Electrical Troubleshooting
Minor electrical blips and annoyances are often a sign something more dangerous is happening in your electrical system. Don’t dismiss those concerns as nothing, and don’t rely on guesswork or attempt DIY fixes.
Does your home suffer from any of the following common electrical problems?
- Outlets stop working.
- Switches stop working.
- Lights flicker.
- Lights dim or give you a sort of “brown-out” effect.
- You experience an electric shock of any kind.
- Your clothes dryer requires multiple cycles to get the job done.
- Your electric bill skyrockets.
You don’t have to live with minor annoyances like those. In many cases, an expert can solve the problem without your incurring a major expense.
The quick, easy, safe, and often lowest-cost way to troubleshoot and fix those electrical issues or others is to call Premo Electric – San Diego’s top-rated electricians.

“What if the problem’s bigger than I thought?”
Sometimes homeowners are afraid to call us because they fear every electrician’s visit will cost thousands of dollars. They are afraid to spend the money and hope if they ignore the problem it will just go away.
You may luck out and find the problem is a small one, requiring only a small replacement part and an hour or so of work to resolve.

Don’t DIY!
If you just read a book and watched a video on how to fly a plane, would you try to fly the plane? Probably not.
DIY electrical work isn’t much safer. It may look easy and safe on YouTube. You might have found a nice website with a lot of how-to information on it. Still, if you do it wrong you may fry yourself or your home, or both.
It’s wise to get a licensed, experienced electrician. Even the rare skilled do-it-yourselfer might have looked into wiring issues a few times. We dig into electrical wiring every day, and have done so for many a moon. As the top-rated electricians in the area, we’ve probably helped your neighbors in your part of San Diego, and can help you, too.
