Service Calls & Troubleshooting in Vista, CA

We schedule most service calls within 1 to 2 business days. For urgent situations — such as a total loss of power, burning smell, or sparking — we prioritize same-day or next-day response.

We charge a diagnostic fee to come out, evaluate the issue, and provide a repair quote. If you approve the repair, the diagnostic fee is typically applied toward the total cost. We always explain pricing before starting any work.

Repeated tripping usually indicates an overloaded circuit, a short circuit, a ground fault, or a failing breaker. Our diagnostic process identifies the specific cause so we can recommend the right fix — whether that is redistributing loads, replacing a breaker, or repairing faulty wiring.

Turn off the breaker for that circuit immediately. If you cannot identify the circuit, turn off the main breaker. Do not use the outlet or panel until a licensed electrician has inspected and cleared it. Call us for a priority service call.
