FAQs
What types of electrical repairs do your certified technicians handle in Rockford?
Our Rockford-based, state-licensed electricians repair or replace circuit breakers, panels, outlets, switches, lighting fixtures, ceiling fans, GFCI/AFCI devices, whole-house surge protectors, smoke/CO detectors, electric vehicle chargers, and damaged wiring. We also troubleshoot flickering lights, tripped breakers, overloaded circuits, and partial power loss in both residential and light-commercial settings.
Are your electricians fully licensed, insured, and certified for work in Illinois and the City of Rockford?
Yes. Every field technician holds an Illinois Electrical License, is bonded, and carries at least $1 million in liability insurance. We also maintain all required Rockford permits and registrations. Our team completes continuing-education courses on the National Electrical Code (NEC) every three years, so you can trust that repairs meet the latest safety standards.
How fast can you get an electrician to my Rockford home or business in an emergency?
For urgent issues such as sparking outlets, burning smells, or total power loss, we offer 24/7 emergency dispatch. A technician is typically on-site anywhere in the greater Rockford area within 60–90 minutes, weather and traffic permitting. For non-emergency repairs, we can usually schedule same-day or next-day service windows.
What safety steps should I take while waiting for your technician if I notice a burning smell or see sparks?
First, turn off the affected circuit at your breaker panel if it is safe to do so. Unplug any devices connected to the problematic outlet or fixture. Do not use water on electrical fires—instead, keep a Class C fire extinguisher nearby. Evacuate the area if you see smoke or flames and call 911. Once conditions are safe, contact us and avoid turning the circuit back on until we inspect it.
Do you provide up-front pricing and written estimates?
Absolutely. After diagnosing the problem, our electrician explains the repair options and gives you a written, flat-rate quote before any work begins. The price won’t change unless the scope of work changes and you approve it. We also honor manufacturer warranties on any materials we supply and include a one-year labor warranty for your peace of mind.
Can you bring my older Rockford property up to current electrical code?
Yes. We specialize in code corrections for homes built before recent NEC updates. Services include panel upgrades to 200 amps, grounding and bonding, GFCI/AFCI protection, tamper-resistant receptacles, aluminum-to-copper pigtailing, and rewiring knob-and-tube or cloth wiring. We coordinate permits and City of Rockford inspections to ensure full compliance and improved safety.
