Common Light Switch Problems We Fix
Your light switch may seem small, but when it fails, it can be a safety risk. Call us if you notice:
- Flickering lights: Often caused by a loose connection or wiring fault.
- Buzzing or humming dimmers: Usually a mismatch between dimmer and bulb type.
- Warm or hot switches: Overloaded or failing switches can overheat.
- Sparks or burnt smells: Signs of arcing or internal damage.
- Stuck or loose toggles: Mechanical wear that needs replacement.
- Breaker trips: Indicates a wiring or load problem.
If you see any of these, schedule a quick inspection. Installing electrical switches properly prevents larger hazards later.
