Local details
Decatur sits in DeKalb County, and the properties we work on there run the full range from newer construction to houses that have been added onto several times over the decades. That matters for emergency electrical work, because the condition of the existing service equipment and wiring determines how straightforward the job is.
We look at what is actually there before quoting. That means opening the panel, testing rather than assuming, and telling you plainly if the scope is smaller or larger than you expected.
Scheduling in Decatur is usually same-day or next-day for repairs, and within the week for planned installations. Emergency calls are dispatched around the clock on (866) 651-5242.
Where the work needs a permit — service changes, new circuits, generator and EV charger installs — we file it with the authority having jurisdiction over DeKalb County, meet the inspector, and give you the signed paperwork afterwards.
Reviews
We moved into a 1968 ranch with a fuse box and two-prong outlets everywhere. They mapped the whole house, gave us a written plan, and did the rewire in stages so we never lost the kitchen.

For most calls inside Decatur and the surrounding DeKalb County area we aim to have a technician rolling within about an hour of your call, and often sooner during the day. When you call (866) 651-5242 the dispatcher gives you a real arrival window rather than a vague promise, and calls you back if traffic or weather changes it.
We quote a flat price for the repair before we begin, and that price is what you pay. There is a call-out fee for after-hours dispatch that is disclosed on the phone before we come out, so nothing on the final invoice is a surprise.
If you smell burning, see sparks or see smoke, get everyone away from the area and call 911 first. Otherwise, switch off the affected breaker if you can reach the panel safely, unplug anything on that circuit, and keep water away from the panel. Do not attempt to reset a breaker repeatedly if it trips right back.
It can be. A breaker doing its job is protecting you from an overload or a short, and repeatedly resetting it defeats that protection. If it trips instantly with nothing plugged in, or if the panel is warm or smells hot, treat it as urgent and call (866) 651-5242.
That pattern usually points to a lost leg of the incoming service, a failed main breaker, or a bad neutral at the panel or meter. It is one of the most common emergency calls we take in Decatur and it needs testing at the service equipment, not guesswork at the outlets.
Yes. We document what failed with photos and a written scope, make the property safe first, and provide the paperwork your adjuster needs for the repair claim.
