Book Electrical RepairHow Do You Know if You Need Emergency Electrical Repairs?
Electrical emergencies are typically assessed based on immediate safety risks, such as smoke, burning smells, sparking outlets, or loss of power in key areas. Exposed wires, frequently tripped breakers, and buzzing panels are all examples of problems that shouldn’t wait.
If you’re unsure whether the issue qualifies as an emergency, it’s worth making a quick call. We can evaluate the situation and determine the best course of action before the problem escalates. If you need emergency electrical repairs, we’ll schedule you right away, but if it makes more sense to book a standard service call, we’ll explain why and set that up instead.
Ric Ginn Electric’s Electrical Repair Services
Whether you are remodeling an older home, want to correct flickering or dimming lights, replace circuit breakers that constantly trip, or install new outlets and switches, you need to trust an electrician with the expertise to handle the job properly. Homeowners in Kansas City can call Ric Ginn Electric for all their electrical repairs, including:
General electrical maintenance
Electrical maintenance is the best way to address minor issues and avoid major repairs. Our team handles a range of small but essential fixes to keep your system running safely. We can replace electrical cords, rewire outlets, and install switches. Each service is done with the intention of extending the life of your system and preventing future issues.
Electrical safety inspection
Our specialists will inspect the entire electrical system of your home or office to ensure that it is up to electrical code compliance and will make any repairs needed to bring it to code. Most systems need an electrical inspection at least once every few years, but we can assess your property’s specific needs and recommend a schedule that makes sense for you.
Electrical wiring
Rewiring a house is an ideal project for people considering selling a home. At Ric Ginn Electric, our licensed and insured professionals stay current in codes and standards. We start with a full assessment of the existing electrical wiring, then create a step-by-step plan to upgrade your system safely, efficiently, and with minimal disruption.
Electrical panel upgrades
We can upgrade your electrical panel in your home or office to enable you to change from fuses to a circuit breaker panel or to just increase the electrical load. If you plan on adding new appliances, renovating, or expanding your space, upgrading your panel ensures your system can handle the increased demand safely and efficiently.
Electrical Troubleshooting
Other electrical repair services we provide the people of Kansas City include troubleshooting lighting problems, GFI electrical outlet repairs, aluminum wiring replacement and home generator repairs. Don’t try to handle these repairs on your own. Electrical work can be dangerous without the right tools and training. Let our licensed professionals take care of it safely and correctly.
Signs of Electrical Problems
Flickering or dead lights
If the problem isn’t with the bulb or circuit breaker, then there is faulty wiring. We can inspect the affected fixtures, trace the wiring, and make the necessary repairs to restore consistent and safe lighting throughout your space.
A burning smell
This is a sign that wires are overloaded or that the wring has been damaged. It’s a situation that requires immediate attention, as it can quickly lead to electrical fires. Shut off power to the area and contact us right away.
Constantly tripping breakers
Either the breaker has become too sensitive or it is telling you that there is too much energy needed for what you wish to do. The fix will depend on whether the cause is a worn-out breaker, an overloaded circuit, or an outdated panel. We’ll diagnose the issue and recommend the safest solution.
Burn marks around sockets
This can be a sign for a number of issues. Stop using the socket and call a professional to check the issue.
There are a number of other possible issues that can indicate a need for professional repairs. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to call and ask. Burn marks around sockets and similar warning signs shouldn’t be ignored, even if everything still seems to work. Electrical issues can worsen without warning, so it’s always better to catch the problem early with a quick inspection.
