The One Outlet Nobody Else Will Come Out For

Call a big company about a single dead outlet and you will often be told it is too small a job. That is the work SoLit Electric was built on. The business grew call by call, fixing exactly the things other contractors pass on.

And the diagnosis comes before the repair. Replacing a breaker that keeps tripping without finding out why is not a repair — it is a delay. We find the cause, and we tell you what it is.

What We Fix

Dead and half-dead outlets: including the ones where the top socket works and the bottom one does not.
Breakers that keep tripping: we look for the fault rather than resetting it until it holds.
Flickering and dimming lights: often a loose connection, sometimes something more serious behind the wall.
Warm switches and discoloured outlets: a warning sign, not a cosmetic problem. Have it looked at.
GFCI outlets that will not reset and exterior outlets that have stopped working.
Light fixtures, ceiling fans, switches and dimmers installed or replaced.
New outlets and circuits added where you actually need them.

Meter socket burned through at the jaw — Burned through at the jaw, where the meter plugs in.

Melted electrical outlet behind a cover plate — A melted outlet — the damage was hidden behind the cover plate.

Circuit breaker with a burned terminal — A breaker with a burned terminal, pulled during a repair.

Real equipment from recent SoLit Electric repair calls — not stock photography.

When It Is Not A Repair Anymore Burning smells, visible smoke, sparking, scorch marks, or a panel that is hot to the touch are not diagnostic puzzles — they are emergencies. SoLit Electric answers the phone personally at any hour and will come out. Emergency and after-hours call-outs are subject to a fee.

What Customers Say

"I highly recommend SoLit Electric for providing electrical services. ... She personally helped coordinate with Entergy and a generator company to help focus on the electrical issue we were having."

Common Questions

Will you come out for one outlet?

Yes. A single dead outlet is the kind of call this company was built on.

Why not just replace the breaker?

Because a breaker that keeps tripping is reporting a fault somewhere on that circuit. Replacing it without finding the cause does not repair anything — it delays the repair.

Do you charge for the diagnosis?

Diagnostics are part of the visit. What we will not do is bill you to keep guessing: we test, we tell you what we found, and you decide what to fix.

A good share of what we are called out for turns out to be simpler than a fault: a lighting or outlet problem, or a circuit that needed to be dedicated in the first place. If a breaker is the thing that keeps tripping, start with why your breaker keeps tripping before you call, and you will know exactly what to tell us.
