Common Questions
My home's circuit breaker keeps tripping. Can Shirley Electric help diagnose and fix this?
Absolutely. Tripping breakers are often a sign of an overloaded circuit, faulty wiring, or a problem with the breaker itself. As a full-service electrical contractor, we specialize in circuit breaker repair and panel upgrades. Our master electricians will thoroughly inspect your system to identify the root cause—whether it's an aging panel, damaged wiring, or increased demand from modern appliances—and provide a lasting repair to ensure your home's safety and electrical reliability.
I'm considering an EV charger installation at my Lockhart home. What should I know about my electrical panel?
This is a common consideration for local homeowners. EV chargers require a dedicated, high-amperage circuit, which can often overload an older electrical panel. Our team is experienced in assessing your home's current capacity. We can perform a detailed electric inspection and, if needed, handle a full electric panel installation or upgrade to safely support your new charger. This proactive approach prevents circuit overloads and ensures your vehicle charges efficiently without risking damage to your home's electrical system.
We have frequent power issues in our backyard shed. Could this be related to damaged underground wiring, which is common here?
It's very possible. Lockhart's soil conditions can sometimes lead to corrosion or damage in underground cables running to outbuildings, pools, or exterior lights. Shirley Electric has extensive experience with wire repair and installation for these specific local challenges. We can safely diagnose if the issue is with the underground feed, often using specialized equipment to locate the fault without unnecessary digging, and then perform a durable repair or replacement to restore reliable power.
