Warning signs of electrical trouble

If you notice any of these in your home, have a licensed electrician inspect your system. Most are easy to fix, and catching them early prevents fires and shocks.

  • Flickering or dimming lights
  • Breakers that trip repeatedly
  • Warm outlets or switch plates
  • A burning smell near outlets or the panel
  • Buzzing or crackling sounds
  • Sparks when plugging things in
  • Mild shocks from appliances or metal parts
  • An old or outdated breaker panel

Federal Pacific (FPE) or Zinsco panel?

Federal Pacific Stab-Lok and Zinsco/Sylvania panels are known fire hazards. If your home has one, we can inspect it and replace it with a modern panel.

Shown here: a new Leviton breaker panel we installed, with a clearly labeled circuit directory and room to grow.
