Unexpected electrical issues can throw your entire home into disarray and pose serious safety risks. Flickering lights, sparking outlets, or sudden power loss aren’t just inconvenient—they could indicate a dangerous problem. That’s why R.S. Andrews offers around-the-clock emergency electrical services throughout Atlanta and the surrounding areas.

Our licensed electricians respond quickly, fully equipped to handle urgent repairs and restore safety to your home. No matter the hour, you can count on our team to deliver fast, dependable service when you need it most.

What Counts as an Electrical Emergency?

Not every electrical issue can wait until morning. Some problems require immediate professional attention to protect your home and loved ones. If you’re unsure whether your situation is urgent, here are signs it’s time to call R.S. Andrews right away:

  • Burning smells or smoke: If you detect a burning odor near outlets or your panel, shut off power and call us immediately. This can signal overheating wires or impending fire risk.

  • Sparking outlets or appliances: Frequent sparking when plugging in devices may mean damaged circuits or unsafe wiring conditions. These issues need urgent repair to prevent electrical shock or fire.

  • Power outages isolated to your home: If your neighbors still have power, your electrical system may be compromised. We’ll diagnose the issue and restore safe, reliable electricity.

  • Tripping breakers that won’t reset: A persistent breaker trip could mean there’s a short circuit or overloaded line that needs immediate attention to avoid further damage.

  • Buzzing sounds from your panel or outlets: Strange noises can indicate loose wiring or internal component failure. These situations should never be ignored.

  • Water-damaged electrical components: After flooding or major leaks, your electrical system must be inspected to ensure it’s safe to operate.

Schedule today! We’re ready to deliver expert service and a smile to your door.

Our Emergency Electrical Services

Electrical problems can strike at any time, and fast action is critical to protect your home and your family. At R.S. Andrews, we offer a full range of emergency services to tackle everything from sudden outages to dangerous electrical faults. Our licensed electricians arrive fully equipped to assess and resolve the situation safely and efficiently.

Power Outage Diagnostics

If your home loses power unexpectedly, we’ll inspect your electrical system to determine the cause. We check for issues like blown circuits, damaged panels, or utility disruptions. Once diagnosed, we’ll get to work restoring safe and steady power to your home.

Electrical Panel Failures

A failing panel can pose serious safety hazards. Our team will examine your service panel for signs of overload, burn marks, or loose connections. If repair isn’t possible, we’ll provide options for a safe replacement.

Burning Smells or Scorch Marks

If you detect burning odors near outlets or appliances, shut off power and call us immediately. We’ll locate the source, which could be faulty wiring, overloaded circuits, or damaged fixtures. Prompt repairs can prevent serious fire hazards.

Flickering or Sparking Fixtures

Lights that flicker or outlets that spark can signal deeper problems in your wiring or connections. We’ll pinpoint the issue and eliminate the risk with safe, permanent repairs. Our goal is to restore stability and eliminate any electrical dangers.

Tripped Breakers That Won’t Reset

If your breaker trips and won’t stay on, it’s more than just an inconvenience. Our electricians will identify the cause—such as circuit overload, a short, or equipment malfunction—and correct it quickly. We’ll also advise on any long-term fixes that may prevent future disruptions.

My 87 year old mom’s 23 year old AC went out on a 95 degree day. I called RS Andrews at 7 AM. Repairman was onsite by lunchtime. The system was beyond repair. Sales rep was onsite before 5 PM. New Lenox system purchased by 6 PM. Installers and electrician onsite the next morning and project complete before 1 PM. Just WOW! Thanks RS Andrews.

First time using RS Andrews and Pau Sum was absolutely wonderful! He was extremely informative, sent pictures and videos of his work, and tested everything before leaving to make sure it was working properly with no leaks. I will be using them much more in the future!

David Stitt and his team did a great job today figuring out what was going on in our home with some complicated plumbing issues. Many other plumbers could not figure it out. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Thanks!

Upon coming home from a short trip on a Sunday we discovered that our AC was down. RS Andrews was able to send out a technician by mid-day Monday (during a heat wave). Anthony French was able to troubleshoot the problem and make the repair onsite. He was very pleasant, efficient & professional, and answered my many questions. He took the necessary time to help me understand the repair proposed and costs involved. Excellent job!

RS Andrews keeps my home systems working...waking up and finding a large pool of water on your kitchen floor can be frustrating! However, I called RS Andrews and they had an opening at that time...James Mays arrived 45 mins later replaced a faulty faucet and within the hour everything was back up and running smoothly! Thank you RSAndrews/Mr. Mays!

Excellent service from technician Waqas. Punctual, courteous, knowledgeable, patient and thorough. Everything you’d want! Completely satisfied! Plumber Zeke has been here twice. A third and possibly fourth visit are expected. First was an emergency response to a leak- he determined that the issue was HVAC rather than plumbing. For today’s visit he removed the water heater-necessary so that the HVAC installation team can put in a new system tomorrow. As before he was friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and effective. He made it look easy. Having assisted with this unit’s installation I’m fully aware that it’s far, far from easy. I expect that the subsequent new water heater installation will be of equally high caliber.

Great experience having the HVAC unit replaced in my condo. Max was very professional, from start to finish he kept me informed about each step, tested the unit thoroughly, and did a great job. Amber from sales was great as well, explaining the options and making the process super easy and efficient. Highly recommend.

I contacted RD Andrews to inquire about getting the attic above my garage insulated. Terry Taylor was assigned and he come to my place and gave me a very thorough opinion of the need and what I might consider. By the time he was ready to leave, I had decided that I would definitely move forward with the work as we discussed. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that the work could be done the following day and that Terry would be the installer. As promised, the next day Terry and his associate arrived when promised and within 2.5 hours, the work and all associated cleanup was complete. He provided me with photos of the "before and after". Terrific work! I am very happy with all that was done. You can bet that future need will be offered to RS Andrews. The photos are before and after.

I would highly recommend RS Andrews. I've used them in the past, but it had been a while. I needed a quote for something, and Loren Palmer came out and did a fantastic job. He was on time, early even, polite, professional, he came in and looked at what we needed done, and gave a quote on the spot, which was very competitive. They had great communication, highly recommend.

I had the pleasure of working with Jonathan Balom from RS Andrews when I encountered an issue with my air conditioner. From the moment he arrived, Jonathan demonstrated the utmost professionalism—he was punctual, polite, and incredibly efficient in diagnosing the problem. While the final recommendation was to replace my unit—an unexpected and potentially overwhelming outcome—Jonathan handled the situation with compassion and care. He gave me a moment to process the news and then took the time to thoroughly walk me through all of my options. What impressed me most was how clearly and simply he explained everything. He avoided technical jargon and made sure I understood why a replacement was the best course of action. Jonathan’s expertise, patience, and respectful demeanor made a difficult situation much easier to manage. I’m truly grateful for his help and highly recommend both him and RS Andrews to anyone in need of HVAC services.

Kwame Kilgore was a wonderful technician. He was pleasant, polite and kept us well informed about the work he was doing clearly and often. Earlier this year we had RS Andrews install a new water heater and after Kwame came to our home this time for the air conditioning repair we knew then using RS Andrews was the right choice for us. We will be your customer for as long as we own our home. 5 STARS!

Had a couple of small punch list items from a Home Inspection we needed to complete before Closing. Contacted R S Andrews on phone and their Call Center (Alison) was so helpful. Set an appointment for the next morning Received a super nice call (Ashley), first thing, to check all was still okay for the Electrician to come. Electrician arrived on time (Travon Jackson). He was extremely professional and friendly. Provided a quote for all work, and as it was acceptable, he did the work right away. In and out in 30 mins. A great experience and one I would recommend to people looking for fast, efficient, professional service for any electrical job. Travon had a ceiling fan replacement and a bathroom fan to fit later that day to give an idea of the breadth of jobs they are able to accommodate.
