Electrical Repairs

When something electrical stops working, you want a real electrician - not guesswork. CR Electric troubleshoots and repairs the full range of residential and commercial electrical problems: dead outlets and switches, breakers that won't reset, half a room with no power, flickering or dimming lights, buzzing fixtures, and burning smells. We find the root cause, not just the symptom.

With over 25 years of experience, our team arrives equipped to diagnose and, in most cases, fix the issue in a single visit. We explain what's wrong in plain language, give you up-front pricing, and leave the work safe and to code.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my breaker keep tripping?

A breaker trips to protect you - it's usually an overloaded circuit, a short circuit, or a ground fault. If resetting it once fixes the problem it may have been a momentary overload; if it trips repeatedly, stop resetting it and call us. Repeated tripping points to a fault that needs to be located and repaired.

Do you offer emergency electrical repair?

Yes. Both our Harahan and Covington locations offer 24-hour emergency service for hazards like burning smells, sparking, exposed wiring, or a total loss of power. Call us any time.

How fast can you come out?

For urgent issues we prioritize same-day and emergency visits across the metro and Northshore. Call the location nearest you and we'll get a technician to you as quickly as possible.

Can you fix work another electrician did wrong?

Absolutely. We regularly correct improper wiring, failed inspections, and code violations left by others. We'll assess what's there and bring it up to a safe, compliant standard.
