Common Electrical Emergencies We Handle
Power Outages (Partial or Whole-Home)
If a portion of your home or your entire building suddenly loses power, we will isolate the fault and restore service safely. Moreover, we will explain what happened and how to prevent a repeat.
Electrical Fires or Burning Odors
Overheated conductors, failing breakers, or overloaded circuits can create dangerous conditions. If you smell burning near outlets or at your panel, call us immediately and keep a safe distance. Then let our team make the area safe.
Exposed or Damaged Wiring
Nicked, chewed, or loose wiring is a shock and fire hazard. We secure, repair, or replace the affected runs to code. Furthermore, we will recommend protective steps to avoid future damage.
Frequently Tripped Breakers or Blown Fuses
Repeated trips point to overloads, shorts, or failing breakers. We will troubleshoot the cause and correct it at the source. As a result, your system will run more reliably.
Storm-Related Damage & Power Surges
North Texas storms can down lines and cause damaging surges. We assess panels, replace compromised components, and recommend surge protection to prevent repeat issues. In addition, we can review whole home options for stronger protection.
Hot, Buzzing, or Sparking Outlets/Switches
Abnormal heat, noise, or visible arcing are red flag symptoms. We will de energize, repair, and make things safe. After that, we will document what we found for your records.

Licensed, Experienced Electricians
Your safety comes first. Every visit starts with a licensed electrician who knows how to stabilize the situation and protect your family. First, we slow down long enough to listen. What did you see or hear. Did anything smell like smoke. Next, we perform a careful assessment so we can pinpoint the exact cause. There is no guesswork. There are no shortcuts.
Then we explain what is happening in plain language and show you the options. You approve the plan before any work begins. Because our trucks carry common parts, many issues are fixed on the spot. When a larger repair is needed, we map out the steps and a realistic timeline so you are never left wondering. Code compliance is a must for us and so is craftsmanship. Tight connections, correct wire sizing, and proper grounding are the details that keep you safe long after we leave.
You will notice the small courtesies as well. We wear shoe covers. We respect pets and sleeping kids. We keep a clean workspace and tidy up before we go. Finally, we stand behind our work with a strong guarantee so you can relax after the repair.

What To Do Right Now (Safety First)
- If you notice smoke, visible flames, or active electrical arcing, your priority should be safety—evacuate everyone from the area immediately and call 911 for emergency assistance.
- If conditions allow and you can do so safely, switch off the main breaker to disconnect power to the affected area. This can help prevent further damage or hazards.
- Stay clear of any wet areas near electrical equipment and never touch electrical components or panels with damp or wet hands to avoid the risk of shock.

Frequently Asked Questions About Electrical Emergencies
Emergency electrical work typically includes a service call fee plus a higher hourly rate than standard appointments. As a result, minor emergency fixes may fall in the $200 to $600+ range depending on diagnosis and parts. Every situation varies, and a licensed electrician must assess the issue on site before pricing the repair.
Situations that present immediate fire, shock, or life-safety risks are emergencies. Common red flags include a burning or rubbery odor, warm or discolored outlets or switches, sparks or arcing, tingling when touching an appliance, and frequently tripping breakers. Downed power lines and signs of electric shock are also emergencies requiring immediate action.
Call right away if you notice burning smells, warm or discolored outlets, sparks or arcing, tingling from appliances, or repeated breaker trips. These are recognized warning signs of hazardous conditions and potential electrical fires.
The most common electrical emergency is a breaker that keeps tripping or a sudden partial power loss in part of the home. Signs include a breaker that will not reset, flickering lights, warm or discolored outlets, buzzing or burning smells, or one room without power. If you see smoke or sparking, call 911; if it is safe, turn off the main breaker and then call Cote’s Mechanical to dispatch a licensed electrician.
