How much does it cost to fix electrical problems in a house?
The cost for an electrical contractor to fix existing or ongoing electrical problems in your house varies drastically based on a wide range of issues.
There are several factors at play, including:
Providing a hard estimate is difficult without knowing any of the above.
However, we do recommend that if you are concerned about electrical problems in your home, you call in a professional to take a look; it is NOT advisable to delay or leave the problem because of worries about price. Ignoring electrical problems could lead to much more dangerous issues down the road.
What should I do if an electrical outlet is not working in my house?
If an electrical outlet is not working in your home, check the breaker and switch it fully off and on.
If this does not fix the problem, call us at 613-777-6008 or book a home electrical service online today.
What should I do if water gets into an electrical outlet?
If water has made its way into an electrical outlet in your home, turn off the breaker and search for the cause.
See if it’s a major or minor amount of water – for example, is it just a one-off issue? Or has a pipe burst or started leaking?
Determining the cause of the problem will help you know who to call, as you may also need a plumber in the event the issue is related to your home’s pipes.
Once you know the cause of the problem, give us a call at 613-777-6008 or book a home electrical service online today.
How do I fix a tripped circuit breaker?
To fix a tripped circuit breaker, switch the breaker fully off and on.
If this does not fix the problem, call us at 613-777-6008 or book a home electrical service online today.
I’m not getting enough voltage in my house. What’s the cause?
A lack of voltage may be an issue with your hydro provider, or it may be due to loose wiring in the home.
We recommend calling your hydro provider first to determine if the problem is on their end. If not, call us at 613-777-6008.
What causes an electrical wall outlet to stop working?
An electrical wall outlet may stop working due to an issue with the breaker. It may also be a result of a broken GCFI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet.
The wire inside may also have disconnected.
It’s best to leave finding the cause to a professional who can diagnose the issue and fix it safely.
How do I find a short circuit in my house?
WARNING: Do not, under any circumstances, attempt to find a short circuit in your house by yourself! Leave to this a professional electrical contractor.

This issue is likely due to a bad breaker.
If this has happened in your home and it’s time for a replacement circuit breaker, call us at 613-777-6008 or book a home electrical service online today.
Why would outlets and a ceiling fan suddenly stop working?

My room’s electricity randomly turns off and on again. Why?
This may be an issue with your current hydro provider or a loose wire in your home.
If the issue begins outside, it could also be related to weather conditions; for example, heavy winds, rains or a thunderstorm.
How often should an electrician look at my electrical system?
If your home’s electrical system is aluminum, you should have an electrician inspect it every 25 years.
If your home’s electrical system is copper, regular inspections are not overly necessary, as this material is meant to last a long time.
We do recommend booking an electrical inspection when buying a house, however. It’s best to get one done before you move in to ensure everything is up to code, safe, and of the utmost quality.
What are the risks of trying to do electrical work yourself?
WARNING: It is extremely dangerous to attempt ANY electrical work in your home by yourself. Doing so could result in serious injury or death.
Please call a professional to inspect, diagnose & fix any electrical issues you may be experiencing at home.

How much does electrical wiring in a house cost?
The cost for a residential electrical wiring service varies drastically based on a wide range of issues.
There are several factors at play, including:
The size of your home
The size of the wiring project
The scope of the wiring project – for example, new additions such as media rooms, sound systems, security systems, etc.
Providing a hard estimate is difficult without knowing any of the above.
To get started on a home assessment, contact the pros at Home Aire Care today.
How do I know if my home’s electrical wiring is bad?
These are some signs of poor electrical wiring in your home:
If you’ve noticed some or all of these signs, it may be time for an electrical inspection & rewiring, contact the pros at Home Aire Care today.
How do I know when it’s time to replace my electrical wiring?
If your home is on aluminum electrical wiring, you should call an electrical contractor to replace it right away.
Aluminum wiring is not safe, and most insurance companies will no longer allow for coverage of homes that still use it.
If your home is on knob & tube wiring, you might want to consider upgrading to a more modern system.

How long does it take an electrician to wire a house?
How long it takes an electrical contractor to wire a house depends largely on the house’s size.
For a bungalow, for example, a relative estimate would be about one week. Homes with additional floors can expect an extra week for each floor.
This is still, however, an estimate; the actual time will vary from house to house and project to project.
What are signs that electrical work was done by an amateur?
Professional electricians take pride in their work.
One good example: if the breaker box in a house isn’t square, but instead appears crooked or shoddily placed on the wall, it’s likely the home’s electrical work was not done by a professional or certified contractor.

How long does a home’s electrical wiring last?
Copper wiring will last a very long time.
Aluminum, however, will last around 20 years, and should be replaced at that point.
Can I (and should I) remove old unused electrical wiring?
No, not yourself; never attempt to move or remove old wiring yourself.
A certified electrical contractor should be dispatched to inspect it themselves and confirm that it is, in fact, unused. Attempting to do so yourself is not safe and could result in severe injury or even death.

Great customer service once again. Had a new unit installed a few months ago and the team was fabulous. Today, I had a few questions about the new system and a minor concern. Called this morning. Kevin showed up here this evening (accommodating my schedule) and everything is perfect. He answered all my questions and addressed my concern. Thank you to your entire Team for tremendous customer care. Peace of mind goes a long way! Thanks Kevin!
