Betschart Electric Co - Olympia's Certified Electrical Services

Absolutely. Flickering lights are often a symptom of deeper issues like loose connections, faulty wiring, or an overloaded circuit—common problems in Olympia's older homes. Our comprehensive electrical inspection thoroughly examines your home's wiring, connections, and panel to pinpoint the exact cause. We then provide a clear, expert recommendation, whether it's a simple repair or a panel upgrade, to restore safe and stable power throughout your home.

A warm or hot electrical panel is a serious warning sign of overheating, which can lead to failure or a fire hazard. This often means your current panel is outdated or overloaded for your home's modern electrical demands. We recommend you contact us immediately for an assessment. Our electric installation or replacement service can provide a modern, higher-capacity electrical panel that safely manages your home's load, preventing overheating and ensuring reliable power for years to come.

While new fixtures can help, flickering is usually a wiring or circuit issue, not the fixture itself. Our light fixture installation service includes checking the existing wiring and connections at the fixture box. If we find loose or degraded wiring—a frequent culprit—we'll repair it to ensure a stable connection. For persistent flickering throughout the house, we'll investigate further during the installation to see if a circuit upgrade or panel service is needed to solve the root problem permanently.
