First, unplug or switch off devices on that circuit, then reset the breaker fully OFF and back ON. If it trips again, stop and call a licensed electrician. In Sterling or Fort Morgan, repeated tripping usually means an overload or a fault.
- Unplug space heaters, microwaves, or other heavy loads.
- Reset: push to OFF firmly, then to ON.
- Press RESET on any GFCI outlets.
- If you smell burning or feel heat, do not reset.
- Call for 24/7 help if power is critical.

A light that stays on when the switch “does nothing” usually means the switch or wiring is bypassed or miswired. It can also be a failed switch or a smart/dimmer issue.
Quick checks:
- Failed switch mechanism or broken toggle.
- Line and load tied together in the box (bypasses the switch).
- Miswired 3-way switch, so the circuit never opens.
- Smart switch/dimmer with a stuck relay or missing neutral.
- Fixture wired to an always-hot feed, not the switch leg. Turn off the breaker before inspecting.

A professional whole-house rewire is priced after an on-site assessment; Circuit Makers Electric provides a written, straightforward estimate before work begins. The biggest cost drivers are the size of the home and how accessible the existing wiring is. Costs also reflect panel capacity needs, required code updates, and the level of wall and finish restoration after runs. Permits and inspections are typically required and will affect scope and timing. We regularly complete full-home rewiring for homeowners in the Atwood area. For larger or older homes, phasing the job can reduce disruption while keeping key circuits available.
Expect your estimate to account for:
- Square footage and number of circuits
- Attic, crawlspace, or conduit access
- Panel upgrade or subpanel needs
- Patch and paint after wire routes
Schedule a licensed electrician to inspect and quote before you set budgets or timelines.
