What Customers Say About Our Electricians

“The three-man crew came out early, did a great job, and left everything neat and tidy. They explained what they were doing to increase my home from 100 amp to 200 amp. Communication with their scheduling went very well.”

Jimmy Wilemon

Albuquerque homeowner · panel upgrade

“We renovated a 1950s Santa Fe adobe with outdated cloth wiring and aluminum connections. Add On Electric handled the entire rewiring and copper pigtailing cleanly without gouging our historic plaster.”

Elena Trujillo

Santa Fe resident · remodel

“Installed dual Level 2 EV charging stations for our commercial retail shop in Rio Rancho. Finished ahead of schedule, passed municipal inspection on the first pass, and billed exactly to the initial quote.”

Dealing with tripping breakers or flickering lights?

Electrical Problems Rarely Go Away on Their Own

A breaker that keeps tripping or a light that flickers is usually a symptom of something else, such as a loose connection, a failing device, or an overloaded circuit.

Resetting the breaker or swapping a bulb might buy some time, but the underlying problem keeps getting worse until it fails, often at an inconvenient moment.

How we handle it

We Find the Real Cause Before We Fix Anything

Our electricians test and trace the problem until we know exactly what is causing it. Then we explain what we found and what it will cost to fix, before we start.

Whether it is a single outlet or a circuit that has been acting up for years, we repair it to code and make sure it works before we leave.

Wondering how it works?

Questions About Electrical Repairs & Troubleshooting

Why does my breaker keep tripping?

Common causes include an overloaded circuit, a short, a ground fault, or a breaker that is wearing out. We test the circuit to find the actual cause.

Are flickering lights dangerous?

Sometimes. It can be a loose bulb, but it can also point to a loose connection or a service problem. If it happens often or affects several rooms, have it checked.

What should I do if an outlet or switch feels warm?

Stop using it and turn off the breaker if you can do so safely, then call us. Heat at an outlet or switch usually means a loose or failing connection.
