What it usually is
A dead outlet is often a tripped GFCI elsewhere on the circuit, a tripped breaker or a worn-out outlet. Several dead outlets in a row point to the circuit, not the outlet.
What to do first
Press the reset button on nearby GFCI outlets and check the panel for a tripped breaker. If an outlet is hot, sparks or smells burnt, stop using it.

Steilacoom is a small historic waterfront town next to Lakewood, with older homes and a compact downtown. Older Steilacoom homes often have a mix of old and updated pipe and wiring, which is worth a look before we price a change.
