Emergency electrician

Stay clear of sparking equipment and wet electrical areas; the visit traces whether the fault is at the breaker, wiring or utility side.

What this covers

Power outages at a single property, burning smells, sparking outlets or a panel that will not reset.

Do this first

  • Keep clear of sparking outlets, burning smells or water near electrical equipment.
  • Do not keep resetting a breaker that trips immediately.
  • Note which rooms lost power and photograph the panel if it is safe.

No power, a hot panel or a new circuit? Tell us what is happening. Request an electrician
