FAQs
What qualifies as an electrical emergency in Pikeville?
An electrical emergency is any situation that threatens safety, causes significant power loss, or risks property damage—such as sparking outlets, burning smells from wiring, partial or total power outages, tripped breakers that won’t reset, or water-damaged electrical panels. If you feel unsafe or notice signs of fire, call 911 first, then contact our 24/7 emergency electricians.
How fast can your electricians reach my Pikeville property?
We maintain on-call crews within Pikeville city limits and surrounding Pike County. In most cases, a licensed electrician is dispatched within 30 minutes of your call and arrives on-site in 60–90 minutes, depending on traffic and weather. For downtown Pikeville addresses we often arrive even sooner.
Are your emergency repair services available after hours, weekends, and holidays?
Yes. We operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including nights, weekends, and all major holidays. Our fully stocked service vans carry common replacement parts and specialized diagnostic tools so we can resolve most emergencies in a single visit, regardless of the time or day.
What should I do while waiting for the electrician to arrive?
First, turn off the main breaker if it is safe to access; this can prevent further damage. Keep people and pets away from the affected area, especially if there is smoke, sparks, or exposed wiring. Do not use water on electrical fires—use a Class C extinguisher instead. Avoid touching metal surfaces or wet areas. If you smell burning or see flames, evacuate immediately and call 911.
How much will an emergency electrical repair cost?
Because every situation differs, prices depend on the complexity of the problem, required parts, and time of service. We charge a flat diagnostic fee that covers the on-site assessment, then provide an up-front estimate before work begins. There are no hidden fees, and we accept major credit cards, checks, and financing options for larger repairs.
Do your repairs comply with Kentucky electrical codes and will you handle permits?
Absolutely. Our electricians are licensed by the Commonwealth of Kentucky and stay current with the 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) as adopted by the state. For repairs that require permits—such as panel replacements or service upgrades—we handle all paperwork, inspections, and coordination with the Pikeville building department to ensure your home or business is fully code-compliant.
