When David lost power to his entire home, he needed answers fast. No lights, no HVAC, no comfort. After an initial visit from Central Maine Power, he still faced a serious electrical problem, and his house stayed dark. A problem like this brings a household to a stop, and getting it fixed quickly is the priority. He called HomeWiz for emergency electrical service.
Digging Deeper Than the First Diagnosis
Our technician arrived ready to track down the source of the failure rather than patch the issue. CMP had already provided an initial diagnosis, and our team addressed it first. From there, the technician kept investigating until he found the root cause behind the outage. This kind of persistence made the difference for David.
Once he traced the wiring back to the panel, the story became clear. He found the failed part, replaced it, and restored power at a fair cost.
David explained what the crew found in his own words:
"Had a major power issue with the house recently and had to call someone to come out and help as soon as possible because we had no power at all. We called CMP originally and they provided us with an initial diagnosis that HomeWiz fixed, but it turns out that issue was auxiliary to the main issue. They were determined to fix the problem though and had cleared up their schedule to make sure we were taken care of the day the part came in. They found the originating issue and replaced the affected part, showing and explaining to me that previous HVAC guys years ago drilled into the back of the breaker box, which eventually shorted out the entire house."
Clear Communication and Professional Training
Throughout the repair, the technician walked David through each finding and explained what needed attention.
David noticed something else during the visit as well:
"Additionally, I could hear him training what I assume to be an apprentice, and their relationship and communication seemed extremely professional between the two. As a previous craftsman who worked on airplanes, I value that relationship, and it was good to hear."
This kind of mentorship reflects our commitment to training every technician who joins the team.

HomeWiz was thrilled to hear that David's experience matched what the team works to deliver on every call. The technicians aimed to provide professional service, explain the repair process clearly, and diagnose and resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
Restoring each home system to full performance matters, and so does keeping homeowners informed every step of the way, which is exactly what David experienced.
