Have you ever faced a flickering light, an unexplained power outage, or heard a buzzing noise from your electrical system? If so, you know that electrical issues can be frustrating and even dangerous. Understanding and addressing these issues is crucial to maintaining a safe and functional home.

Electrical Repairs

Identifying Common Electrical Issues

Common electrical issues such as flickering lights, power outages, and buzzing noises may indicate an underlying electrical problem that requires attention. Electrical problems can range from minor inconveniences to severe safety hazards, hence, comprehending their causes and knowing how to handle them is necessary. In some cases, you may need to seek electrical repair services.

Our professional electricians can help with a wide range of common home electrical issues, such as:

Flickering lights can be caused by:

  • an overloaded circuit
  • voltage fluctuations
  • old or loose wires
  • a faulty lightbulb

These issues can lead to disruptions in your home’s electrical system and pose a serious threat to safety.

Understanding the potential causes of flickering lights can help you determine whether you need to call a professional electrician or if you can troubleshoot the issue yourself.

Power outages can occur for various reasons, including:

  • storms
  • trees
  • equipment failure
  • overloaded circuits

In some cases, you may need the assistance of a professional electrician to diagnose the cause of the outage and fix the issue.

A backup generator can also provide a reliable source of power during an outage, protecting your home from damage caused by power surges or outages.

Buzzing noises in electrical systems may indicate overloaded, frayed, or improperly grounded wires. These issues can pose a significant risk if left unaddressed, as they may lead to electrical fires or other hazards. If you hear buzzing noises in your electrical system, it is necessary to immediately reach out to a certified professional electrician and turn off the electricity until they arrive.

What Our Residential Clients Say

Kelly did two great jobs for us. They replaced the last of the old knob and tube wiring in our hallway (two stories). The work was done quickly and cleanly. Shortly after this, we contracted with Kelly to install a whole-house generator - a huge job. The entire crew - closely supervised by the owner - was knowedgeable, hard-working, and courteous. They obtained the permits, consulted us about details, worked hard, and completed the job They also cleaned the site up carefully when the installation was complete. These are consummate professionals and we recommend Kelly highly..

Sandra Malard

Kelly Electric showed up on time and was very responsive throughout the entire time their team was working at our house. All of the fixtures they installed work perfectly and they left our house as clean as it was before they began doing work. The technician who we worked with made sure to verify where we wanted our fixtures installed before he began doing work and gave us honest recommendations for everything we were considering changing in our house. I would absolutely recommend them and will use them again if a need arises.

Devin Fox

I have now used Kelly electric for several major projects (installation of whole house generator, electrical upgrade in condo renovation, and rewiring of basement lights) and have been impressed each time with their responsiveness, professionalism and quality workmanship. Their prices are very reasonable. Would not hesitate to use then again in the future for other projects.

David Lin

Kelly Electric removed our knob and tube wiring. I called on a Thursday, Sean Mullan came the next day and gave me an estimate that afternoon, and work started the following Monday. They get an A+ for responsiveness! The men who did the work were great, too. It's not an easy job but they made it as painless for us as possible.

Susan Stewart

Gareth and his team are top notch! They performed a very large, very complicated job in my home, which included removing old knob and tube wiring. They then wired a complicated kitchen with every possible appliance. They are prompt, hard workers, clean, and efficient. Gareth is easy to contact, and manages his work teams well. I would highly recommend Kelly Electric.

Denise Gotsdiner

I've used Kelly Electric a couple of times since moving to Havertown, and have been very impressed - found them to be friendly, responsive, and reasonably priced. I would definitely use them again, and recommend them to others.

Elisabeth Flynn

Fantastic response time and service! Nick came out within an hour of when I called to set up an appointment and did an outstanding job troubleshooting our problem. Thanks!

Sean McIlhargy

I recently used Kelly Electric for the addition of a new outlet to accommodate a new tank-less water heater. Sean and his team were responsive, courteous and professional. Theirs was the most competitive bid for the work, and they were in and out in an hour or so.

I would recommend them without hesitation, and will definitely use them again when the need arises.

A. McGrath

We had Kelly rewire our house and remove the old knob and tube wiring. Not an easy job in a close to 100 year old house. They made some holes in the walls and ceilings to fish the new wires (as they said they would have to do), but they patched them, protected the floors and furniture from debris, and cleaned up daily. Their price was fair and they did a professional job. We can recommend them without reservation.

John Bryan

Installed a generator at my home. Was professional, on time and did a fantastic job. It wasn't an easy job but they were courteous and made sure to leave my home free of trash and even brought up my trash cans! I would definitely use them again.

Kim Colaprete

We recently had Kelly Electric evaluate and repair an error made by a previous electrician. Mr. Kelly provided courteous and detailed answers to my questions and had our problem fixed quickly. I highly recommend Kelly Electric!

Jesse Flavin

Great experience throughout, from initial call to estimate to scheduling of the job. The guys were pleasant around the house and worked hard for the day they were here. NO hesitation in recommending Kelly Electric again!
