We recommend scheduling a professional electrical inspection at least every five years for residential properties. However, if you notice unusual electrical behavior, such as flickering lights or tripped circuits, it's essential to have an inspection sooner. Regular inspections help identify potential issues before they become major problems, ensuring the safety and efficiency of your electrical system.

After scheduling an estimate appointment, a team member would come to your house to inspect the work you want done. After inspecting, they would give you a quote on how much the work will cost.

In many cases, light flickering is caused by an outdated electrical system. If that’s the case, your electrical panel or wiring may need to be replaced. In other situations, the issue could be due to a loose wire, insufficient power supply, or another appliance on the same circuit drawing too much power. Regardless of the cause, it’s best to have the problem inspected by a licensed electrician.

If you reset your breaker and it trips again, that usually means there’s a bigger problem. Most of the time, it’s caused by an appliance that uses a lot of power — like a space heater, air conditioner, or even a hair dryer.

Sometimes, the circuit just isn’t strong enough for what’s plugged in. For example, if a 15-amp breaker keeps tripping, it might need to be upgraded to a 20-amp.

Always have a licensed electrician handle any repairs or upgrades.

A GFCI outlet (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is a safety device designed to protect you from electrical shock. It constantly monitors the flow of electricity in a circuit and instantly shuts off power if it detects even a small imbalance—such as electricity flowing through water or a person. GFCI outlets are commonly found in areas where water and electricity are both present, like bathrooms, kitchens, garages, and outdoor spaces. You can easily recognize them by the “Test” and “Reset” buttons on the front.
