This is usually caused by a voltage drop on the circuit when a high-draw appliance pulls a large amount of current at startup. In most cases, it’s harmless, but if the flickering is significant or happens frequently, it’s worth having an electrician take a look to rule out a wiring or circuit capacity issue.
It can be, depending on the cause. Flickering caused by a loose wiring connection creates arcing, which is a leading cause of electrical fires. If your flickering is persistent or accompanied by buzzing, warmth around the fixture, or a burning smell, you should have it looked at right away.
This is often caused by the fixture overheating and triggering its built-in thermal protection, which shuts the light off until it cools down. It can happen when insulation is packed too tightly around the fixture or when the bulb wattage exceeds what the fixture is rated for. Switching to lower-wattage LED bulbs often resolves the issue.
It depends on the fixture and the nature of the problem. If the issue is a simple wiring connection or a failed component, a repair is usually the more cost-effective option. If the fixture itself is in poor condition or the repair cost approaches the price of a new fixture, replacement often makes more sense. We’ll give you an honest assessment either way.
Yes. We handle both indoor and outdoor lighting repair for Sudbury homeowners. Outdoor fixtures are particularly prone to issues in our climate, and we’re experienced in diagnosing and repairing the moisture and cold-related problems that tend to affect exterior lighting in this area.
