24/7 Emergency Electrician services in Altadena

Electrical emergencies don't wait for business hours. Our 24 hour electrician service covers Altadena, Pasadena and La Canada Flintridge at night, on weekends and on holidays. Tell us what you're seeing: no power in the house, a breaker that keeps tripping, flickering lights or a hot panel. We'll tell you what to shut off and head your way.

Breaker keeps tripping

Repeated trips point to an overload, a short or a ground fault. We find which one, fix the cause and replace the breaker only if it has actually failed.

Burning smell and electrical fire repair

If you smell hot plastic or see smoke, shut off the main and call. Once the fire department has cleared the building, we repair burned wiring, devices and panels.

Flickering lights and electrical shorts

Whole-house flicker can signal a loose service neutral, which is a real hazard. We test at the panel and coordinate with the utility when the fault is on their side.

After-hours and urgent electrical repair

Storm damage, water in a panel, a dead circuit feeding medical equipment. Urgent electrician calls in Altadena go to the front of the line.

Power outage electrician

No power in the house while the neighbors' lights are on? We trace the fault from the meter and main breaker through to the dead circuits and restore power safely.

Sparking outlet repair

A sparking, buzzing or scorched outlet means a loose or failing connection. We make it safe, replace the device and check the rest of the circuit for heat damage.

Call right away if you notice

  • A burning or fishy smell near an outlet, switch or the breaker panel
  • Outlets or switch plates that are warm, discolored or buzzing
  • Lights dimming or flickering across several rooms at once
  • A breaker that trips again the moment you reset it
  • A tingle or shock when you touch an appliance or faucet
  • Half the house without power, or power lost after a storm

Common questions about emergency electrician in Altadena

Is a tripping breaker really an emergency?

One trip after running a space heater and a hair dryer together is an overload, not an emergency. A breaker that trips instantly, feels hot or smells burnt should be left off until an electrician checks it. See our electrical repair service for non-urgent troubleshooting.

What should I do while I wait?

If you see smoke or flames, leave and call 911. Otherwise switch off the affected breaker, or the main breaker if you are not sure which one, unplug what you can and keep clear of any wet areas near wiring.

Do you charge more at night or on weekends?

After-hours calls carry a higher rate than a scheduled daytime visit. We tell you the rate on the phone and give you a firm price on site before any work begins.

The whole street is dark. Should I still call?

If your neighbors in Altadena are out too, it is almost certainly a utility outage and your utility is the right call. If only your property is out, or power came back to the street but not to you, call us.

What customers say

Half the house went dark at 9 pm and an outlet smelled hot. They talked me through shutting off the breaker and had someone at the door that night. He fixed a burned connection and checked the rest of the circuit.

After a surge took out our garage door opener and a TV, they installed a whole house protector at the panel. Quick job, clear price, no upsell.

Grace N.Surge protection

I called about one dead bathroom outlet. The electrician found a failed GFCI upstream, replaced it, tested every outlet on the circuit and was gone in under an hour.
