“John Villars came to service my home‚ our electrical needs/repairs. He was prompt, polite and professional throughout his work visit. I had a new breaker box put in so that I could be grounded and up to code. He also updated a couple of electrical sockets and an outdoor one as well. I plan to have them back to correct two more items in my older home. He is so quiet and efficient and the price I feel was very reasonable!”

“Had issues with outside GFI outlet. Alec arrived on time and listened to the problem and replaced the outside GFI outlet. The issue didn’t occur again, but he still gave input on next steps if the problem recurs. I was impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. He listened to me, and that doesn’t always happen with all companies. This is the second time I have used Five Star and I am now using them for everything HVAC, Plumbing, or Electrical.”

What Influences the Cost of Home Electrical Repair

Scope: The size and complexity of the project will impact how much your electrical repair will cost.

Size and Layout: We’ll take into account your square footage and how your home is laid out in order to understand your system configuration and how repairs will need to be performed.

Age of Electrical System: Since some of Dayton’s homes are on the older side, they may have been built prior to the most recent electrical codes. If we’re performing work on an older home, we’ll need to make sure the electrical system is updated to the latest standards.

Necessary Parts: If we have to order special parts to complete the repair, that will influence the cost of the service.

Accessibility: How easy it is to access the electrical component we’re repairing will play a role in the final cost. For instance, it will be more expensive if we need to poke holes in walls or use additional labor.

Required Labor: The amount of time and labor needed to complete the job is the greatest influence on the final cost.

Dayton Electrical Repair FAQs

Your electrical questions—answered.

Electrical safety matters, and quick repairs can prevent major hazards. Here’s what Ohio homeowners ask most about electrical repair services.

You may be experiencing overheating due to a lack of ventilation around your light fixtures.

Yes. We often provide same-day or next-day repairs throughout Greater Dayton Ohio, especially when safety is a concern.

If your outlet has stopped functioning entirely or you notice burn marks or sparks, you should contact our team at Five Star Home Services at your earliest convenience.

No, we very strongly do not recommend performing repairs on your own electrical system if you’re not a licensed electrician. That’s because working with electricity can cause electrocution or fires if not handled correctly. You should contact a licensed electrician at Five Star Home Services who is well-versed in the necessary safety protocols for repairing electrical systems.

GVCI stands for “Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter”. They’re intended to improve safety, especially in environments where moisture is likely present. This type of outlet can detect electrical anomalies and shut off power to the outlet before hazards can occur. You can tell if you have a GFCI outlet if you see the “test” and “reset” buttons on your outlet panel.

The duration of electrical repairs varies widely depending on what needs to be fixed. Smaller jobs may only require a few hours, but larger jobs may need multiple days. For a more exact estimate, you should contact us directly so we can take into account your individual circumstances and expectations.
