Sparking outlet, burning smell, or the power just went out? Call now and describe what you're seeing.
A real electrical emergency — sparks, a burning smell, a scorched outlet or panel, or smoke — is not something to wait on. If there's visible fire or smoke, get out and call 911 first. For anything short of that, call us directly and tell us exactly what you're seeing and smelling; that tells us how to prioritize getting to you.
Especially near an outlet, switch, or the panel itself.
From an outlet, switch, or appliance connection.
When the utility isn't reporting an outage in your area.
A panel cover or breaker that's warm to the touch.
Tell us what you're seeing — sparks, smell, smoke, or just no power. We'll ask a few quick questions to understand the risk level and give you a straight answer on how soon we can get there. We don't quote a guaranteed response time we can't stand behind; we tell you honestly what today looks like.
We respond to electrical emergencies throughout Los Angeles.
A burning smell, visible sparks, a scorched or hot outlet/panel, smoke, or a sudden total loss of power are all situations to call about immediately rather than wait.
If you can safely reach the panel, switching off the affected circuit or the main breaker is a reasonable first step while you call. If there's visible fire or smoke, get everyone out and call 911 first — an electrician comes after the fire department, not instead of it.
Call and describe what's happening — we'll tell you honestly how soon we can get there based on the day and the situation. We don't promise a response window we can't back up.
Not usually on its own — but a breaker that trips repeatedly, feels warm, or won't reset is worth a same-week call even if it is not a smoke-and-sparks situation.
For issues that aren't urgent but still need a fix.
If the emergency traces back to an outdated panel.
For urgent issues at a business location.
