Signs You Need a Professional Electrician

No one really thinks too much about their electricity. We expect that when we flip the switch the light will turn on, the oven will preheat, and the computer will restart. There are times, however, when you need to consider what’s happening behind the plugs, switches, and panels.

Here are some signs that you need to call on an electrician for Right Touch Electrical:

• There’s a burning smell
• Fuses keep blowing or breakers trip often
• A light switch or outlet produces a shock
• Buzzing can be heard in the walls
• An outlet or switch is hot
• The wiring is more than 20 years old
• Multiple extension cords are needed

Handling electricity requires specific training and knowledge. Do not attempt to DIY an electrical problem or rely on a general handyman. Only licensed electricians like those at Right Touch Electrical can ensure that the job is done correctly and safely.

Comprehensive Electrical Repair and Installation

More than ever, our homes and businesses rely on electricity. Lighting, appliances, electronics, and smart features demand reliable electrical services.

Our highly trained electricians at Right Touch Electrical have the skill and know-how to handle a wide variety of electrical services for residential and commercial customers.

Fuse and Circuit Breaker Replacement: The terms “fuse” and “circuit breaker” describe two different methods of protecting electrical circuits from hazards. A fuse usually melts when too much current flows through it and needs to be replaced right away. A circuit breaker trips, or shuts itself off, when too much demand is placed on it. Resetting the breaker is a temporary fix, but an electrician from Right Touch Electrical can evaluate why the circuit is tripping and replace it when appropriate.

Electrical Circuits: Overloaded electrical circuits are a fire hazard. Improperly installed circuits are a disaster waiting to happen. The problem often is caused when too many appliances are on the same circuit. Our electricians can assess the root of the problem. Dedicated circuits that serve a single appliance or fixture might be necessary. HVAC systems, ovens, hot water heaters, refrigerators, hot tubs, and more often need a dedicated circuit.

Electrical Outlets and Switches: If you feel a shock or see a spark when using an outlet or switch, or if they simply stop working, call Right Touch Electrical right away. Light switches have several components that can become loose or break over time. Electrical outlets can also have failed internal connections. Two-pronged outlets are more vulnerable to power surges and electric shocks because they don’t have a ground wire. If your home or business still has these outlets, it’s time to have them replaced.

Electrical Panel Upgrades & Repair: The electrical panel is the main distribution point for electrical circuits in your home. Panels should be replaced if they are 20 years old. Circumstances also arise when repairs and upgrades need to be made before the 20-year mark. If the panel becomes discolored or makes crackling sounds, you probably have an electrical problem that needs to be addressed. Your panel may need an upgrade if you have added new appliances or fixtures.

House Rewiring: If your home or business was built more than 20 years ago, the building was not constructed with the latest building codes. Structures with knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring are particularly vulnerable to fire and other hazards. At Right Touch Electrical, we use copper wiring for its safety and superior conductivity.

EV Charging Station: Electric vehicles are becoming more common on Texas roads, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. By the end of 2020, more than 52,000 electric vehicles were registered in Texas, making the Lone Star State behind only California and Florida. For those wanting to break away from gasoline, Right Touch Electrical can install electric charging stations at your home or business.

Lighting Services: Whether you are building new or remodeling, lighting affects the mood and usability of any space. Our expert technicians know how to design and install lighting that creates the ambiance, brightness, and visual appeal you want. From chandeliers and recessed lighting to landscape and pool lighting and LED upgrades, we have your lighting solutions.
