Electrical Troubleshooting Services in Los Angeles County

When your lights flicker, breakers trip, or outlets stop working, it’s easy to assume it’s a small issue — but hidden electrical problems can lead to serious hazards if ignored.

At 911 Construction & Electric Inc., we specialize in residential electrical troubleshooting throughout Los Angeles County. Our licensed electricians use advanced diagnostic tools to pinpoint issues fast — ensuring your home is safe, reliable, and up to code.

What Is Electrical Troubleshooting?

Electrical troubleshooting is the process of diagnosing faults in your home’s wiring, outlets, circuits, or main panel. These issues often hide behind walls and can worsen over time if not handled by a licensed electrician.

Our technicians identify:

• Short circuits and loose connections

• Overloaded or faulty circuits

• Grounding and bonding issues

• Hidden wire damage from pests or renovations

• Breaker, switch, or outlet malfunctions

We combine experience, infrared imaging, and circuit testing to locate the root cause — not just the symptom.

Common Electrical Problems We Fix

Los Angeles homeowners commonly experience:

• Flickering or dimming lights

• Burning smells from outlets or switches

• Tripped breakers or melted wires

• Power surges damaging electronics

• Dead outlets or warm receptacles

• Buzzing panels or popping noises

Every one of these is a sign of electrical instability, which can lead to fires or appliance damage.

Why You Shouldn’t DIY Electrical Repairs

DIY repairs might seem cheaper upfront, but improper fixes can void insurance coverage and cause severe safety risks. In California, all electrical work must be performed by a C-10 licensed contractor for compliance with the California Electrical Code.

Our electricians perform every inspection and repair according to NEC and Title 24 standards.
