What’s Considered an Electrical Emergency?

Not every electrical issue needs immediate service, but some shouldn’t wait.

Reach out if you're dealing with:

  • Power outages isolated to your property
  • Breakers that won’t stay on or blown fuses
  • Outlets or switches that are warm, sparking, or smoking

  • Electrical shocks when plugging in devices
