Knowing when to call a professional is the first step in protecting your home or business. If you notice any of the following signs, call our emergency electrician in Perryville, MD immediately.
- Partial or total power loss. If your power goes out suddenly, it could be a sign of a larger issue with your electrical panel or service line. We can diagnose the problem and work to restore power safely.

- Hot outlet, burning smell, or visible arcing. These are all clear warnings of overheating or a wiring issue. The danger of a fire is high in these situations. Do not use the outlet and call us right away.
- Storm or water damage near electrical. Water and electricity are a dangerous combination. If a storm has damaged your meter base, electrical mast, or outdoor wiring, it's critical to call for emergency help.
