Electrical Repair

If your home is giving you warning signs of electrical trouble, don’t wait for an emergency to get a reliable electrical service. A small investment now can prevent serious expenses, damage, or safety risks. Whether you’ve had storm damage, noticed aging wiring, or want to make sure your system is safe, call Mr. Electric. Our team offers professional electrical repair and inspection services that can help. Read more to find out the most common signs that your system needs help and why it’s important to find an experienced electrician who can protect your home or business.

Why Loose or Overheating Connections Are Dangerous

Wiring that’s loose, corroded, or poorly connected creates resistance that causes heat. Eventually, it can melt insulation, damage outlets, and spark fires. You might notice a faint burning smell coming from an outlet or a breaker that keeps tripping no matter what you unplug. These are clear signs that your system needs a professional repair. Don’t try to tighten wires yourself. Even if the power is off, touching the wrong part of your panel or outlet can lead to serious injury. Qualified technicians know how to safely test, repair, and, if needed, replace damaged components. If a wire is overheating, it’s already too late for DIY. Early detection is your best protection. If you notice heat or discoloration around outlets or hear a faint buzzing noise, schedule a service right away.

Wiring Repairs After Water or Pest Damage

Few things damage electrical wiring faster than water damage or rodent activity. If your home recently experienced flooding, a roof leak, or a plumbing issue that reached your walls or ceiling, your wiring may be compromised. Water exposure can corrode wires, short out connections, and degrade insulation. Rodents and pests cause similar dangers. Mice and squirrels can chew through insulation, which exposes live wires. If you suspect water damage or signs of pests in your attic, crawlspace, or walls, an electrician in Green Township should inspect your wiring as part of your repair process.

Electrical Repairs That Need to Be Scheduled ASAP

There are a few electrical problems that should never be put on a to-do list. If you notice any of the following, call for electrical service immediately:

  • A breaker that keeps tripping for the same circuit
  • Smoke or a burning smell near outlets or switches
  • An outlet that feels hot or looks scorched
  • A buzzing sound from your breaker panel
  • Outlets or switches that shock you when touched
  • Lights that flicker throughout the entire house

These are all warning signs that your electrical system has a serious fault. Some may point to issues in your service panel, while others might be caused by damaged or overloaded wiring. Either way, they are dangerous. Every time a breaker trips or a wire overheats, the potential for fire, electrical shock, or appliance failure increases. Calling an electrician at the first sign of trouble protects your home and your family. A professional can isolate the problem, perform the necessary repairs, and test the system to make sure everything is safe moving forward.

Why Electrical Repairs Aren’t a DIY Job

We live in an age of tutorials and how-to videos, but electrical systems aren’t like replacing a faucet or painting a room. Working with electricity without the right training or tools can result in serious injury. It also puts your home at risk of future hazards, especially if the work is not up to code. Most areas require that major electrical work be completed by electricians. Electrical codes exist to prevent fires, injury, and structural damage. When you call a professional, you’re paying for their safety training and their ability to recognize when a small problem means something much more serious. That kind of knowledge comes from years of experience, not a ten-minute video.

What’s something most people forget when thinking about electrical safety?

Many people overlook the condition of surge protectors and power strips. These wear out over time and can quietly become hazards, especially if they're overloaded or tucked away under furniture.

Are two-prong outlets still safe to use?
What should I do during a power outage before calling an electrician?
Is it okay to paint over outlets or switch covers?
Can an outlet go bad even if it still works?
What’s a dedicated circuit, and when do I need one?

I called into Mr. Electric of Cincinnati West and was greeted by Greg. He was super polite and asked how he could help. He walked me through rewiring this antique fixture in my dining room and got me through mounting it with no issues at all. Greg was extremely helpful and patient and I will definitely be using him and his team again in the future!!

Greg's team is the best! Mr. Electric are responsive, dependable, professional and work with a sense of urgency. Mr. Electric is our dedicated electriation from now on. We had an emergency outage day before New years Eve. Greg responded to my request within minutes, and the crew came out to my house within 2 hrs. We were out of state, and Greg kept us informed of the progress every step of the way. We later on has to work with insurance and Greg provided all the paper work, and even talked to our insurance to help us get the coverage. James and Nicolas worked day and night on the new years Eve and New years day to help get the electricity back. We were able to spend the new years Eve at home all thanks to Nicolas and James's hard work.

White Oak, OH

We had a bad wind storm, a tree fell on my neighbors property and it managed to completely rip out the power supply to our building. James and Nick came out and assured me that they could fix it in a timely manner. That was an understatement! They were so kind, professional and caring (I have a mentally disabled child and they understood my frustrations) they had my power supply reconnected to the building and the power back on by the very next day! (NEW YEARS EVE!) Saving me a TON of money on food and shelter expenses (due to cold temperatures outside)! Hero's in real life don't wear capes, they do their jobs with compassion for others. Thank you James and Nick #Grateful on Elm Park Dr.

James did a super job. He went above and beyond to replace the outlet for my oven. Also, he changed difficult to reach light bulbs in my stairwell and upgraded the light switch. Finally, Greg efforts to find time to squeeze me in for a last minute appointment on a busy holiday weekend. I appreciate both of them and the work they did. More importantly, I felt like they treated me as if I were part of their family.
