How the job runs

  1. 1

    Call

    Call 603-707-4293 and describe what is happening — we triage over the phone and tell you what to shut off.

  2. 2

    Make safe

    First priority on arrival is isolating the hazard so nothing gets worse.

  3. 3

    Diagnose

    We find the actual fault rather than resetting a breaker and leaving.

  4. 4

    Repair or stabilize

    Permanent repair where possible, or a safe temporary fix when the utility or an inspection has to happen first.

What it costs

Emergency calls are billed as a service call plus materials, at an after-hours rate outside Monday–Friday 7am–5pm. We tell you the rate on the phone before we roll.

Emergency Service questions

Do you offer emergency electrical service?
Yes. Genuine emergencies get answered after hours across Franklin and the surrounding Lakes Region. Call 603-707-4293 and we will tell you honestly how fast we can get there.
What counts as an electrical emergency?
Burning smells, smoke, sparking or scorched outlets, a hot or buzzing panel, water in the panel, storm damage to the service entrance, and total or partial power loss that is not a utility outage. When in doubt, shut the circuit off and call.
What should I do while I wait?
If it is safe to reach the panel, shut off the affected circuit or the main. Do not keep resetting a breaker that trips again, do not touch anything scorched or wet, and get people away from the area.
Is the power outage my problem or the utility's?
If the whole street is dark, it is the utility. If only your house is out, or half of it is, the fault is usually on your side of the meter and we can help.
