What Counts as an Electrical Emergency?

An electrical emergency is any situation where there's an immediate risk to your safety, family, or home. If you're unsure whether what you're dealing with qualifies, it's always safer to call us and ask about what you’re seeing.

Common electrical emergencies that Waukesha-area property owners run into include:

Complete power outages that affect only your home, not the whole neighborhood
Sparking outlets or switches, as well as outlets that are warm or discolored to the touch
A burning smell coming from an outlet, switch, appliance, or your electrical panel
A tripped main breaker that won't reset, or a panel that keeps shutting down
Flickering or dimming lights throughout the house, especially when they happen suddenly
Buzzing, crackling, or popping sounds coming from outlets, switches, or the panel
Exposed or damaged wiring, including wiring that’s been chewed by pests or exposed after storm damage
Downed power lines on your property, especially after high winds or ice storms common to Southeastern Wisconsin
A shock or tingling sensation when touching an appliance, switch, or faucet

If you’re dealing with any of the above, shut off power to the affected area (if it's safe to do so), avoid the area otherwise, and call us at (262) 558-5611 right away.

Emergency Electrical FAQs

What Should I Do While I'm Waiting for the Electrician to Arrive?

If it's safe to reach your electrical panel, shut off the breaker for the affected circuit or area. If you smell burning, see sparks, or aren't sure it's safe to approach the panel, stay away from the area entirely. Never touch a downed power line; treat it as live and keep everyone, including pets, at a safe distance until crews arrive.

Is It Safe to Stay in My House During a Power Outage?

Usually, yes. However, it depends on the cause of the outage. If you’re experiencing a weather-related outage affecting the whole block, you’re usually fine to remain inside. An outage that’s isolated to just your home, especially one paired with burning smells, sparking, or a breaker that won't reset, is a sign of a problem inside your electrical system that should be evaluated right away.

How Fast Can Roman Home Services Get to My Home for an Emergency?

Emergency calls are prioritized ahead of routine scheduling, and our large local fleet is positioned throughout Southeastern Wisconsin, including Waukesha, to respond quickly. Call our emergency line, and we'll get a licensed electrician on the way as fast as possible.

Will I Be Charged Extra for a Nighttime or Weekend Emergency Call?

You'll always get a clear, upfront price before work begins, so you'll know exactly what to expect. We believe emergencies shouldn't come with surprise fees just because of when they happen.

What Causes Sudden Power Outages or Flickering Lights in Older Waukesha Homes?

Many homes throughout Waukesha and Southeastern Wisconsin were built decades ago and may still have original wiring, aging panels, or components that have simply reached the end of their service life. As homes add more appliances and electronics over the years, older systems can struggle to keep up, leading to tripped breakers, flickering lights, or full outages. A licensed electrician from Roman Home Services can pinpoint whether the cause is inside your home or related to an aging panel that needs an upgrade.
