Repairs & rewiring

Electrical Repairs & Rewiring in Dallas–Fort Worth

Flickering lights, dead outlets, a breaker that keeps tripping, or buzzing in the walls are warning signs you should never ignore. Xcel Electrical Services diagnoses the root cause fast and repairs it right — from a single circuit to a whole-home rewire — across the DFW metroplex.

Electrical problems rarely fix themselves, and many of the symptoms homeowners shrug off — a warm outlet, a breaker that trips when the microwave runs, lights that dim — are early signs of a wiring fault that can become a fire risk. Our licensed electricians track down the actual cause instead of just treating the symptom, then make a clean, code-compliant repair.

We handle outlet, switch, and fixture repairs, troubleshooting of outages and tripping breakers, partial and whole-home rewires, and the replacement of unsafe knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring common in older Dallas–Fort Worth homes. We also wire remodels, additions, and kitchen and bath renovations so new spaces are safe and up to current code.

FAQ

Electrical repair questions

Do you handle emergency electrical repairs?

We respond fast — typically within 24 hours — to problems like outages, tripping breakers, burning smells, or sparking outlets. If you ever smell burning or see sparks, shut off the affected circuit and call us right away.

How do I know if my house needs to be rewired?

Frequent breaker trips, two-prong ungrounded outlets, knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring, and recurring faults are common signs. We inspect the system and tell you honestly whether you need a targeted repair or a partial/whole-home rewire — and give you a clear quote first.

Can you fix an outlet that stopped working?

Yes. A dead outlet can be anything from a tripped GFCI to a loose connection or a failing circuit. We diagnose the cause and repair or replace the outlet and wiring as needed, safely and to code.

Is aluminum wiring dangerous?

Aluminum branch wiring from the 1960s–70s is prone to loose, overheating connections. We can remediate it with approved connectors or rewire affected circuits to make your home safe.
