## Situations we see in Richmond

### Warm switch or cover plate

Heat means resistance, and resistance means a loose termination. This gets repaired the day we find it, not scheduled for later.

### One outlet quit working

We check for a tripped GFCI upstream, then open the run and look for a failed back-stab or loose neutral. It is almost always a connection, not the outlet itself.

### GFCI won't reset

Either the device has failed, there is real leakage current downstream, or the load side is miswired. Metering tells us which in a few minutes.

### Half the outlets in a room dead

Classic mid-run failure. We split the circuit and work from both ends until the dead leg shows up, then repair the joint properly.

## Reviews from Contra Costa County

★★★★★

Our restaurant lost the walk-in circuit on a Friday. They came out after close, traced it to a failed feeder lug, and we opened Saturday on time.

GFCI in the bathroom kept tripping. They found real leakage in an old fixture rather than just replacing the GFCI and calling it done.

Standby generator install. They sized it to what we actually use rather than the biggest unit, then walked me through the transfer switch and the exercise cycle.

## Electrical Repair in Richmond — questions

Why do my breakers trip when I use the microwave and toaster together?

That circuit is carrying more load than it was designed for. The fix is a dedicated circuit for the heavy appliance, which is a common upgrade in older Richmond kitchens.

How much does electrical repair cost in Richmond?

Simple device and switch repairs sit at the low end, circuit tracing and panel work at the higher end. We diagnose first, then hand you a flat number for the repair before touching anything. Call (833) 652-8933 for a quote on your situation.

Can you repair one outlet, or is there a minimum job?

One outlet is a normal call for us in Richmond. There is no requirement to bundle work you don't need.

Will you find the problem on the first visit?

That is the goal, and it is why we meter rather than guess. If a fault is intermittent we can install monitoring to catch it instead of charging you for repeat visits.

Do you fix work another electrician or a previous owner did?

Regularly. Unpermitted additions, back-stabbed devices and undersized wiring are some of the most common things we correct in Contra Costa County homes.
