A warm or discolored outlet is a serious warning sign, often pointing to loose connections or an overloaded circuit—common issues in our area. For your safety, stop using that outlet immediately and contact a professional.

I'll securely repair or replace the faulty components to eliminate the fire hazard and ensure your home's electrical system is safe.

Absolutely. Installing a home EV charging station is a service I provide regularly. The process involves assessing your home's electrical capacity, typically at the main panel, to ensure it can handle the new dedicated circuit safely. I handle the entire installation—from the panel upgrade if needed, to running the proper wire, to mounting and connecting the charging unit. This upgrade not only adds convenience but can also increase your home's value, and I ensure it meets all local Spokane electrical codes.

A frequently tripping breaker is your electrical system's way of preventing overloads and potential wire damage. Common causes in older Spokane homes include outdated panels, too many devices on one circuit, or a faulty appliance. I start with a thorough inspection to pinpoint the issue, which could be at the breaker itself, in the wiring, or at a specific outlet. The solution may involve repairing a short, redistributing the electrical load, or upgrading the circuit breaker or panel for reliable, long-term performance.
