Quick Repairs For A Homeowner To Check
To help homeowners save time and money, check the following common electrical fixes before calling for help.
- Reset a Tripped Breaker – If one room loses power, turn the breaker fully off and back on; if it trips again, call an electrician.
- Confirm a Utility Outage – Check outside lights, nearby homes, or your utility’s outage map to see if the issue is coming from the power company.
- Check GFCI Outlets – Press the reset button on GFCI outlets in bathrooms, kitchens, garages, or outdoors, as one tripped outlet can shut off others.
- Unplug Recently Used Appliances – Unplug high-power appliances, reset the breaker, then plug them back in one at a time to avoid overloads.
- Replace the Light Bulb – A loose or burned-out bulb is the most common reason a single light stops working, so try a new bulb first.
