Electrical Repairs & Troubleshooting
Something's not working right? Start here.
From faulty outlets and frequently tripping breakers to electrical wiring issues and unexpected power problems, our electricians diagnose and repair residential electrical issues throughout Greater Cincinnati. We find the real cause, explain what they found in plain English and give you options before any work begins. Not sure it’s a repair? Check our Electrical Panel Repair page or schedule a visit and we’ll figure it out together.
Electrical Repair
Flickering lights, dead outlets or tripped breakers. We find the cause and explain the fix.
Electrical Panel Repair
Not every panel problem means a new panel. We diagnose it first.
Outlet & Switch Repair
Warm, sparking or dead outlets and switches, repaired safely.
Electrical Panel Upgrades & Surge Protection
The heart of your home's electrical system.
Your electrical panel feeds every circuit in the house, so an outdated, overloaded or recalled panel affects everything else. Whether you need an electrical panel replacement, more electrical capacity for an addition or EV charger, or just more peace of mind, we’ll start with safety. We’ll tell you honestly whether a repair, an upgrade or added protection makes the most sense for your home. Pair a panel upgrade with whole-home surge protection to protect the electronics and appliances you count on.
Panel Installation & Upgrades
Electrical panel replacement for outdated or Federal Pacific panels, plus more capacity for today's home.
Surge Protection
Whole-home surge protection for the electronics and appliances you count on.
Smoke & CO Detectors
Hardwired, interconnected smoke and carbon monoxide detectors installed to protect your family.
Whole-Home Generators & EV Charger Installation
Backup power and home charging, built around your home.
When the power goes out, a whole-home standby generator gives you backup power for your heat, fridge and sump pump, and we can keep it maintained so it’s ready. Driving electric? We install home EV charging stations on a dedicated circuit for everyday charging convenience. Either way, we make sure your panel can handle the extra load first. And we offer financing options for your convenience.
Home Generator Installation
Standby generator installation for reliable backup power when the grid goes down.
Home Generator Repair
Generator repair and maintenance so it starts when you need it.
EV Charger Installation
Home EV charging station installation with a dedicated circuit, done right.
Indoor Lighting & Electrical Outlets
Light and power where you actually need it.
From indoor lighting and a new dining room fixture to GFCI outlets in the bathroom or a dedicated circuit in the garage, we’ll help you put light and power right where your family uses them. If a fixture is flickering or buzzing, we’ll fix the cause, not just swap the bulb. Light the outside too with outdoor lighting.
Light Fixture Installation
Indoor fixture installation, recessed lighting and lighting where you've never had it.
Light Fixture Repair
Flickering, buzzing or dead fixtures fixed at the source.
Outlet & Electrical Installations
Outlet installation and replacement, GFCI outlets and dedicated circuits.
Outdoor Lighting & Ceiling Fans
Inside and out, done safely and looking sharp.
Landscape and security lighting make your home safer and better looking after dark, and ceiling fan installation, replacement and wiring keeps every room comfortable. We’ll wire it right, weatherproof what’s outside and leave it looking clean. Planning a bigger project? Start with our $99 Electrical Safety Inspection.
Outdoor Lighting
Light up walkways, patios, landscaping and the outside of your home.
Ceiling Fan Installation
Ceiling fan installation and replacement, wired properly with support that holds.
Ceiling Fan Repair
Wobbling, humming or not spinning? We'll get it right.
Safety, Remodels & More
Inspections, remodels, grounding and power restoration.
Some jobs don’t fit neatly into a repair or an upgrade. If you need power restored after a home-side outage, a safety inspection before you buy or remodel, outlets moved for a new layout, grounding brought up to date, or the electrical side of a kitchen or bath remodel, start here.
Power Restoration
Lost power to part of the house, or the whole house, and the utility says it's not on their end? We track down the cause and work to get power safely restored.
Electrical Safety Inspection
Not sure how your home's electrical system is holding up? We look it over, point out what needs attention and explain what's urgent and what can wait.
Relocate Outlets & Switches
Rearranging a room, mounting a TV or updating a kitchen? We can move outlets and switches to where you actually need them.
Ground Wire Installation
Many older homes were built without modern grounding. We evaluate your grounding and install or update ground wiring where it's needed.
Electrical for Remodels
Kitchen, bath and basement projects usually need new circuits, lighting and outlets. We handle the electrical side so your remodel is wired right from the start.

Do you offer emergency electrical repairs in Cincinnati?
Yes. If part of your home lost power, a breaker won’t reset, or an outlet is sparking or smells hot, call us at (513) 298-9100 and we’ll get an electrician out to you as quickly as we can. If you ever see smoke or flames, get everyone out and call 911 first.
How do I know if my electrical panel needs an upgrade?
Common signs include breakers that trip often, lights that dim when the AC or a big appliance kicks on, a panel that feels warm or buzzes, an old fuse box, or a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel. Adding an EV charger, a hot tub or an addition can also push an older panel past what it was built for. One of our electricians can look at your panel and tell you honestly whether a repair, an upgrade or nothing at all makes sense.
How much does it cost to hire an electrician in Cincinnati?
Every home is different, so we don’t guess over the phone. Our residential service call is $99, and it’s waived when you choose one of the solutions we recommend. Your electrician finds the cause, explains it in plain English, and gives you options with the price before any work begins. And we offer financing options on just about any project for your convenience.
Do you install EV chargers and whole-home generators?
Yes. We install home EV charging stations on a dedicated circuit and whole-home standby generators for backup power, and we also repair and maintain generators. Before either one, we check that your panel can handle the extra load so everything runs safely.
Do you provide electrical safety inspections?
Yes. Our $99 Visual Electrical Safety Inspection is a great fit for older homes, new homeowners, or anyone adding big new loads. Your electrician looks over your panel, wiring, outlets and protection devices and walks you through anything that needs attention, from most urgent to least.
