What the work covers

  • Sparking, buzzing, scorched or warm-to-the-touch outlets
  • Burning plastic smell behind a wall, switch or panel
  • Storm, wind and ice damage to the service mast or weatherhead
  • Flickering or dimming lights across the whole house
  • Water intrusion into a panel, meter base or junction box
  • Failed well pump, boiler or heat-tape circuits in a cold snap

What changes region to region

Southcentral

Southcentral homes swing between heavy summer use and deep winter loads, and panels sized in the 1970s and 80s are the ones that give up first.

Interior

Interior cold is unforgiving on anything electrical that was installed casually. Heat tape circuits, block heater outlets and boiler controls have to be right before the first hard freeze.

Southwest

Out here power often comes from a village system or a local generator, and the wiring inside has to be tolerant of voltage that is not always textbook.

Arctic & Northwest

Above the Arctic Circle everything is about keeping heat and water on. Critical circuits get protected first, and the rest gets planned around the weather window.

Southeast

Constant rain and salt air in Southeast make water intrusion the number one cause of failed exterior devices and corroded panel connections.

How emergency electrician works with us

  1. You call, a person answersTell us what is happening in Alaska - what stopped, what you smelled, what you heard, what you already tried. If there is anything unsafe we walk you through shutting it down before we hang up.
  2. We give you an arrival windowNot a whole day. A window, with a call ahead so you are not sitting waiting. For Alaska addresses off the road system we book travel and confirm the date.
  3. Diagnosis before pricingWe find the actual fault or scope out the install properly. You get shown what we found, in plain language, with photos if it is somewhere you cannot easily see.
  4. A flat price, agreed before work startsOne number for the job. If something behind the wall changes the picture, we stop and re-quote rather than running up an invoice.
  5. The work gets done and testedCircuits tested, devices verified, panel labelled, site cleaned. We show you the result and make sure it does what you expected.

Emergency Electrician - common questions

How fast can an emergency electrician get to me in your town?

Call (888) 633-7804 and we dispatch the closest available crew to your town. Road-system addresses usually see a truck the same day, often within a few hours. For off-road communities we book the next scheduled flight or barge and give you a firm arrival window plus safe-shutdown steps to follow in the meantime.

Do you charge extra at night or on weekends in your town?

You get the price before anyone picks up a tool. We quote the repair flat, so a 2am call in your town is priced the same way a Tuesday afternoon call is priced - by the job, not by how nervous the clock makes you.

My breaker keeps tripping. Can I just keep resetting it?

No. A breaker that trips repeatedly is doing its job, and it is telling you there is an overload, a short or a ground fault on that circuit. Resetting it again and again defeats the protection. Shut that circuit off and call (888) 633-7804.

What should I do if I smell burning near an outlet?

Kill power to that circuit at the panel if you can reach it safely, unplug anything on it, leave the area ventilated and call (888) 633-7804 straight away. Do not open the device or probe it with a screwdriver.

Do you handle power problems in older your town homes and cabins?

Yes. A lot of our emergency work in your town is on older wiring, dry cabins, additions built in stages, and panels that were maxed out years ago. We trace what is actually there rather than assuming the last person labelled it correctly.
