Outlet & Switch Repair
Diagnosed Fast. Fixed Right.
Dead outlets, GFCI failures, dimmer switches that buzz, 3-way switches that only work sometimes. Most are diagnosed over the phone in under five minutes and fixed in a single visit.
When the outlet stops working and nobody can figure out why.
What the Warning Signs Actually Mean
A dead outlet that doesn't show an obvious tripped breaker is almost always a wiring issue somewhere along the circuit — a loose connection that worked fine for years and finally let go, or a GFCI outlet somewhere upstream that tripped and cut power to everything downstream.
That last one catches a lot of people off guard. A single GFCI outlet in a bathroom, kitchen, or garage can control power to outlets in completely different rooms. Before calling anyone, check every GFCI outlet in the house and press the Reset button. If that doesn't fix it, call Tommy.
Dimmer Switch Problems
The dimmer switch in the dining room that buzzes faintly at every setting except full brightness — this is almost always a compatibility issue. Not all dimmers work with all bulbs. The combination of a dimmer designed for incandescent bulbs paired with LED fixtures is one of the most common causes of buzzing, flickering, and poor dimming range.
The fix is usually a dimmer that's properly rated for the LED load — a small change that makes a noticeable difference.
3-Way and 4-Way Switch Repair
The light switch at the top of the stairs that only works sometimes. These are designed to control a single fixture from two or more locations. When they fail, the problem is almost always in the wiring — a loose connection, a wire on the wrong terminal, or a failed switch that's only failed in certain positions.

Electrical problems have a way of looking minor on the surface while something more serious is going on underneath. A warm outlet is never just a warm outlet — heat in an electrical component means resistance, and resistance means potential arcing.
