Electrical Repair in Atlanta, GA

Reoccurring Power Outages

Although most power outages are caused by something that is out of your control, some of them are caused by your home’s faulty electrical system. It is possible that frequent power outages are not caused by the power grid. These power outages may not affect your whole home. Specific rooms may not have power while the rest of the house does. To detect the cause of the problem, you need an electrical professional. Contact Aardvark Electric, your favorite electrical repair company, and we will send one of our expert electricians out to find the reason for your frequent power outages.

Contact us online or give us a call at (404) 806-6851  to schedule an appointment with one of our electricians for a home electrical repair service in Atlanta.

Electrical Repair Violations 

When was the last time you had an inspection? If it’s been a while, there’s a possibility that your home is not electrically compliant. There could be multiple code violations within your home. Not only does this decrease your property’s value, but more importantly, it impacts your family’s safety. Code violations can be anything from having the wrong circuit breaker to requiring GFCI outlet installation. It’s also possible that you do not have enough electrical bonding, or your home is not grounded. 

If you live in an older home, you may still have knob-and-tube wiring. Knob-and-tube wiring is a wiring system that needs ceramic posts to be nailed into the frame of your house to keep the wiring away from the wood. It may have been great for older homes. However, nowadays, it can pose a serious fire hazard. The wiring systems are not grounded and also have enameled cloth around the wires which is flammable. In addition to that, it’s possible that the insulation on the wires may have worn out. This means you have exposed wires running through your home. Some may suggest a DIY modification to avoid rewiring. However, the best thing that you can do is call a professional electrician to replace your knob-and-tube wiring with the correct wiring.

The only way to find out if your home is electrically compliant is to hire a certified electrician. Arrange for one of our electricians to inspect your home and repair or upgrade anything that is out of date. Contact us today for professional and trusted electrical repairs in Atlanta.

Electrical Wiring Repair

Since your wires are hidden away, it can be nearly impossible to know when they need to be repaired. Your wiring is under immense pressure as it is responsible for transferring electricity throughout your whole home. It can be difficult to tell when you need electrical wiring repair. However, there are a few sure signs that can point you in the right direction. 

Unusual Smells

If you smell burning plastic around your outlets, there is a good chance that you need to have your house rewired, and it should be dealt with immediately as it is a fire hazard. 

Scorch Marks

When you see scorch marks on your outlets, this too is a fire hazard and needs to be dealt with promptly. 

Humming Sounds

Strange humming noises coming from your outlets may mean that your wiring is faulty.

The Seriousness of Rewiring

It’s possible that you could have a ground fault. This is when a live wire comes into contact with a ground wire or any other metal components. This is extremely dangerous and can cause shocks and fires. Keep your family safe by rewiring your home and scheduling a home electrical repair service.

Electrical Lighting Repair in Atlanta, GA

It can be a major inconvenience when one of your lights is not working. If you’ve changed the light bulb, but your light still won’t go on, there is probably a bigger issue with your lighting. Signs of faulty lighting are:

Why You Should Hire a Professional to Take Care of Your Electrical Repairs

While you may enjoy taking care of your own home in as many ways as possible, if you are not a professional electrician, it is unwise to take on any electrical repairs or upgrades. Especially if your home has not been inspected for a while. It is extremely dangerous to work on your electrical system as there is a risk of electrocution. 

There’s also a risk of repairing your electrical system incorrectly. If you do not know what to look for, you could do the wrong thing and make your home unsafe to use. For your home to stay electrically compliant, hire a certified electrician to take care of all your electrical repairs. From electrical safety inspections to the complete rewiring of your home, we are here for you. After all, Aardvark Electric is your trusted electrical repair company.

Elie helped us diagnose an issue we were having with our generator during a major hurricane. He was very patient with us over the phone during this trying time. He listed, in layman’s terms, possible fixes and helped us every step of the way until we were able to solve the issue. This man helped us out even though he did not have to. Literally a lifesaver. Hats off to this wonderful gentleman.

We used Aardvark for some fairly major external and internal repairs, including a panel update. Throughout the process, which required multiple visits, we were very pleased with the communication, skill, and professionalism of our technicians, Remus, Elie, and Blake, as well as Kristin in the office, who was very friendly and communicative from start to finish. Thank you for helping us through this big project!

The company in general was very responsive, we had some small connection issues after the first day of work and they found a way to get a technician back out quickly. Remus was extremely professional and informative, he answered all of my questions, walked me through the work that was being done, and got the work done quite quickly!
