Wallace Electric | Electrician & Generator Services in Astoria, OR

It very well could be. Intermittent power is a common symptom of both loose connections within your panel or outlets and failing underground cables, which are susceptible to moisture and wear in our coastal climate. Our electricians start with a thorough inspection to trace the issue. We'll check for loose terminals and, if needed, can perform diagnostic testing on your underground service line to pinpoint the problem accurately and recommend the right repair.

We can handle both! Flickering outdoor fixtures in Astoria are often caused by loose wire connections corroded by sea air or damaged underground wiring feeding the fixture. Our repair service involves securing connections, replacing damaged components, and ensuring a waterproof seal. If the fixture itself is beyond repair or outdated, we offer expert installation of new, durable lighting designed to withstand the local elements, improving both safety and curb appeal.

That's a smart precaution. For Astoria homes, a proper generator installation is key. We ensure your generator connects safely to your electrical panel via a transfer switch, preventing backfeed that could endanger utility workers—a critical step. We also assess your home's wiring for any underlying issues, like loose connections, that could be exacerbated when switching to generator power. Our installation includes all permits and testing, so you have reliable backup power when you need it most.
