"For the past 15 years Mike from Shamrock Electric has done extensive electrical work for two homes. He is personable, reliable, knowledgeable and fastidious. Recently he returned for a smaller job and completing a delicate onyx sconce installation with the same skill and expertise. I’m always confident that the job has been done right when Mike does my electrical work. I highly recommend him. He is a pro!"

"DZ Electric has come to our rescue on more than one occasion over the past two years; has always been quick to respond, super friendly, and more-than reasonably priced. They resolved an issue I was having with a hot tub, replaced an entire electrical panel, installed motion detector lights, and even restored our 30+ year-old landscaping lights because I was too stubborn to find replacementsâ ¦BTW they are beautiful once again! Their most recent visit is a true testament to how GREAT they areâ ¦.it was not to my home. My husband and I had been looking forward to a weekâ s vacation on our boat when its air conditioning failed. After days of having multiple marine technicians on board not able to locate the problem, I decided to call Darren at DZ Electric. He responded immediately and met with us that same afternoon. Our boat was unfamiliar territory to Darren, but he was willing to do whatever it took to help us, and was confident he would find the problem. Darren returned, on time as always, with Rob and Orlandoâ ¦and they immediately got to work. They were laser focused on one thing, getting us back in vacation mode. Not only did they find the problem, they FIXED the problemâ ¦. all within a few hours!! They went above and beyond for us; working in very tight quarters-in extreme heat and humidity, and never complained about it. Even left our boat cleaner than they found it. They salvaged our vacationâ ¦my heroes!! We are very grateful, and would never consider using anyone else for an electrical issue. Thanks guys, you truly are the BEST!!!"

"Matt did two jobs for me, an outdoor lighting job and an inside job where I needed an extra switch installed on a bathroom fixture. Both times he arrived when he said he would and went right to work. Both jobs took less time than I thought they would and best of all Matt's prices are very reasonable. I am so glad I have found Matt Greco Electrical. He is reliable and reasonable and you can rest assured Matt will take care of any electrical issue you have."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

There are many signs it is time to replace an electrical panel, starting with flickering lights. Other tell-tale signals include overheating appliances, light fixtures that cause an electric shock, hissing or crackling from the breaker box, burned or blackened spots near the breaker box, and breakers that trip whenever activating power-hungry appliances like microwaves.

Switching the hot and neutral wires in an outlet or receptacle, a condition known as reverse polarity, is dangerous. While the outlet will still function and provide power, it creates a significant electrical shock hazard because anything plugged into it will remain electrified even when switched off. If you touch a conductive part of the appliance, such as the metal components of a toaster, you could receive an electric shock.

The cost of fixing faulty wiring depends on the type of repair required. Replacing an electrical service line, for example, can cost up to $500. Rewiring an entire house will cost at least several thousand dollars. Replacing old wiring like knob and tube wiring will be even more expensive, but fortunately that kind of outdated wiring is fairly rare. Always get an estimate from a reliable electrician to learn the cost details. 

If the outlet is a GFCI model, this is normal since these outlets have their own breakers that shut off when they encounter a problem—just hitting the reset button should solve the issue. Otherwise, the outlet could have bad wiring, or your circuit breaker could be having issues. If the issue started out of nowhere and is not on a GFCI outelt, it’s best to contact an electrician to diagnose the issue.

There are a few reasons your lights may be on, but the rest of your electrical outlets and appliances are not working. The first is that while one circuit blew out, the lights may be on another circuit than your other electrical fixtures. Alternatively, your powerless appliances may be plugged into a GFCI outlet that was tripped and needs to be reset. If these issues aren’t responsible for the problem, you may have dead outlets or a wiring issue. Either way, you should contact an electrician to identify and fix the issue.
