Our 24/7 Response: What Happens After You Call
When you call, a trained dispatcher verifies hazards, your location, and any life-safety priorities. We roll a fully stocked truck with an electrician who can diagnose and repair on the first visit. On arrival, we:
- Perform a rapid safety check of the service, panel, and key circuits
- Isolate hazards and stabilize power if safe to do so
- Troubleshoot the root cause with meters and thermal readings
- Provide up-front pricing and options before work begins
- Complete repairs in one visit whenever parts and conditions allow
- Verify operation at the panel and affected circuits, then document findings
You get clear communication the whole time, including what failed, why it happened, and how to prevent it again.
"The root cause was found, which Tyler also clearly explained, and issue was fixed—power was restored."
Breaker and Panel Failures: Fast, Safe Repairs
Old or overloaded panels can fail without warning. Symptoms include hot breakers, constant tripping, or visible scorching. Our emergency service covers:
- Main breaker replacements and service disconnect issues
- Repairing damage from overloaded or loose connections
- Replacing unsafe or outdated fuse boxes with modern panels
- Temporary power to critical circuits when full replacement must wait
If a full panel upgrade is needed, we can stabilize the system, restore essential loads, and schedule a same-week replacement. You get clear pricing and code-compliant work.
"The electricians were very well prepared, arriving with everything needed to complete the job in just one visit."
Storm Damage, Downed Lines, and Tree Limbs
Severe weather can rip service masts from homes, pull conductors, or bend meter masts. If a tree brings down your personal service lines or damages the mast, we can:
- Make the site safe and disconnect damaged equipment
- Repair or replace the mast, meter socket, and service hardware
- Coordinate inspections when required and restore power after utility release
If the utility’s lines or neighborhood transformer are involved, we help you determine who to call first and what you control on your property.
"Outstanding work... he stayed well after his shift on a Friday to get power to our new AC unit."
Flooding, Sump Pumps, and Emergency Dry-Out Support
Water and electricity are a dangerous mix. During storms or burst pipes, we prioritize:
- De-energizing unsafe wet circuits
- Restoring safe power to sump pumps and essential appliances
- Providing temporary power solutions when available to prevent damage
- Planning remediation for water-damaged receptacles, GFCIs, and wiring
We have real experience keeping pumps running overnight to protect basements and prevent costly damage.
Medical Equipment Power Restoration
If you or a loved one relies on CPAP machines, oxygen concentrators, or refrigerated meds, we prioritize your call. Our process focuses on:
- Rapid restoration to the circuits feeding essential medical devices
- Temporary power for life-safety loads while we repair the main fault
- Recommendations for dedicated circuits and backup power to reduce risk
Backup Generators and Automatic Transfer Switches
Standby generator systems keep your home running during blackouts. We install and service:
- Whole-home generator systems sized to your load
- Automatic transfer switches that restore power with little to no interruption
- Generator-ready panels and surge protection for stability
We evaluate the loads that matter to you, then configure a safe solution that starts automatically and powers your breaker box when the grid fails.
Whole-House Surge Protection During and After Outages
Storms and utility switching events can send surges through your system. Whole-home surge protection helps guard electronics, appliances, and smart devices. We:
- Install Type 1 or Type 2 surge devices at the service
- Add point-of-use protectors for sensitive equipment
- Verify grounding and bonding to improve protection
This is one of the highest ROI upgrades you can make in a storm-prone market.
Single-Visit Troubleshooting and Quality Parts
Our trucks arrive stocked for common emergency repairs so you are not left waiting. Typical same-day fixes include:
- Bad breakers, loose lugs, and burned bus connections
- Faulty GFCI or AFCI devices and nuisance trips
- Damaged receptacles, switches, or light circuits
- Water-compromised terminations and corrosion cleanup
You get a thorough inspection, quality replacement parts, and final safety checks before we leave.

Safety and Compliance in Minnesota Homes

- Service upgrades and most panel replacements require permits and inspections. We handle permitting and coordinate inspections so your restoration is safe and documented.
Our team follows local utility requirements and city processes in Hennepin County to make restoration smooth.
Utility vs. Electrician: Who Do I Call First?
- Call your utility immediately if the neighborhood is dark, you see a downed utility line in the street, or the meter spins but no power enters your home.
- Call us if your personal service mast is torn from the house, breakers trip repeatedly, or water has entered your panel.
- When in doubt, we guide you. We can often help you determine if the issue is on your side or the utility’s side within a few minutes by phone.
How to Prepare Before We Arrive
A few quick steps can speed up safe restoration:
- If safe, switch off the main breaker to stop arcing or overheating.
- Keep children and pets away from the panel and any standing water.
- Unplug sensitive electronics to avoid surge damage when power returns.
- Note what happened just before the outage or failure. Details help us find the root cause faster.
- If you rely on medical devices, gather backup batteries or relocate to a safe area while we restore essential power.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do first if my breaker keeps tripping?
Turn off the affected circuit and unplug devices. If the breaker is hot, buzzing, or will not reset, call us. Repeated tripping signals a fault that needs expert diagnosis.
Is it safe to use power after my basement floods?
No. Water can compromise outlets and panels. Do not step in water near electrical equipment. Call us to de-energize unsafe circuits and restore power safely to pumps and essentials.
Who fixes a service mast torn from my house?
The homeowner’s side, including the mast and meter socket on the structure, is typically your responsibility. We repair it, coordinate inspection, and help you get utility release for reconnection.
Do I need a permit for a panel replacement?
Yes, panel replacements and service upgrades require permits and inspections in Minnesota. We handle permitting and schedule inspections as part of the project.
Will a standby generator power my whole home automatically?
Yes, when sized correctly and paired with an automatic transfer switch. It starts and switches power with little to no interruption, then returns to utility power when service is restored.
