Common Questions
My old house in Queens has flickering lights. Could this be from aging wiring, and what do you do about it?
Yes, flickering lights in older Queens homes are often a symptom of aging or deteriorated wiring, which is a common local issue. For your safety, we start with a thorough electrical safety inspection to identify the specific problem areas. Our service includes safely replacing outdated wiring, upgrading your fuse box or electrical panel to handle modern loads, and ensuring all work meets current NYC electrical codes. Addressing these underlying issues not only fixes the flickering but significantly improves the safety of your home.
What's involved in your outdoor lighting installation service?
Our outdoor lighting installation is designed for durability and convenience in our local climate. We assess your property's electrical access and your lighting goals, then install fixtures with proper weatherproofing and grounding. A service we often recommend for Queens homeowners is adding an outdoor lighting timer, which provides security and energy savings by automating your lights. We handle everything from mounting and wiring to final testing, ensuring a safe and reliable system that enhances your home's exterior.
Do you offer emergency electrical service, and what constitutes an emergency?
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency electric service for Queens residents. Situations that require immediate attention include a complete power loss in your home, sparking from an outlet or panel, a smoking or burning smell from electrical components, or a circuit breaker that won't stay reset. These can indicate serious hazards like damaged underground cables or faulty breakers. When you call, we dispatch a certified electrician to diagnose the problem safely and implement a repair, such as circuit breaker replacement or urgent wiring repair, to restore your power and safety.
