A burning smell near an outlet means something is already too hot. Brooklyn Electrician sends an emergency electrician to find it.
Our electricians work out of 1368 Fulton St and take urgent calls from brownstones, apartment buildings, and shops across Brooklyn. Call (929) 460-9789 and tell us what you see, what you smell, and whether the breaker tripped. We ask all three anyway.
When to Call an Emergency Electrician in Brooklyn
Call right away for an outlet or switch plate that feels hot. Same for a breaker that trips again the second you reset it. Buzzing inside a wall counts too, and so do lights that dim across the whole apartment when the fridge kicks on. Water dripping into a panel after a roof leak is another one - top-floor units get it after a hard rain.
By mid-April 2026 the FDNY had counted 29 fire deaths in the city for the year, and nine came from fires caused by electrical issues. If you see smoke or flames, leave and call 911 first. We come after the fire department clears the building.

An Electrician Finds the Fault
We open the device, check the connections, and test the circuit with a meter. Loose neutrals and overheated splices cause most of what we find.

We Make It Safe, Then Repair It
The hazard gets isolated first. You get a written price for the full repair before we go any further.
What an Emergency Electrician Costs in Brooklyn
The fault decides the bill. A burned receptacle on a healthy circuit is a short repair. A melted bus bar inside an old panel is a bigger job, and it usually leads to a conversation with our panel upgrade electricians. Access matters too - a meter room locked by a super who isn't answering his phone adds time nobody planned for. We quote before we repair, in writing, every time.
Power Out? When to Call Con Edison and When to Call an Electrician
Look out the window. If the whole block is dark, the problem belongs to Con Edison - report the outage or call 1-800-75-CONED. If the neighbors have lights and you don't, check your main breaker. A dead apartment with a live hallway points to your panel or the feed to it, and that is our side of the meter. Downed wires on the street go to Con Edison and the police. Never touch one.
After the emergency, the cause still needs fixing. Our electrical repair team handles the follow-up, and old cloth wiring often sends the job to our rewiring electricians. The electrician FAQs explain permits. Brooklyn Electrician answers at (929) 460-9789.
