Frequently Asked Questions

How long will it take for an electrician to arrive during an emergency?

Our goal is to respond to emergencies as quickly as possible. While the exact arrival time can vary depending on location and workload, we prioritize urgent situations and aim to dispatch an electrician to your home within a few hours.

Can you provide me with a rough estimate over the phone for my electrical emergency?

In some cases, based on your description of the problem, we may be able to offer a general estimate over the phone. However, for a more accurate assessment and final quote, a licensed electrician will need to diagnose the issue firsthand.
