Electrical Repair in Colorado Springs, CO

How Do I Identify the Need For Residential Electrical Repairs 

There are a few signs that will let you know that you require electrical repairs. These signs should not be ignored because they could cause damage to your home or even harm your family. Here is a rundown of things to look for: 

• Flickering lights indicate that there is not enough power being transferred to the light. It may also be a loose connection between the light fixture and the switch. 
• Frequently tripped breakers indicate that there is an overload of power being drawn. This could be that too many devices or appliances are plugged into a single outlet. 
• Power surges also indicate that there is a fault in your electrical system. A power surge can damage appliances or equipment. 
• A very distinct burning smell may occur in your home and indicate that there are wires that are getting hot as a result of too much power being drawn. This can lead to an electrical fire in your home. 

Make sure to give us a call if you experience any of the above-mentioned signs. It’s better to be cautious and keep your home safe. 

Troubleshooting 

When our team is called out to take care of residential electrical repairs, we must first assess the cause of the electrical fault before we can conduct repairs. Troubleshooting is a great way to pinpoint the root of the problem quickly and effectively. Once we have found the cause of the fault, we can take care of the electrical repairs. 

Outlet Repair 

The outlets in your home allow electricity to flow from your electrical panel to your appliances, devices, and other equipment. For it to deliver electricity effectively, it needs to be in working order. If your electrical outlets are not in great shape, they may cause damage to your household items and potentially be a safety risk. If your electrical outlets are showing blue sparks, getting hot when in use, or has a burning smell coming from them, be sure to call us for your outlet repairs. 

Having GFCI outlets can also increase the safety of your electrical outlets. GFCIs are used when an outlet is close to a water source, such as a laundry room, kitchen, or bathroom. 

Electrical Panel Repair 

Your main electrical panel distributes electricity to the appropriate outlets and light fixtures in your home. An electrical panel knows how much power to distribute to each circuit so that it does not cause them to overheat. If you need electrical panel repairs, your home is in danger. Because an electrical panel is not used as much as other components in your home, it can be easy to neglect it when something is wrong. If you are experiencing any electrical panel failures in your home, contact us immediately so that we can take care of your electrical panel repairs. 

Generator Repair 

A generator is great for those power outages that happen when we least expect them. However, if your generator is not functioning the way it should, it won’t be able to offer you the convenience you need. Because a generator is not used consistently, we may forget that it also needs a bit of TLC. If your generator is not being maintained or repaired regularly, you may be left one when you need it most. 

Lighting Fixture Repair 

We need sufficient lighting in our homes for everyday activities. It also serves security purposes outside of our homes. Make sure the lighting in your home is operating properly. If your lights constantly flicker or you change light bulbs too often, you may require light fixture repairs.
