Breaker Keeps Tripping

A breaker that keeps tripping is protecting you from an overload, a short or a worn breaker. If your breaker box keeps tripping, we find the cause and complete the breaker tripping repair. We don’t just reset it and leave.

Breaker Won't Reset

When a tripped breaker or circuit breaker won’t reset, the breaker, the wiring or a fault on the circuit may be failing. Don’t keep forcing it. Call us.

Burning Smell From Your Breaker Panel Or Wiring

A burning wire smell, or a burning smell from your electrical panel or breaker panel, can point to overheating connections. A sparking breaker is just as serious. Treat it as urgent and call us right away.

Buzzing Electrical Panel

An electrical panel that’s buzzing or humming can mean a loose connection or a failing breaker. We inspect it and handle the electrical panel repair.

Broken Or Not Working Breakers

Broken breaker, circuit breaker not working, a breaker box not working, or lost power to part of your home? We test the breaker and the circuit, then handle the breaker repair or panel repair.

Flickering Or Dimming Lights

Lights that flicker or dim when something turns on can point to a loose connection, an overloaded circuit or a failing breaker. We trace the cause and fix it.

Power Surge Repair

After a power surge, we check your breakers, panel and affected circuits. We also install whole-home surge protection.

Circuit Breaker Replacement

Worn, damaged or failed breakers replaced with the right type for your panel. We also install new breakers, so you only need one call.

Old Fuse Box & Aging Panels

Blowing fuses, a faulty panel, or one that’s simply outdated? We’ll look at your fuse box or breaker box and tell you whether fuse box repair, breaker box repair or a full replacement makes sense. Learn more about panel upgrades here.

Why does my breaker keep tripping?

A breaker keeps tripping because the circuit is overloaded, there’s a short circuit or ground fault, a connection is loose, or the breaker itself is worn out. Try unplugging what’s on that circuit. If the breaker still trips, call a licensed electrician to find the cause. A repeat trip is your system protecting you, not something to keep resetting.

What should I do if my breaker won't reset?

Don’t force it. First push the breaker fully to “off”, then back to “on”. If it trips again right away or won’t stay on, the circuit has a fault or the breaker has failed. Leave it off and call a licensed electrician.

Is a burning smell from my breaker panel dangerous?

Yes, it can be. A burning smell from an electrical panel or breaker panel often means overheating or arcing. If you see smoke or flames, leave the home and call 911. If you only smell it, don’t touch the panel and call a licensed electrician right away.

Why is my electrical panel buzzing?

A buzzing or humming electrical panel usually points to a loose connection, an overloaded circuit or a failing breaker. A loud or new buzz is a reason to have it checked. Our electricians inspect the panel, find the cause and make the repair.

Why are my lights flickering or dimming?

Flickering or dimming lights can come from a loose connection, an overloaded circuit or a failing breaker. If it happens in one room, the problem is likely on that circuit. If it happens throughout the house, the panel or incoming service may be involved. Either way, an electrician can trace it.

Can I replace a breaker myself?

We don’t recommend it. Panels contain live parts that can cause serious shock or fire even with the main breaker off. Replacing a breaker, or repairing a breaker box, should be done by a licensed breaker electrician.
