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 Howell 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.
