Questions for a Residential Electrician Electrician FAQ
While it's easy to write off the occasional electrical mishap, like an outlet that sparks or a breaker that trips every so often, residential electrical problems can range from concerning to hazardous. If you've never had electrical work done before, you may have a few questions about residential electrical services. Browse our electrician FAQ section below to answer some common questions before contacting an electrician. If you have any lingering concerns, don't hesitate to contact the professional electricians at Custom Electrical Services !
Frequent breaker trips are usually a sign that the circuit is overloaded. This may be because you are using too many appliances at once, or you may have a malfunctioning socket, which can be a fire hazard. An experienced electrician can inspect the circuitry to determine the underlying cause and make any necessary repairs to stop breaker trips.
A small flash of electricity when you plug in an appliance is not always a cause of concern. If there is a spark every time you use an outlet, you may be dealing with a short–circuiting outlet. If left untreated, short circuits can lead to fires as they break down insulation and wires. Contacting a professional is the safest way to diagnose the problem and find a solution.
If you're reading this electrician FAQ, one of your biggest questions may be whether your electrical project even needs an electrician. Custom Electrical Services advises homeowners to call a licensed local electrician when doing any extensive electrical work, such as electrical installation or home rewiring. A licensed electrician is trained and experienced in more complicated electrical projects, guaranteeing a thorough professional result.
Your home and your home's safety should always be the number one priority in any electrical project. While some minor residential electric projects can be managed on your own, any form of electrical work is dangerous. Even minor issues may indicate a serious problem in your home's electrical system. Contacting a licensed, professional electrician like those at Custom Electrical Services is the safest way to ensure a job is well done.
Any electrician who works on your house should be licensed in your state. Depending on the complexity of the project, an unlicensed electrician may not be qualified to meet code or state inspection requirements. You can verify an electrician's license by checking with your local licensing department.

We were contacted by a very professional lady from Custom Electrical Service to perform a repair to our solar panels. They had been contacted by SunPower that our unit was not producing correctly. We were told told the service was under warranty and would be completed in the next 2 - 3 weeks. An appointment was scheduled and the service people came when they said they would come! The gentlemen (and Ii use the term correctly) were very polite and respectful of our property. They had to replace things (which means there were old parts to dispose of). There was no trace of any debris when they left. Our panels are now working perfectly again!— D P

I have used Custom Electric for several needed repairs. Some of our outlets and switches were not up to code and we needed them replaced. There was a problem with some exterior outlets as well. They were replaced and protected with the appropriate weather covers. All the work we have had Custom Electric perform has been very professional and completed without any further issues. Everyone I have dealt with has been very knowledgeable, helpful, and professional. I would recommend them to anyone needing electrical work. I think their pricing has been very fair as well. I know who I will call or refer when there is a need for electrical work.— Tim

Custom Electrical was awesome. We had some issues with our solar panels and turns out the service panel had some issues too. They put in a warranty work order with the manufacturer and took care of the issue right away. I was very impressed with the responsiveness of the company and further impressed by the fact that they were not the original panel installation company, but treated me like a long time customer. This company will be doing all my future electrical work and will be my go to company when asked for a reference by my friends and family. Thank you Custom Electrical!— Joseph Arico
