FAQs
How quickly can you arrive for an electrical emergency in Friendsville?
Because we keep on-call crews stationed in and around Friendsville 24/7, our average arrival time inside city limits is 45–60 minutes from the moment you approve the dispatch. We use GPS-tracked vehicles and dynamic scheduling software to route the nearest licensed electrician directly to your location so you get help as fast as physically possible.
What kinds of electrical repairs do you handle during a rapid-response visit?
Our emergency technicians are equipped to diagnose and fix most residential and light-commercial issues on the spot, including tripped breakers, blown fuses, partial power loss, faulty outlets or switches, smoking breaker panels, sparking fixtures, damaged wiring, and storm-related outages. If a repair requires special parts, we perform a temporary make-safe fix and return with the correct materials—always keeping you informed of costs and timelines.
Are your electricians licensed, insured, and background-checked?
Yes. Every field technician holds a current Tennessee journeyman or master electrician license, carries full liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and must pass annual background and drug screenings. Our licensing and insurance documentation is available upon request for complete peace of mind.
Is there an extra fee for after-hours or weekend emergency service?
We charge a modest emergency dispatch fee for calls received outside our standard 8 a.m.–5 p.m. window, but we keep it flat—no hidden surge pricing or mileage add-ons within the Friendsville service area. All rates are quoted and approved by you before any work begins, so you always know the total cost up front.
What safety steps should I take while waiting for the electrician to arrive?
If you smell burning, see smoke, or suspect an electrical fire, shut off power at the main breaker if it is safe to do so and call 911 first. For non-fire emergencies, unplug affected appliances, keep children and pets away from the area, and avoid touching any exposed wires or wet surfaces. Our dispatcher can walk you through additional safety measures tailored to your situation until help reaches you.
How do I schedule a non-emergency electrical repair or upgrade?
Call, text, or use our online booking form to choose a convenient appointment slot. We offer two-hour arrival windows Monday through Saturday, send confirmation texts, and provide real-time technician tracking on the day of service. Estimates are free for most planned repairs, panel upgrades, lighting projects, and code corrections in Friendsville and nearby communities.
