Electrical Repair for East Lansing homes and businesses

Mid-Michigan gets its share of ice storms and summer thunderstorms, and both lead to outages and surges. In East Lansing and across Ingham County, we see the results in damaged electronics and tired breakers. That experience informs how we approach electrical repair here.

Finding the real cause of an electrical problem

A tripping breaker is a symptom. The cause may be an overloaded circuit, a failing appliance, a loose connection heating up inside a box or a cable damaged years ago by a nail. Our electricians in East Lansing test the circuit under load, open the suspect boxes and follow the wiring until the fault is found. You get an explanation, a price for the repair and, where it makes sense, an option that prevents the same problem from coming back.
