Electrical
service calls.

Something stopped working and you need a licensed electrician. Scheduled service starts at $150 flat and includes the trip plus the first hour of work. Same-day priority dispatch available at $350 when you need it today.

What's a service call?

A service call is the fastest way to get a licensed electrician on-site to diagnose and fix something that's broken. Most appointments book a day or two out. Need it today? Same-day priority dispatch is also available. We send a fully equipped electrician with the parts and tools to handle 90% of common residential issues on the first visit.

Common issues we fix on the spot

  • Dead outlets and switches
  • Tripping breakers that won't reset
  • GFCI replacements (kitchen, bathroom, outdoor)
  • Faulty light fixtures and ceiling fans
  • Burning smells from outlets or panels
  • Buzzing or sparking outlets
  • Half-dead circuits where one room loses power
  • Smoke detector hardwiring issues
  • Outdoor lighting and motion sensor problems
  • Garage and basement circuit failures

Scheduled Service ($150) vs Same-Day ($350)

Scheduled Service at $150 is what most homeowners book. You pick a day in the next week, we confirm a window by text, and a licensed electrician shows up to diagnose and fix the problem. Same first-hour-of-work coverage, same parts handling, same warranty on the labor — just on your schedule instead of right now.

Same-Day Service at $350 is for when you can't wait. Burning smell, sparking outlet, no power to the panel, breaker that won't stop tripping. We move other appointments to get a tech to you the same day, usually within 2–4 hours.

What's included in both rates

Both rates cover the trip out to your home, the diagnostic work to figure out what's wrong, and a full hour of a licensed electrician's labor. That's not a "show-up fee" — it's an hour of real work. Most common issues are diagnosed and repaired within that hour. Minor parts like wire nuts, breakers, GFCIs, and switches are typically included.

What if it takes longer than an hour?

We diagnose first, then quote the full job in writing before doing any extra work. You see the price and approve it before we keep going. No surprises, no "oh that'll be another $400" at the end. If the project ends up over $1,500, your service fee is credited toward the total.

What we won't do on a service call

If you need a full panel upgrade, a new circuit run, an EV charger installed, or a lighting retrofit — those are planned projects, not service calls. Book an estimate visit ($100) instead. We'll come scope the work and send you a written bid.
