Finding the fault is the job
Anyone can replace a device. The craft is in the diagnosis — tracing why half a room went dead, why lights dim when the furnace kicks on, why a GFCI trips every time it rains. Our lead technician has been troubleshooting Chicago's housing stock — vintage two-flats, plaster walls, 60-year-old panels — since 2000. There isn't much he hasn't seen behind a Chicago wall.
What we diagnose & fix
- Dead or intermittent outlets & switches
- Flickering, dimming & buzzing lights
- Breakers that keep tripping
- GFCIs that won't hold — especially outdoors
- Partial power loss (some rooms dead, others fine)
- Warm outlets, scorched devices & burning smells
- Aluminum-wiring and knob-and-tube evaluations
- Post-inspection repair punch lists (home sales)
How it works
Call (872) 378-0533 and describe the symptom — a licensed electrician answers, not a call center, and honest phone triage is free. Most visits are same or next day, diagnosed on site, priced upfront before repair, and warrantied for a year. If it's dangerous — heat, smell, scorch marks — we treat it as an emergency, any hour.
