Silvies River Electric - Burns's Emergency Electricians

Absolutely. Many homes in our area have older electrical systems that are more susceptible to power surges. Our comprehensive electrical inspection checks your home's grounding, wiring integrity, and panel condition. We can identify if your system lacks proper surge protection and recommend solutions, such as installing whole-house surge protectors or upgrading your electric panel, to safeguard your valuable appliances from sudden voltage spikes.

Common signs include frequently tripped breakers, a burning smell near light fixtures, or discolored outlets. Attic wiring in Burns homes can be compromised by rodents, aging insulation, or extreme temperature swings. Our electric repair service involves safely tracing the circuit, locating the damaged section—often where wires may be pinched or frayed—and replacing it with new, code-compliant wiring. We also ensure proper insulation and protection to prevent a recurrence.

Older panels, like fuse boxes or low-amperage models, can't handle modern electrical loads safely, increasing the risk of short circuits and surges. An upgrade involves our licensed electricians safely removing the old panel and installing a new, higher-capacity unit with modern circuit breakers. This not only enhances safety by reducing fire risk but also provides stable power for your home and allows for the addition of new circuits, such as for an electric vehicle charging station.
