Questions
Is replacing the breaker always the fix?
No. A breaker that trips can be reacting to a real fault. That is why electrical troubleshooting has its own posted price.
Can I swap it myself?
We do not recommend working inside the panel. It carries live power.
How do I pay?
By card from a text link when the job is done, or cash or check to Doug on site.
