Watts Electrical | Qualified Electrical Services in Houston, TX

Yes. Severe storms often cause power surges that trip older, overloaded breakers. Our circuit breaker installation and electric panel upgrade services provide modern, higher-capacity protection. A new panel with properly sized breakers can handle sudden electrical loads more effectively, reducing the chance of a full-house outage and protecting your appliances from surge damage common during Houston thunderstorms.

Houston's heat and humidity are tough on outdoor electrical components. Standard outlets can overheat, corrode, or short-circuit. We repair damaged outdoor outlets and wire installations with weather-resistant (WR) and Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) models specifically designed for our climate. For a lasting solution, we can install new, properly rated outdoor outlets and fixtures that are sealed against moisture to prevent heat-related damage and ensure safety.

First, check your main electrical panel for tripped breakers. If resetting them doesn't restore power, or if you notice flickering lights, buzzing sounds, or a burning smell, avoid the risk and call us immediately. Our electric inspection service is crucial post-storm to identify hidden damage like compromised wiring or a faulty panel that could lead to a fire hazard. We'll diagnose the problem, whether it's a repair for a specific circuit or a full panel assessment, to get your Houston home safely back online.
