Common Questions
Why do my GFCI outlets in Lexington keep tripping, and how can you fix it?
Frequent GFCI trips in our area are often caused by moisture in outdoor or garage outlets, or by underlying faults in the circuit, like worn insulation from age or pests. Our electricians will perform a thorough electrical inspection to locate the exact cause—whether it's a faulty outlet, a wiring issue, or damage from rodents—and provide a precise repair or replacement to ensure your home's safety and code compliance.
Can you repair wiring that has been damaged by rodents in my home?
Absolutely. Rodent-damaged wiring is a common and dangerous issue in Lexington. We specialize in electric repair, which includes safely accessing the affected areas, removing the compromised wiring, and installing new, code-compliant wiring. This repair is crucial to prevent short circuits, power outages, and fire hazards, restoring safe and reliable power to your home.
I need new outdoor lighting but am concerned about reliability. What do you offer?
We understand Lexington's weather can be tough on fixtures. Our light fixture installation service focuses on durability and proper setup. We'll recommend and install fixtures rated for outdoor use, ensure all connections are secure and weatherproof, and connect them to appropriate, protected circuits (often GFCI) to prevent failures. This expert installation helps prevent future issues and provides long-lasting, safe illumination for your property.
