FAQs

What areas of Greenback do you service for electrical repairs?

We cover the entire Greenback area, including downtown, rural outskirts, and surrounding subdivisions. If your ZIP code begins with 37742 or any neighboring Greenback-adjacent code, one of our licensed electricians can typically reach you within the same day.

Why does my circuit breaker keep tripping and how can you fix it?

A repeatedly tripping breaker usually indicates either an overloaded circuit, a short circuit, or a ground fault. Our technicians perform a load calculation, inspect wiring insulation, and test the breaker itself. Solutions range from redistributing loads and tightening loose connections to replacing faulty breakers or upgrading the service panel if the existing one is undersized.

Can you upgrade my older Greenback home’s electrical panel to handle modern appliances?

Yes. Many Greenback homes still operate on 60- or 100-amp panels that can’t safely power today’s HVAC units, EV chargers, and smart devices. We provide 200-amp and 400-amp panel upgrades, including new meter bases, grounding systems, and whole-home surge protection. All work is permitted and inspected per Blount County codes.

What should I do if an outlet feels hot or smells like it’s burning?

Turn off the power to that outlet at the breaker panel immediately and avoid using it. Heat or a burning odor signals loose connections or internal arcing, which can start a fire. Call us for an urgent service visit—our infrared scanners and receptacle testers allow us to diagnose and replace bad outlets or damaged wiring on the spot.

Do you offer 24/7 emergency electrical service in Greenback?

Absolutely. Power loss, sparking panels, storm damage, or any situation you deem unsafe qualifies for emergency assistance. Our on-call team is available nights, weekends, and holidays, and we arrive with fully stocked vans so most repairs are completed during the first visit.

How much does a typical electrical repair cost, and do you provide estimates up front?

Costs vary by scope: minor outlet replacements start around $125, breaker replacements average $175–$250, and panel upgrades typically range from $1,500 to $3,000. We offer free on-site estimates in Greenback, present a written quote before work begins, and stand behind our pricing—no hidden fees.
