Electricity impacts every moment of your daily life, from when you turn on the kettle in the morning to when you send your last email at work. Your electrical infrastructure is hidden beneath your floors and behind your walls, so it’s easy to ignore until there’s a problem. Still, it’s subject to wear and malfunction, like any other part of your home.
When your power is disrupted, it’s often catastrophic, so every household needs a reliable electrical company for prompt, expert service.
Let Willard Cooling, Heating, Plumbing, & Electrical keep your house safe and your electrical system running.

Common Causes for Electrical Breakdowns
Your electrical system relies on a complex network of panels, switches, wiring, and boxes, all of which are prone to the effects of surges, wear, and tear. Every time you repair part of that system, faults become increasingly likely, but time alone can do plenty of damage.
Your system breaks down when insulation ages and equipment fails. Loose connections account for over 30% of electrical failures, but even insects and other pests can have an effect, as can worn-out plugs and malfunctioning appliances.
Don’t let an electrical breakdown ruin your day. Call (469) 840-4743 or contact us online and let us inspect and repair your system.

Why DIY Electrical Work Is No Solution
It’s tempting to try to save a few cents by taking the DIY route, but the results could end in disaster. Electricity is a life-threatening hazard that leads to 1,000 deaths per year in the U.S. Fires cause 15,200 injuries annually, but even if you escape unharmed, your appliances and computer technology might not.
Surges can destroy expensive components and motherboards. In Texas, DIY electrical work is illegal without a permit and could nullify your homeowners insurance coverage. Relying on a professional is safer and cheaper in the long run.
What To Do When You Need an Electrical Repair
The first and most important response to an electrical breakdown is to turn off the offending fixture or appliance. Attempting to run a faulty system could lead to fire or electrocution. You can do some simple troubleshooting by checking if your circuit breaker has tripped and whether your neighbors are affected by the same breakdown.
If you notice the former, it’s best to call Willard Cooling, Heating, Plumbing, & Electrical immediately. Turning on a tripped breaker could lead to injury or worsen a problem caused by overloading.

Preventative Maintenance
Preventative maintenance can preempt malfunctions and assure you of a safer, more reliable system. Your home’s electrical requires regular inspections and surveys to address visible burning, arcing, and loose connections.
We’ll also assess your wiring and determine whether any fixtures need replacement. Experts recommend two professional inspections per year.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes short circuits?
Short circuits happen when the electrical current from a “hot” wire makes contact with a grounded conductor. As the current flows through the conductor, it can damage appliances, cause electric shocks, or ignite a fire.
Can I replace a regular switch with a dimmer switch?
Yes, this is a fairly straightforward task that an electrician can quickly perform.
Is it okay to double-tap an electrical panel?
Under no circumstances should an electrical panel be double-tapped. It’s a significant fire hazard and creates a considerable electric shock or electrocution risk. If you have a panel that was double-tapped, it’s a problem that you should hire a licensed and insured electrician to repair and correct it without delay properly.
