Our Emergency Electrical Services

Comprehensive solutions for all your electrical emergency needs.

Power Outages

Lost power in part or all of your home? We'll diagnose the cause - whether it's a tripped breaker, faulty panel, or line issue - and restore power quickly.

Electrical Panel Issues

Breakers that keep tripping, burning smells, buzzing sounds, or hot panels are serious. We repair or replace faulty panels to keep your home safe.

Sparking Outlets or Switches

Sparks when plugging in devices or flipping switches indicate dangerous wiring issues. We'll fix it before it becomes a fire hazard.

Burning Smell or Smoke

If you smell burning plastic or see smoke from outlets, switches, or your panel - call us immediately. This is a fire hazard that requires urgent attention.

Emergency Rewiring

Damaged wiring from storms, pests, or age can create shock and fire risks. We'll replace faulty wiring to restore safety and code compliance.

Storm Damage Repairs

Lightning strikes and severe weather can damage your electrical system. We'll assess the damage and make emergency repairs to get you back up and running.

Signs You Need Emergency Electrician

Don't ignore these warning signs — early detection can save you money and prevent bigger problems.

Burning Smell from Outlets or Panel

A burning plastic or electrical smell indicates overheating wires - a serious fire hazard. Turn off power to that area and call us immediately. This is one of the most dangerous warning signs because it means wiring or components are getting hot enough to melt insulation, which can quickly lead to an electrical fire.

Sparks or Arcing

Visible sparks when plugging in devices or turning on switches mean dangerous electrical arcing. This can start fires and must be fixed ASAP. Arcing occurs when electricity jumps across a gap, generating intense heat. It's often caused by loose connections, damaged wiring, or faulty outlets.

Breakers That Keep Tripping

Breakers that trip repeatedly indicate overloaded circuits or faulty wiring. Resetting them repeatedly is dangerous - call an electrician. While breakers are designed to trip to protect you, constant tripping means something is wrong and needs professional diagnosis.

Power Outage in Part of Home

If some rooms have power but others don't (and it's not a tripped breaker), you likely have a wiring or panel issue that needs immediate attention. This could indicate a neutral wire problem, a damaged circuit, or panel issues that can create shock hazards.

Hot Outlets or Switches

Outlets or switches that are warm or hot to the touch indicate dangerous wiring problems. Stop using them and call us right away. Heat means resistance in the wiring, which can melt insulation and start fires. This often happens with loose connections or undersized wiring.

Buzzing or Sizzling Sounds

Electrical systems should be silent. Buzzing, sizzling, or crackling sounds from your panel or outlets mean something is wrong - often seriously wrong. These sounds typically indicate loose connections, arcing, or components that are failing and creating dangerous conditions.

Noticing any of these issues? Don't wait until it becomes an emergency.

Emergency Electrician FAQs

How quickly can you respond to an electrical emergency?

We aim for 30-45 minute response times across the DFW metroplex. When you call, we'll dispatch the nearest available licensed electrician to your location immediately. For true emergencies (fire hazards, downed power lines, severe electrical issues), we prioritize your call and get there as fast as safely possible. We're available 24/7 including nights, weekends, and holidays.

What qualifies as an electrical emergency?

Call us immediately if you're experiencing: burning smells from outlets or your electrical panel, visible sparks or arcing, smoke from electrical components, power outages affecting part or all of your home, hot or discolored outlets, breakers that won't reset or keep tripping, buzzing or sizzling sounds from your panel, exposed wires, or storm damage to your electrical system. When in doubt, it's always better to be safe - call us and we'll assess the situation.

Do you charge extra for after-hours emergency service?

Yes, there is typically an after-hours surcharge for emergency calls outside of normal business hours (nights, weekends, and holidays). However, we believe in transparent pricing - we'll tell you the exact cost over the phone before dispatching a technician, and we provide upfront quotes before starting any work. Many customers find that the peace of mind and safety of immediate service is well worth it. For Cool Club members, we waive overtime charges.

What should I do while waiting for your electrician to arrive?

If you're experiencing an electrical emergency: Turn off power to the affected area at the breaker box if it's safe to do so. Don't touch any sparking outlets, exposed wires, or electrical panels. Evacuate the area if you smell burning or see smoke. If there's a fire, call 911 immediately. Unplug devices from affected outlets. Keep children and pets away from the problem area. Don't attempt any DIY repairs - electricity is extremely dangerous. Stay calm and our licensed electrician will be there soon to handle everything safely.

Are your emergency electricians licensed and insured?

Absolutely. All of our electricians are fully licensed by the State of Texas (license TECL23192), insured, and background-checked. We take safety seriously - both yours and ours. Our technicians undergo continuous training on the latest electrical codes and safety procedures. When you hire LEX, you're hiring professionals who will do the job right and safely the first time.

Can you fix most electrical emergencies in one visit?

Yes, in most cases. Our service vehicles are fully stocked with a wide range of electrical parts, circuit breakers, wiring, outlets, switches, and tools. This means we can diagnose and repair most common electrical emergencies on the first visit without needing to make a parts run. For larger jobs like full panel replacements or extensive rewiring, we may need to schedule a follow-up visit, but we'll make your home safe and restore power on the emergency call whenever possible.
