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 Michigan 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.

What does electrical repair cost in Michigan?

Most electrical repairs in Michigan are priced after a short diagnostic visit, because the cost depends on where the fault is and what it takes to reach it. Replacing a worn outlet is quick. Tracing an intermittent short through finished walls takes longer. We tell you the price before the repair begins.

Electrical Repair: common questions

Is a tripping breaker dangerous?

The breaker is doing its job by tripping, but repeated trips mean something is wrong. Stop resetting it and call an electrician, especially if you notice heat, a burning smell or buzzing.

Why did half my house lose power?

Common causes are a tripped main or GFCI, a failed breaker, or a lost neutral or service leg. The last two are serious. Call (888) 633-7804 and we will get someone out to Michigan.

Can you repair aluminum or knob and tube wiring?

We can make safe repairs to both and will advise you when replacement is the better long-term choice.
