Can I Repair a Circuit Breaker Myself or Should I Hire a Pro?

You can reset a tripped breaker once, but hire a licensed electrician for breaker replacement or any panel work. Working inside a panel is hazardous and must meet code. Fix-it 24/7 provides 24/7 emergency diagnosis and repairs by licensed, insured techs with upfront, flat-rate pricing across the Denver metro.

Quick checks:

  • Turn off major loads. Reset the tripped breaker once.
  • If it trips again, or you smell burning, see sparks, or flicker, stop and call.
  • Do not open the panel or touch wiring.
