## Electrical Repair in Los Altos Hills, CA

A dead outlet is a symptom, not a diagnosis. Our Los Altos Hills technicians trace the circuit back through every device on it, because the failure is usually upstream of the outlet that stopped working.

Call (833) 652-8933 and describe what is happening. If it is a same-day job we will book it today, and if it needs a site visit to quote properly we will tell you that too.

## Situations we see in Los Altos Hills

### 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.

### 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.

### 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 Santa Clara County

★★★★★

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.

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.

## Electrical Repair in Los Altos Hills — questions

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.

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 Los Altos Hills kitchens.

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 Santa Clara County homes.

How much does electrical repair cost in Los Altos Hills?

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 Los Altos Hills. There is no requirement to bundle work you don't need.
