Auburn, WA 98002
Q&A
My outlets in Auburn feel warm to the touch. Is this a serious issue?
Yes, overheated outlets are a common and serious safety concern in older Auburn homes, often indicating overloaded circuits, loose wiring, or a failing outlet. This can lead to electrical fires. Merit Electric's licensed technicians can perform a thorough inspection to diagnose the root cause, which may involve circuit breaker repair, wire repair, or a full panel upgrade to handle modern electrical loads safely. Addressing this promptly protects your home and family.
Does Merit Electric handle full electrical packages for home remodels?
Absolutely. Since 1982, we've specialized in residential remodels and collaborate with engineering firms when needed. For a remodel, we manage the entire electrical package: from the initial design and planning to all installation work, including new wire installation, panel upgrades, light fixture installation, and final inspections. This integrated approach ensures your remodel's electrical system is safe, up to code, and meets your specific needs, all while keeping the project on time and on budget.
What's involved in an electric panel installation or repair?
Your electrical panel is the heart of your home's system. An installation or upgrade is often needed for remodels, adding major appliances, or if you have an older panel that can't handle modern demand. Our process includes a safety assessment, obtaining any necessary permits, carefully removing the old panel, installing the new one to current code, and thoroughly testing all circuits. For repairs, we diagnose issues like frequent tripping or corrosion and fix them to restore reliable, safe power to your home.
