What types of electrical problems do you repair?

We handle many common issues, including flickering lights, dead outlets, tripped breakers, faulty switches, burning smells, partial power loss, and damaged wiring. We also troubleshoot hard-to-find electrical faults and explain the problem clearly before we recommend the right repair.

How do I know if I need an electrician or just a simple reset?

If a breaker trips once after heavy use, a reset may solve it. If it keeps tripping, outlets stop working, lights dim, or you notice buzzing, heat, or a burning smell, call us. Repeated problems usually mean a deeper electrical issue that needs safe professional troubleshooting.

Is it dangerous to wait on an electrical repair?

Yes, it can be. Electrical problems can lead to damaged devices, nuisance outages, shock risks, or even fire hazards. If you notice sparks, smoke, burning odors, warm outlets, or sudden power loss, it is best to stop using that circuit and have us inspect it right away.

Do you diagnose the problem before doing the repair?

Yes. We start with electrical troubleshooting to find the real cause of the issue, not just the symptom. That helps prevent repeat problems and wasted money. Once we identify the fault, we explain our findings and recommend the safest, most cost-effective repair.

Are you licensed and insured for electrical repair work?

Yes. Phillip's Electrical Services is a licensed and insured electrical contractor serving the Greater Atlanta Area. With decades of hands-on experience, we complete repairs to code, focus on safety, and work hard to give our customers confidence that the job is done the right way.

Why should I choose Phillip's Electrical Services for troubleshooting and repairs?

We bring real experience, careful diagnostics, and professional service to every job. We do not guess at electrical problems or push repairs you do not need. Our goal is to find the issue, fix it safely, and give you peace of mind. Contact us today to schedule service.

Electrical Repairs & Troubleshooting

When something electrical stops working the way it should, we help you find the cause and fix it the right way. At Phillip's Electrical Services, we provide electrical repair and troubleshooting for homes and light commercial properties across the Greater Atlanta Area. Our goal is simple: restore safe, reliable power and prevent small issues from turning into bigger hazards.

Electrical problems can show up in many ways. You may have breakers that keep tripping, outlets that stop working, flickering or dimming lights, buzzing sounds, burning smells, hot switches, partial power loss, damaged wiring, or circuits that cannot handle modern appliances. These are not problems to ignore. In many cases, they point to overloaded circuits, loose connections, worn devices, faulty breakers, grounding issues, or code-related safety concerns.

We start with a careful diagnosis. Instead of guessing, we inspect the affected circuit, panel components, outlets, switches, fixtures, and visible wiring to identify the source of the problem. Once we know what is causing the issue, we explain it in plain language and recommend the best repair. That may include replacing a breaker, repairing a damaged wire, fixing a bad connection, replacing switches or receptacles, correcting unsafe electrical work, or addressing panel-related issues that affect performance and safety.

Our repair work is focused on safety, code compliance, and long-term reliability. As a licensed and insured electrical contractor, we follow proper electrical standards and use proven repair methods that protect your property and the people inside it. With 28 years of hands-on experience, we know how to troubleshoot efficiently and solve problems without cutting corners.

If you are dealing with intermittent power, unexplained electrical issues, or signs of unsafe wiring, we are ready to help. Fast, professional troubleshooting can save time, reduce risk, and keep your electrical system working the way it should. Contact Phillip's Electrical Services today to schedule electrical repair and troubleshooting service.

Our Electrical Repair Process

We make electrical repairs and troubleshooting clear, safe, and efficient from the first call to the final safety check. Our process is built to find the real problem fast, complete code-conscious repairs, and give you confidence before we leave.

Call Review & Service Scheduling

We start by asking the right questions about flickering lights, tripped breakers, dead outlets, burning smells, or power loss so we can understand the symptoms before we arrive. Then we schedule a convenient service window and explain what to expect, including likely diagnostic time and next steps.

On-Site Testing & Fault Diagnosis

Once on site, we inspect the affected circuit, panel, devices, and wiring using proven electrical troubleshooting methods to pinpoint the root cause, not just the symptom. After testing for safety, load issues, loose connections, and code concerns, we explain the problem clearly and review your repair options.

Code-Safe Repair & Final Verification

After approval, we complete the electrical repair using quality parts and safe workmanship, whether the issue involves switches, outlets, breakers, wiring, or panel-related faults. We finish with operational testing, a clean work area, and a walkthrough so you know the repair is working properly and safely.

“Phillip installed a 220 volt outlet for EV charging in my garage, including running conduit along walls and ceiling of garage to where I wanted the outlet placed. He responded to my inquiry very quickly, and came by to examine the scope of work, explain it to me, and then scheduled it. He was timely, very professional, did exactly what he committed to do, and provided answers to my questions as well as additional information I needed”

“Phillip has worked on several large and small projects with me. He wired my basement for an in-law suite. He’s repaired a faulty GFCI outlet. He’s added a sub-panel when needed. And today he helped me get two attic vent fans running properly and installed a humidistat on my pool enclosure vent fan.. He’s a pro and nice to boot! I’ve recommended him to friends and they’ve been pleased too.”

Jennie L.

“I’m thrilled with the work Phil did at our home! He has an incredible eye for detail, and clearly takes pride in his work. He will take the time to explain what he’s doing and why, and never fails to take your input into account. Especially with things like electrical work, where you really don’t want things done incorrectly, it is a real blessing to find someone like Phil who does great work and is trustworthy. We will certainly be using his services again in the future! A+”
