"At 4:00 AM, February 4, 2017, my family was awakened by the fire of my entire circuit box. The light, smell, and crackling of burning circuits from the flames woke me up. I grabbed a fire extinguisher that I reluctantly paid for at Wal-Mart (Kidd brand) for around $50 from the kitchen pantry about 2 months ago, put it out before the drywall caught completely on fire, and had my son call 911 to report the incident. At 7:45 AM I went to Home Advisor and found these guys from Abbeville, called them, and they kept in touch with me by cell phone and showed up within an hour. They replaced the entire circuit box and even came back the following Monday to check and label each breaker to its location. They charged me $1300 total, which was $300 over my insurance company's $1000 deductible, so I won't be filing a claim. I'll fix the drywall myself. They went into the attic to check the wiring and later that same day before dark, we had power again. I highly recommend these guys for electrical service, as it is hard to find a reliable electrician in lower middle Georgia that won't rip you off. The guys are personable, polite, and will even put up with the barking of the two mutt dogs we adopted. They do a jam-up job, and I have FINALLY found electricians I can trust. Believe me, I know. Now to find a plumber who won't rip me off."

"The workman was definitely worthy of his hire. This gentleman not only solved my problem but advised me on how not to make it worse before he could arrive to fix it. Very fast service, very professional, was willing to teach me How to do it as he fixed the problem. Had very friendly conversation and exact knowledge on the job at hand. Felt like I was in a hands on electrical workshop at my own home. It inspired me to learn electrical handling. I’d call Jehi services again and again and also HIGHLY RECOMMEND their services to family and friends."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, tamper-resistant outlets are a safe and effective way to protect children from electrical hazards. They feature a spring-loaded shutter that blocks the outlet slots when not in use, preventing a child from inserting foreign objects. While they are the safest option available, it's important to note that few things can be considered truly 'childproof.' Children may still try to imitate adults by inserting a plug, so constant supervision around any electrical device is recommended. Tamper-resistant outlets are a much safer solution than childproofing covers, which can be removed by children and may pose a choking hazard.

An outlet can start a fire if it has blown a fuse, or is sparking, overheating, or smells burnt. Prevent electrical fires by unplugging the device connected to the outlet and hiring an electrician to determine and fix the outlet’s issue. If the outlet stays hot or isn't working, you should fix it.

You're in luck, because replacing a breaker panel is not a regular occurrence that most homeowners have to worry about. Electrical breaker panels last 25 to 40 years, assuming you properly maintain your system and conduct annual inspections. Factors like load demand and exposure to the elements slightly reduce a breaker panel’s lifespan.

You should hire a licensed electrician who is insured to perform any electrical work on your home, including lighting installation. States have different requirements for licensing and certifying electricians, so use Angi’s state licensing tool to review local guidelines.

Here are a few questions to ask electricians before hiring:

  • How many years of electrical experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you work with subcontractors?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • What is the timeline for completion?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three customer references?

Typically, when a 3-way switch only works when one switch is on, this is one of the most telltale indicators that the switch has gone bad (although this could also be the result of faulty or loose wiring). To diagnose the issue, toggle each switch until the light comes on. Once it’s on, toggle each switch separately again; the switch that doesn’t turn the light off is the bad switch.
