Signs of need for home electrical repair

 Most of the electrical wiring in your home is located inside the walls and ceilings. It can be difficult to tell when a home electrical repair is needed because it may be hidden. However, for safety's sake and to prevent more serious problems, it is important to call a professional right away if you find problems or suspect a problem. Here are five signs that indicate the need for a home electrical repair:

Unusual smells or sounds. If you hear unusual noises or a burning or melting smell, call us immediately. It could be an overheated system or faulty electrical components.

Flickering lights. Do lights flicker when you switch on an appliance? Do they flicker even after changing bulbs? Call us, and we can repair the wiring and lights so they always stay bright.

Hot outlets. This can be a sign of an unsafe wiring condition or that components are worn and need to be replaced. Call an electrician immediately and switch off the circuit breaker to prevent the cover from melting or fire.

Circuit breakers tripping. If the circuit breaker trips, the system may be overloaded. We can help you find problems in the circuit breakers or upgrade the circuit breaker to meet the power requirements of your home.

Circuit breakers that trip. While static electricity is the cause of a startling shock when you walk on a carpet, it is not the cause of a shock feeling when you touch a light switch. An electrician can help prevent this problem from recurring.
