Electrical Panel Repairs

Like most things in your home, an electrical panel can break and cause problems. Your panel could be old and ready to retire, or maybe it’s not meant to keep up with your home’s modern electrical needs and requires an upgrade. 

One of the most common electrical issues homeowners experience is the electrical panel overheating and burning out. This can cause serious electrical issues in your home and, in some cases, electrical fires.

Your panel can burn out for several reasons. Contact Morris-Jenkins and have a technician come out and take a look. We specialize in electrical panel repair, so we’ll get to the root of the problem to keep your family safe and ensure your electrical system works properly. Electrical work can be dangerous, so calling an expert is a good idea.
