FAQs
What kinds of electrical problems can you repair for Rockwood homeowners and businesses?
We handle everything from simple outlet and light-switch failures to complex whole-house rewiring, breaker panel upgrades, lighting design, surge protection, EV charger installation, and code-violation corrections. Whether it is a flickering light, frequent breaker trips, or a total power outage, our licensed technicians are equipped to diagnose and repair the issue safely and efficiently.
How fast can you respond to an electrical emergency in Rockwood?
Because a loss of power, burning smell, or sparking outlet can pose serious safety risks, we offer 24/7 emergency service to all Rockwood addresses. In most cases a technician is dispatched within 60–90 minutes. We arrive in fully stocked service vehicles so most repairs can be completed on the first visit, minimizing downtime and hazards.
Are your electricians licensed, insured, and familiar with Rockwood codes?
Yes. Every technician on our team holds a state-issued Journeyman or Master Electrician license and carries full liability and workers’ compensation insurance. We stay current on all City of Rockwood and state electrical codes so your repair or upgrade meets local inspection requirements and passes the first time.
What will an electrical repair cost and do you offer upfront pricing?
After a thorough on-site evaluation, we provide a written, flat-rate quote before any work begins. Diagnostic fees typically start at $79, which is waived if you proceed with the repair. Common fixes such as replacing a faulty breaker may range from $150–$250, while larger projects like service-panel replacements are quoted based on amperage and scope. There are no surprise charges—what we quote is what you pay.
Can you upgrade the wiring or breaker panel in my older Rockwood home?
Absolutely. Many Rockwood houses built before the 1980s still have aluminum branch circuits, two-wire (non-grounded) outlets, or undersized fuse boxes. We specialize in bringing these systems up to modern 200-amp service, adding dedicated circuits for appliances, and installing AFCI/GFCI protection. All work is permitted and inspected to ensure long-term safety and insurance compliance.
What should I do if my circuit breaker keeps tripping?
First, unplug or turn off devices on the affected circuit and attempt to reset the breaker. If it trips again immediately, leave it off to avoid overheating wires. Frequent trips usually indicate an overloaded circuit, short, or ground fault. Call us for a professional diagnosis—we’ll use thermal imaging and circuit tracing to find the root cause and provide a permanent, code-compliant solution.
