Common questions
Answers about
emergency service.
01What should I do if I smell burning?+
If safe to do so, turn off the affected circuit or main power, keep people away, and call. If there is smoke, fire, arcing, or immediate danger, leave the area and call 911.
02Is emergency troubleshooting a free estimate?+
No. Emergency response, outages, testing, and fault-location are paid diagnostic services because the cause and required time are unknown before work begins.
03Is same-day service always available?+
Availability depends on the current schedule, location, and urgency. Call 516-623-5160 for the fastest confirmation.
