Great contractor, very nice and respectful. I own a salon in Lexington and needed to hire an electrician for an addition. The owner came out to give me an estimate and was very informative. We used this contractor and they were fast and professional. This will be our electrician for life.

Current offer

$100 off whole-home surge protection

With the purchase of any additional service. Mention it when you call.

Lightning is part of life in the Midlands. Fried appliances don’t have to be.

A whole-home surge protector installed at your panel stops the big spikes from lightning and utility switching before they reach the circuit boards in your HVAC, refrigerator, washer, and TVs. Add one to any service call and save.

Straight answers

Common electrical questions, answered by master electricians.

Why does my breaker keep tripping?

A breaker trips for one of three reasons: the circuit is overloaded, there is a short circuit, or there is a ground fault. It is a safety device doing its job, not a nuisance.

More on breakers & panels
Why is my outlet or switch warm to the touch?

A warm outlet or switch plate usually means a loose connection, an overloaded device, or a failing dimmer. Treat it as a warning sign.

Why do my lights flicker?

If one fixture flickers, it is usually the bulb, a loose bulb, or an incompatible dimmer. If lights flicker across the house, it can point to a loose connection in the panel or at the service, and that should be checked promptly.

What should I do if my power goes out?

Check whether your neighbors have power. If they do, the problem is in your home; if they do not, it is the utility.

More on storms, surges & generators
I smell burning plastic but cannot find the source. What should I do?

Treat it as an emergency. If you can identify the room or circuit, turn off that breaker. If you cannot, turn off the main breaker and call an electrician. If you see smoke or flames, get out and call 911.
