FAQs
Are your electricians licensed and insured to work in Newport?
Yes. All of our electricians carry current Rhode Island journeyman or master licenses and are fully insured for both liability and workers’ compensation. We also maintain local permits and adhere to Newport’s municipal codes and the latest National Electrical Code (NEC) standards, so your repair is completed safely and legally.
What kinds of electrical problems can you repair?
We handle virtually every residential and light-commercial repair, including but not limited to: tripped breakers and blown fuses, faulty outlets and switches, flickering or dimming lights, panel upgrades, GFCI/AFCI issues, ceiling-fan or lighting fixture replacements, wiring faults, surge-protection installation, and troubleshooting of intermittent power loss. If it involves your electrical system, we can diagnose and fix it.
How soon can you respond to an electrical emergency in Newport?
For urgent situations such as sparking panels, burning smells, or total power loss, we offer 24/7 emergency service. A licensed technician is usually on site within 60–90 minutes anywhere on Aquidneck Island, including downtown Newport, Middletown, and Portsmouth. Non-emergency repairs can generally be scheduled for the same or next business day.
Do you provide a warranty on your repair work?
Absolutely. All labor is backed by a two-year workmanship warranty, and we honor the manufacturer’s warranty on any parts we supply. If the same issue reoccurs within that window under normal use, we’ll return and fix it at no additional cost.
How do you price electrical repairs, and will I get an estimate first?
Our pricing is straightforward: after an on-site evaluation, we present a flat-rate quote that includes parts, labor, and tax, so there are no hidden fees. You approve the estimate before any work begins. For common repairs we can often provide a ballpark range over the phone, but final pricing is confirmed after inspection to ensure accuracy and safety.
What should I do before the electrician arrives?
1. Shut off any obviously damaged circuits at the breaker panel if it is safe to do so. 2. Clear access to the work area (move furniture, pets, or valuables). 3. Have any relevant information ready—such as when the problem started or any previous repairs. 4. Do not attempt DIY fixes on live circuits. These steps help us diagnose faster, reduce trip charges, and keep everyone safe.
