"Our experience with Timpson Electrical was outstanding. I was impressed with the customer service, professionalism, quality of work performed, reasonable pricing and that he arrived at the stated time. So much that I requested for an estimate for another project while he was performing the work that we originally contracted them to perform. We will only use Timpson Electrical for any future electrical needs. HIGHLY recommend."

"It was unbelievable! The lights on my dishwasher were flashing, but the dishwasher wouldn’t close and it wouldn’t go on. I explained this to Mr. Evans and he told me to pull out the bottom rack And Check to make sure it was correct. I pulled it out and rearranged the dishes. It was unusually full. After doing this, It worked fine! So I don’t need service, At least for now. But when I do, I will definitely call express appliance! By the way, he was going to come out today if I needed his help! So nice to find such an honest and helpful Appliance repair man!!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Pendant lights are very versatile, and you can almost always find one with your preferred style that accepts your preferred bulb. Today, many fixtures use LED bulbs, though it’s still completely possible to find one that uses halogen, fluorescent, or even old-school incandescent bulbs. The manual that comes with your light should tell what types of bulbs you can use with it.

To determine if an electrical outlet is blown, look for visible signs of damage such as a burning or smoky smell, burn marks, or a melted or discolored plastic cover. If you notice a burning smell, contact an electrician immediately. Other signs include a plug that keeps falling out or the outlet not working when you test it with different devices. For further troubleshooting, you can use a voltage tester or multimeter to check for power; a reading of zero indicates a problem. Also, check your circuit breaker or fuse box to see if the circuit was tripped and reset it if necessary. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the outlet may need to be replaced.

If your breaker box won’t reset, stay on, trips when overloaded, or gets seriously damaged, you will need to replace the breakers or possibly the entire panel. A damaged breaker can lead to a fire, so it’s best to err on the safe side and look into replacement. Hire a professional electrician to replace a breaker box to ensure your personal and property safety.

If you've ever tried to run your dishwasher while drying your hair, you’ll understand why dedicated circuits are essential for preventing blown fuses. Appliances that require more electricity than the circuit can handle could blow fuses, trip breakers, overheat, and risk an electrical fire. 

Having a dedicated circuit ensures that your appliance gets the current it needs without overloading the other circuits in your home.

According to the National Electrical Code (NEC), GFCI outlets should be installed in wet or damp locations where they might be splashed with water or other liquids. This is to protect against ground faults, which are more common around water. Specific areas that require GFCI outlets include kitchens (especially near counters), bathrooms, laundry rooms, basements, garages, and all outdoor receptacles. Depending on local electrical codes, you may need at least one GFCI outlet in these rooms, or every outlet in the area may need to be GFCI protected.
