Around Flora Vista, properties are spread out and electrical systems work hard: wells, heat, shops, and outbuildings a long way from the meter. Cold winters and dry, windy springs take their toll on outdoor wiring and connections.

Most properties in San Juan County get their electricity from Farmington Electric Utility System, the City of Aztec, or the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.

Electrical Troubleshooting FAQs for Flora Vista

Why do my lights flicker in my Flora Vista home?

A single flickering bulb is usually the bulb or fixture. Flickering in one room points to a loose connection on that circuit. Flickering through the whole house can be a loose main or neutral connection, or a utility problem, and needs prompt attention.

Why does my breaker keep tripping?

The three usual causes are an overloaded circuit, a short or ground fault, or a worn-out breaker. We measure the load, test the wiring, and check the breaker so you know which one it is.

How long does troubleshooting take?

Most faults are found within the first hour. Intermittent problems can take longer because we may need to recreate the conditions that trigger them.
