Are flickering lights a wiring problem?
Flickering lights can indicate a wiring issue in your Roanoke home, but could also be caused by loose connections, overloaded circuits, or problems with an electrical panel. Our licensed electricians can determine the exact cause of your flickering lights and offer fast, affordable solutions to safeguard your home.
How long do typical electrical repairs take?
In many cases, electrical repairs can be completed in a few hours, depending on the complexity and severity of the problem. Ostom offers same-day electrical repairs to restore your home’s comfort and safety as quickly as possible.
Can old wiring be repaired safely?
Old wiring can be repaired if it’s still in good condition. This isn’t something that you should attempt on your own. If you have widespread wiring deterioration, replacement is likely the safest option. A licensed electrician can assess the condition of your Roanoke home’s current wiring system and explain the safest path forward.
Is it safe to delay electrical repairs if the problem seems minimal?
Even small electrical problems can get worse over time and lead to safety concerns. Flickering lights, intermittent power loss, or occasional breaker trips tend to signal a larger problem that should be addressed sooner rather than later.
What happens if my Roanoke home’s electrical wiring isn’t up to code?
Out-of-code wiring will not only increase safety risks, but it may also cause issues during inspections, renovations, or home sales. Older Roanoke homes are more likely to have systems that don’t meet current standards. Addressing code issues allows you to protect your home and avoid complications down the road.
