The exact policy varies by contractor, and it should be confirmed on the phone before anyone travels.

Can I get an emergency electrician in Greenwood tonight?

Emergency requests are accepted 24/7 and after-hours calls are prioritised when the situation is genuinely hazardous — burning smells, smoke, sparks, a hot panel or water contacting live wiring. Availability depends on the contractor on duty, so call and describe exactly what you can see and smell.
