When to Call an Emergency Electrician
Call 24/7
Some electrical problems wait for Monday. These don't. If you're seeing any of the following, call now and we'll talk you through it while a licensed electrician heads your way.
Call immediately for:
Burning smell, scorched outlets or a panel that's hot to the touch
A breaker that trips instantly every time you reset it
Partial power: dead rooms, or lights dimming and flickering hard
Water contact with wiring, panels or outlets
No power when your neighbours still have theirs
If something is actively sparking or smoking, get everyone out and call 911 first. Then call us at +1 (519) 469-9797, any hour.

Not an Emergency? Still Worth a Call
Troubleshooting
Flickering lights, warm dimmer switches, outlets that stopped working, breakers that trip weekly: these are the early chapters of the problems that become emergencies. A troubleshooting visit finds the cause while it's still a small fix.
Common faults we trace:
Dead outlets and switches, often a loose connection upstream
Nuisance breaker trips and overloaded circuits
Flickering or dimming tied to loose or failing connections
Aluminum wiring connections that need attention in older homes
Book a troubleshooting visit and we'll diagnose it properly, quote the fix upfront, and correct any ESA defects we find. Request a quote and we'll get back to you within one business day.

They installed a whole home generator for us. Top notch job! Everything went tickity boo. A lot of work involved but the trades were all very professional and explained the job to us as we went along. Other contractors wouldn’t even return our calls. Highly recommend! Local too!

I had them come help me with issues when I had my Lyric Thermostat. On time (early), pet friendly (did not mind my hyper chocolate lab) and price range very reasonable. I would highly recommend Charged Electric in the future.
