Common questions
How do I know if I need an electrician?
Warning signs include breakers that trip repeatedly, lights that flicker or dim, outlets or switches that feel warm or look discolored, a burning smell, or a panel that still uses fuses. If something feels off, it is worth having it checked, even if it seems minor.

Panel upgrades, rewiring, and new circuits typically require a permit and inspection. We handle the permitting and inspection process as part of the job.
