Whether you’re looking to repair your home’s circuit breaker panel or upgrade your residential devices, HB Home Service Team is the trusted choice. We are an employee-owned and operated company that has been providing quality residential electrical services to homeowners in Central Pennsylvania since 1914. Some of the electrical services we offer include:
Circuit Breaker Panels
The circuit breaker panel distributes and regulates the current that flows within your home. If the circuit breaker is faulty, it won’t be able to detect power surges or regulate the electrical current. As a result, your electrical appliances can be damaged, and your home will be at risk of electrical fire.
When you notice your electrical panel has a problem, your first instinct may be to check it out yourself, but that will only put you at risk of electrocution. Instead, we recommend calling a licensed electrician.
Signs That Your Panel Has a Problem
Before a circuit breaker completely shuts down, there will be signs to warn you. If you detect these indicators early and call a professional to fix them, you won’t have to experience the damage that comes with a faulty circuit breaker. Here are some signs to look out for:
- Flickering lights:Â If your lights flicker or dim consistently or when you turn on a large appliance or use several appliances at once, this could indicate that you have an overloaded panel. This problem is a clear clue that your current circuit breaker panel is not strong enough to meet your home’s power needs and needs replacement or an upgrade.
- Frequent trips:Â When a circuit breaker trips, this indicates you’re putting too much demand on it. Move some of your appliances to another circuit, or replace the old panel with a new one that can handle the high demand. This issue is usually common in older homes with circuit breakers that weren’t designed to support the needs of modern appliances.
- Burned spots or smells on the breaker or outlet:Â If you see burned spots on your breaker box or pick up on a burning smell coming from your outlets, it’s a clear sign that your breaker panel is overheating. This issue requires immediate attention, and you should call an electrical contractor before an electrical fire breaks out.
At HB Home Service Team, we provide comprehensive residential electrical services for circuit breakers, including the following:

Replacing your circuit breaker is ideal if you have an older home or want to upgrade to a panel that meets electrical codes. Our electricians will assess your house’s electrical requirements and install a breaker panel that can handle your power needs.
Circuit Breaker Installation
If you are renovating your current home or building a new one, a home service electrician can assess the electrical requirements of your build and install brand-new circuit breaker panels.
Generators
Sometimes, the power goes out for a few hours, days or even weeks without notice, and during that time, everything that depends on electricity in your home stops working. Your refrigerated food can spoil, and you may even have trouble completing your job if you work from home.
A generator provides backup power to prevent these issues during an outage. At HB Home Service Team, we provide generator services such as:
