needs to be involved.

Question 4

Can a tenant book the visit?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Tell us who approves and pays for the work, and we will coordinate with them.

Question 5

Will troubleshooting tell me if my panel needs replacing?

Accepted Answer

Troubleshooting shows whether a repair is enough. If the panel is worn or out of capacity, we will tell you and quote an upgrade as a separate option.

Question 6

How much does electrical troubleshooting cost?

Accepted Answer

The repair price depends on what testing finds, so we explain it and quote it on site. You approve before any work begins.
