Before you call

Is this an emergency?

Some failures genuinely cannot wait. Others are safe to book for a regular visit, often at a lower cost. Here is how we triage it.

Call now if

  • A burning or hot-plastic smell, smoke, or scorch marks at an outlet, switch, or the panel
  • Sparking, arcing, or a buzzing, warm, or discolored outlet or breaker panel
  • A breaker that trips immediately every time you reset it
  • Exposed, damaged, or arcing wiring, or a panel that is wet

This can wait for a regular visit

  • A single dead outlet with no burning smell and nothing else affected
  • One light fixture or switch that stopped working
  • You want to add outlets, a circuit, or a fixture (a scheduled job)
  • A GFCI that resets and holds after a one-off trip

When in doubt, call (253) 453-0478. We would rather talk it through than leave you guessing.

While you wait for us

What to do right now

  1. 1

    Burning smell or sparks? Cut the power

    Switch off the affected circuit at the breaker, or the main breaker if you cannot tell which. If you see smoke or flame, get everyone out of the house and call 911 first, then call us.

  2. 2

    Keep water and electricity apart

    Do not touch a panel, outlet, or switch with wet hands or while standing in water. If an outlet is wet or the panel is damp, leave it alone, keep clear of the area, and call us.

  3. 3

    Do not keep resetting a tripping breaker

    A breaker that trips repeatedly is doing its job, there is a fault behind it. Leave it off and call. Forcing it back on can overheat the wiring and start a fire.

The process

What to expect when we arrive

  1. 01

    Safety-first, prioritized response

    Burning smells, sparking, and hot panels are prioritized. We make the situation safe before anything else, then find the cause.

  2. 02

    Track down the real fault

    We work the circuit methodically with a meter to find the loose connection, failed device, or short behind the symptom, instead of guessing.

  3. 03

    Make it safe, then quote

    We secure the hazard, then give you a clear quote before the repair. No temporary fix that leaves a hazard in the wall.

  4. 04

    Repair to code and verify

    We repair it properly and to code, then test the circuit under load to confirm the problem is gone for good.

Questions

Common questions about emergency electrical repair

Is a burning smell or sparking outlet an emergency?

Yes. A burning smell, scorched or sparking outlets, a hot panel, or a breaker that will not stay set are all reasons to call now: (253) 453-0478. These are early warnings of a wiring fault that can become a fire.

Will the emergency repair still be done to code?

Always. We are licensed (WESTSCS752MT) and we do electrical work safely and to code, even on an emergency call. We never leave a temporary hazard behind to be dealt with later.

Can you restore power tonight?

In most cases we can make the situation safe and restore power on the same visit. If a part has to be sourced, we secure the hazard, keep what is safe energized, and tell you exactly what is next.

Do you charge more for after-hours electrical work?

You always get a clear quote before any work begins, with no surprise charges. We do not add an after-hours or emergency upcharge: our rate is the same whether you call at 2pm or 2am.
