It can be difficult to distinguish between an emergency electrical problem and a nuisance you can schedule services for. A wiring problem can often result in a genuine emergency. Whenever you are unsure, give us a call, and we will assist you with your diagnosis. There is no need to feel alone. Electrical emergencies are often characterized by the following signs:
Do you notice a lingering smell or does it come and go? Are your smoke detectors going off? You should inspect your appliances, all your outlets, ducts, and your breaker box to determine where the problem lies. You should immediately seek medical attention if you smell a burning odor, especially if it is unidentified.
A slight humming noise is normal from your breaker box since it runs an electrical current. You should, however, address the buzzing or humming if it becomes continuously louder, as it may indicate an overloaded circuit breaker. A circuit overload can cause fire hazards and heat the circuit wiring.
There are a few reasons for a circuit breaker to keep tripping, including:
It's likely that you have a faulty switch or lightbulb when your lights occasionally flicker. If they persist in flickering, this indicates a more serious problem such as a circuit overload, excessive voltage, or loose wiring. It is imperative to have an inspection conducted on these immediately because they are dangerous.
Electrical shock can occur in many situations, including:
When debris builds up inside outlets, it can cause problems. As a result of electricity passing through dust and dirt, arcing occurs. A fire may start when electricity is arcing, which creates heat. Outlets can also smoke if they have wiring issues, loose plugs, or too many devices connected to one outlet.
There is nothing unusual about losing power from storms or when the electrical company has a problem and everyone on the block loses power. You should seek immediate medical attention if you're the only one in the area to lose power after you've paid your monthly bill.
Electricity and water can cause electrocution when they mix. An improper seal on the box can allow water into your electrical panel, or cables from an old meter box can soak through and into the panel. In addition to ruining multiple electrical components, corrosion increases resistance in the circuits, which is also a fire hazard when it has been happening for a long time.
In the case of an active fire, you should immediately call 911 and put the fire out. Your local emergency electrician should be contacted once there is no longer a threat to your home or family. If the system has been fully compromised, we will replace it if necessary or inspect and diagnose the source of the fire before performing repairs.
When it comes to calling an emergency electrician, it's understandable to be hesitant because of the cost. We pride ourselves on providing quality electrical service at an honest and fair price at Mister Sparky® of Niceville.

Shout out to Juan and Corey. Replaced all aluminum wiring and brought house up to city code. Great job!

This company has great customer service, I was dissatisfied with job they had done for me so I called to ask if someone could come back out and fix what had been done. They sent Zack out within a few days and he completed the job to my complete satisfaction. Zack was professional, responsive, easy to work with and involved me in every decision he made. Despite my initiail experience, I would hire them again based on their customer service and willingness to do what is right for their customers.

Ralph came to my residence for an emergency, and we are so happy with the way he handled everything! We had a lot of questions that he patiently answered. He was very kind and was able to locate the problem within minutes. A lot of work needs to be done that we weren't aware of, and I'm grateful for his recommendations. Looking forward to having the issues fixed and feel safer in my home!

Richard from Mr. Sparky was absolutely stellar during my in-home consultation on upgrading my fuse box. He patiently answered all the questions I had (and I had a lot, lol), explained everything in a way that I understood, and gave me financing options that no other electrician offered. As a single, women homeowner, I'm always wondering if someone who comes in my home is offering me a reasonable price. Richard's professionalism, patience, and knowledge made me feel like Mr. Sparky was an honest company. Highly recommend Mr. Sparky for your electrical needs, and especially Richard if you're looking for someone who truly goes above and beyond.
