When to call for emergency electrical service

Some electrical problems can wait until morning. Others can't. Call 318-688-2788 right now if you smell hot plastic or burning insulation, see scorch marks or smoke around an outlet or panel, hear sizzling or buzzing inside the wall, have a breaker that won't reset, or have lost power to half the house while the other half still works — that last one usually means a lost neutral, and lost-neutral situations destroy electronics fast. Do not flip breakers on and off trying to "fix" it; cut the main and call us.

We answer 24/7 and most after-hours calls in Shreveport, Bossier City, Haughton, Benton, and Stonewall are on-site within 60–90 minutes. There are no overtime or weekend fees — the rate at 2 a.m. on a Sunday is the same as 10 a.m. on a Tuesday. We arrive with stocked trucks, restore safe power as quickly as we can, and document everything you'll need for an insurance claim if storm damage, a lightning strike, or a fire is involved.

Common emergency calls during Louisiana storm season include lightning-fried panels and surge-damaged HVAC, fallen-tree service drops pulled off the house, water-intrusion into outlets and meter bases, and generator-transfer-switch failures during extended outages. We can also coordinate with SWEPCO when the issue is on the utility side rather than yours.

Emergency Electrician FAQ

›What counts as an electrical emergency?

Burning smells or smoke around outlets or panels, sparking or arcing, a breaker that won't reset, a panel that's warm to the touch, half the house losing power (lost neutral), water intrusion into any electrical device, or downed service lines. Stop using the circuit and call us right now.

›Do you charge overtime or after-hours fees?

No — the rate at 2 a.m. on a Sunday is the same as 10 a.m. on a Tuesday. No overtime, no weekend, no holiday surcharges.

›How fast can you get here?

Most after-hours calls in Shreveport, Bossier City, Haughton, Benton, and Stonewall are on-site within 60–90 minutes. Storm events can be longer — call anyway and we'll give you an honest ETA.

›Can you document damage for my insurance claim?

Yes. We photograph damaged equipment, provide an itemized invoice, and include a written cause-of-loss statement when the damage is storm, lightning, or surge related.
