Common Outlet & Switch Problems

When an outlet or switch is not working, it is tempting to try to fix the problem yourself. However, this is not a good idea. There are a few reasons for this. The first is that you can be seriously injured from an electric shock or fire. The second is that you can do more damage to the device and make the problem worse. The best way to handle a problem with an outlet or switch is to call a licensed electrician for professional outlets & switches service in Winston-Salem.

We can help with a variety of problems, such as:

• Broken switches: If your switch is not working, you may be able to fix it by replacing the switch. However, if the problem is not with the switch itself, it is important to have the problem diagnosed by a professional electrician.
• Dead outlets: An outlet that is not working can be the result of a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse. If the outlet is not working, we can help you find the cause of the problem and provide the right solution.
• Loose outlets: An outlet can become loose with use, which can be a safety hazard. If you notice that an outlet is loose, it is important to have it repaired as soon as possible.
• Overloaded circuits: If you are constantly tripping a circuit breaker, it may be because you have too many devices plugged into the same circuit. We can help you determine the best way to distribute your devices on different circuits to prevent overloading.

When you contact us about a problem outlet or switch, we start by asking detailed questions about what you are noticing so we can prioritize safety. On-site, we test the affected devices, check related breakers, and inspect wiring behind cover plates or in nearby junction boxes. This thorough approach helps us determine whether the issue is isolated or part of a larger circuit or panel concern that should be addressed immediately.

Many homes and businesses in Winston-Salem were built before modern electronics and high-demand appliances became common. Older wiring or fewer outlets can lead to frequent issues. During our visit, we can discuss whether adding new outlets or circuits is a better solution than repeated repairs.
