Frequently Asked Questions

My arc fault breaker keeps tripping in my Boise home. Can you help?

Absolutely. Frequent tripping is a common issue here and often signals a wiring fault, overloaded circuit, or a problem with a specific appliance. Our electricians start with a detailed electrical inspection to pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's in an outlet, switch, or the wiring itself. We then perform the necessary repair or installation to resolve the nuisance tripping and, most importantly, eliminate the potential fire hazard, restoring safe, reliable power to your home.

Can a whole-house surge protector prevent damage from Idaho power surges?

Yes, installing a whole-house surge protector is one of the best defenses against the voltage spikes that can damage expensive electronics and appliances in Boise. While power strips offer limited protection, a professional-grade device installed at your main electrical panel shields your entire home's wiring. As part of our electric installation services, we can evaluate your home's needs and install a robust surge protector to guard your TVs, computers, and HVAC systems from unpredictable Idaho power surges.

I have a damaged light fixture after a power surge. Do you repair or replace them?

We do both. After a surge, a fixture may flicker, stop working, or become unsafe. Our team will first inspect the fixture and its wiring to diagnose the problem. Often, internal components are fried and a repair is the most cost-effective solution. If the fixture is extensively damaged or outdated, we can safely remove it and handle the complete light fixture installation of a new, energy-efficient model that better suits your home and provides reliable, safe lighting.
