Electrical Repair and Emergency Service

Electrical problems rarely wait for a good time. A dead circuit or a sparking outlet can stop your day and put your home at risk. Here is how we help.

Electrical Repair

Lights that flicker, outlets that stop working and switches that feel warm all point to a problem in your wiring. Our electricians trace the cause and fix it the right way. Many repairs get done in a single visit. You get your home working again without guessing what went wrong.

Emergency Electrician

Some electrical problems can't wait until morning. A burning smell, sparks or a total loss of power can put your family in danger. A live person answers our phones 24/7, and we send help as fast as we can. If you see smoke or flames, get everyone out and call 911 first.

Electrical Panel Repair Houston Abacus Electricians

Panels, Wiring and Surge Protection

Your panel, wiring and surge protection work together to deliver power safely to every room. When one falls behind, your whole home feels it. Here is how we keep your system strong.

Electrical Panel Replacement

Your electrical panel sends power to every circuit in your home. Older panels often can't keep up with today's AC systems, appliances and EV chargers. If your breakers trip often or your panel feels warm, it may be time for an upgrade. Learn more about our electrical panel replacement service.

Home Rewiring

Wiring wears out with age, and some older Houston homes still have outdated wire types. Worn wiring can overheat and raise your fire risk. We inspect your wiring and replace what's unsafe with care for your walls and floors. See our page on home rewiring.

Whole-Home Surge Protection

Houston thunderstorms bring lightning and sudden power surges. One strong surge can damage your AC, appliances and electronics in seconds. A whole-home surge protector stops that extra voltage at your panel. Visit our page on whole-home surge protection.

Electrical Safety

A safe home starts with wiring, outlets and alarms that work the way they should. Small hazards can hide for years before they cause harm. Here is how we help protect your family.

Electrical Safety and Code Inspection

An inspection shows you the true condition of your electrical system. It helps when you buy a home, own an older house or plan a big upgrade. We check your panel, wiring and outlets and explain what we find in plain words. Learn more about our electrical safety and code inspection.

GFCI Outlet Installation

GFCI outlets cut power in a split second when they sense a problem. That protects you from shock near water in kitchens, bathrooms, garages and outdoor areas. We install new GFCI outlets and replace ones that no longer reset. See our page on GFCI outlet installation.

Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detectors

Working alarms give your family time to get out when something goes wrong. Carbon monoxide has no smell, so a detector is your only warning. We install, replace and connect smoke and CO detectors throughout your home. Visit our page on smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Lighting, Ceiling Fans and Fixtures

Good lighting and airflow make your home safer and more comfortable. The right setup also helps you save energy in Houston's long, hot summers. Here is how we help.

Lighting Installation

Dark hallways, dim kitchens and unlit walkways make your home harder to live in. We install indoor, outdoor and LED lighting that fits each space. Outdoor lights also help you see your yard and doors after dark. Learn more about our lighting installation service.

Smart Home Lighting

Smart lighting lets you control your lights from your phone or with your voice. You can set schedules, dim rooms and turn lights on before you get home. We install smart switches and dimmers and connect them to your system. See our page on smart home lighting.

Ceiling Fan and Fixture Installation

A ceiling fan keeps air moving and helps your AC feel stronger. Heavy fans and fixtures need the right support box and wiring to hang safely. We install new fans and fixtures and replace old ones that wobble or buzz. Visit our page on ceiling fan and fixture installation.

Backup Power and EV Charging

Houston's hurricane season can leave homes without power for days. More families also charge an electric car at home every night. Here is how we keep your power ready.

Standby Generator Installation

A standby generator turns on by itself when the power goes out. It keeps your AC, refrigerator and medical equipment running through storms and long outages. We size your generator, install it and connect it safely to your panel. Learn more about our standby generator installation.

Generator Maintenance

A generator that sits unused for months may not start when you need it. Regular maintenance checks the battery, oil and parts so it's ready before storm season. We service your generator and fix small problems before they turn into failures. See our page on generator maintenance.

EV Charger Installation

A home charger fills your electric car's battery much faster than a standard outlet. Most chargers need a dedicated circuit, and some homes need a panel upgrade first. We check your system and install your charger safely in your garage or driveway. Visit our page on EV charger installation.

Protection Plans

Your electrical system works every hour of every day. Steady care and strong coverage help it last longer and cost you less over time. Here is how we protect your investment.

VIP Membership

Busy schedules make yearly electrical checkups easy to forget. Our VIP Membership puts your home's care on a regular schedule. You get a team that knows your system and catches problems early. Learn more about our VIP Membership.

Electrical Equipment Lifetime Warranty

Select electrical equipment we install can be covered for life on parts and labor. Coverage stays in place as long as your equipment gets yearly maintenance from a licensed electrician. Ask us which equipment qualifies for your home. See the details of our electrical equipment lifetime warranty.

Warning Signs You Need an Electrician

Electrical problems often send small warnings before they turn into big ones. If you notice any of these, call us before the problem gets worse:

  • Breakers that keep tripping: A circuit may be overloaded or have a fault.

  • Flickering or dimming lights: Loose wiring or a failing connection could be the cause.

  • Warm or buzzing outlets and switches: Heat and noise mean something isn't connected right.

  • A burning smell: Wiring may be overheating behind your walls.

  • An old panel in an older home: Many older panels can't handle the power homes use today.

If you smell burning or see smoke, get everyone out and call 911 first. Then call us to find and fix the cause.

Repair or Replace Your Panel? How We Help You Decide

When your panel acts up, you want to know whether to repair it or replace it. Some homeowners get pushed into upgrades they don't need. We do it differently. Before we recommend anything, we check:

  • Age: how long your panel has been powering your home

  • Condition: signs of rust, heat damage or worn breakers

  • Capacity: whether it can handle today's loads, like a new AC, an EV charger or a generator

  • Safety and code: whether it meets current electrical code and protects your family

Then we explain both options side by side, in plain words. If a repair will keep your home safe for years, we say so. You make the final call.
