People often find themselves tackling minor electrical issues and projects around their home. But when it comes to more complicated issues, they often ask “When should I call an electrician?”
Common safety problems include:
- Circuit breakers/fuse are tripping often and need constant attention
- Lights dim in a room when big appliances like A/C or the refrigerator turn on
- Hear a sparking sound when flipping a switch
- Smell something burning
- Lights are flickering for no apparent reason
- The power strip is overloaded or better yet, two power strips running off one socket
- 3 prong plug will not fit in your 2 prong sockets
- Running extension cords on a regular basis
Other convenience opportunities include:
- Add recessed lights to an existing room
- Protect expensive computer or TV and stereo equipment with their own circuit
- Wish those speakers wires or network cables could be hidden behind the walls
- Want to replace your old 2 prong plugs with modern 3 prong plugs
- Want to add a dimmer switch or a new ceiling fan
