Warning Signs Your Electrical System Needs Attention

Electrical problems rarely announce themselves loudly. More often, the signs are subtle enough to dismiss until something more serious develops. Watch for these indicators that the system needs a professional look:

• Flickering or dimming lights when appliances start up
• Outlets or switches that feel warm to the touch
• Burning smells from outlets, switches, or appliances
• Circuit breakers that trip frequently or will not stay reset
• Electrical shocks when touching outlets or appliances
• Lights or outlets that stopped working without an obvious cause

Any of these warrants a service call. For sparking, burning smells, or anything that suggests an active hazard, turn off the main breaker if it is safe to do so and call us immediately at (719) 800-7121. Our team is available around the clock for electrical emergencies.

Keeping Your System Safe Between Service Calls

A few simple habits go a long way toward reducing electrical risk in your home:

• Do not overload circuits with multiple high-wattage appliances or devices
• Install surge protection to guard electronics during power fluctuations
• Have GFCI outlets installed in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor areas where moisture is a factor
• Schedule periodic inspections to catch potential issues before they develop
• Replace outdated wiring, switches, or outlets rather than working around them

Our Awesome Club Membership Program includes an annual electrical inspection on request, covering panel connection torquing, GFCI and AFCI testing, outlet plug testing, smoke alarm battery replacement for detectors under five years old, and a thorough evaluation of all outlets throughout the home. Members also receive a discounted $49 service fee and 15% off all repairs, at $399 per year or $29.95 per month.

EV Charger Installation & Tesla Powerwalls

For homeowners commuting to Colorado Springs and back, a standard 120V outlet often cannot fully restore an EV battery overnight, particularly in colder months when range contracts. A Level 2 wall-mounted charger solves that problem, delivering enough capacity to start every morning with a full charge regardless of how far the previous day's drive was.

We are a Tesla Certified Installer, equipped to install the Tesla Wall Connector and Tesla Powerwalls. The team also installs Level 2 chargers for all major EV brands, handling everything from the panel assessment to the finished installation, including permits and inspections. Upfront pricing is presented before work begins, and free estimates are available.

Colorado battery and EV charger incentives may also help offset the cost of installation. Our team can advise on what is currently available and whether your planned installation qualifies.

How Local Factors Put Extra Demands on Electrical Systems

Several factors affect how residential electrical systems perform and age.

• Aging construction: Homes in the Peyton were largely built during the early-to-mid 2000s. That construction is reaching the age where panels, wiring, and components show wear, and the electrical loads that today's households place on those systems, home offices, EV chargers, smart home devices, high-draw appliances, often exceed what they were originally designed to carry.
• Storm surge risk: El Paso County sees active summer thunderstorms, and Peyton's open high-plains location offers little natural shelter from lightning. Voltage spikes from nearby strikes can damage appliances, electronics, and HVAC control boards, sometimes without leaving immediately visible signs. Whole-home surge protection is one of the more practical investments for properties in this part of the county.
• Elevation effects: At nearly 6,900 feet, lower air density affects how electrical panels dissipate heat. Proper ventilation around electrical equipment is more important at altitude, and it is a factor worth accounting for in any panel upgrade or major installation.
• Static discharge: Colorado's low-humidity environment increases the risk of static buildup, which can affect older wiring and sensitive components over time.

The People Behind the Work

Awesome Home Services was founded by Leonard "Lenny" Siers, an Air Force veteran who started as a one-man operation in 1995 and spent the next three decades building companies and, more importantly, building people. When Lenny partnered with co-founder Brandyn Nuffer, whose family roots run deep in Colorado Springs, the goal was never just to run another home services company. It was to create a place where technicians could grow, where customers were treated like neighbors, and where the work was done with the kind of integrity that holds up long after the job is finished.

That foundation shows up on every service call. The electricians Awesome Home Services sends to Peyton homes are not just licensed and insured. They are people the company has invested in and stands behind. The values Lenny carried out of the military – accountability, discipline, and service above self – are the same values the team brings to your home.

From everyday repairs to bigger electrical upgrades, Awesome Home Services can help you plan the right next step. Schedule online or call (719) 800-7121.

Frequently Asked Questions 

What should I check before calling an electrician? 

Start with the breaker panel. If a breaker has tripped, reset it once. If it trips again immediately, that signals something needs service rather than another reset. For an outlet that stopped working, check whether a nearby GFCI outlet has tripped. Those reset buttons are typically found in bathrooms, kitchens, and garages and can cut power to other outlets on the same circuit.

Does electrical work require permits? 

Most significant electrical work in El Paso County requires permits and inspections. We handle the permitting process as part of the job, so you don’t have to.

How do I know if my panel needs upgrading? 

Watch for breakers that trip frequently, lights that dim when large appliances start, a panel that feels warm to the touch, or a home that has added significant new loads, like an EV charger or a hot tub, without a panel assessment.

What does adding electrical to a new area of the home typically cost? 

Adding electrical service to a basement, garage, detached structure, or home addition typically ranges from $1,000 to $15,000 depending on distance from the main panel, load requirements, and installation complexity. We will give you an exact number for your project before any work begins.
