Lightning Damage Repair
Sparks Electrical Solutions responds to post-strike emergencies across SW Wisconsin. A direct or near-miss lightning strike can damage your service entrance, melt panel bus bars, blow out GFCIs and AFCIs throughout the home, fry HVAC control boards, kill smoke detectors, and leave hidden damage to in-wall wiring that won't reveal itself until weeks later when something catches fire.
We perform a top-to-bottom electrical inspection after every strike, document everything for your insurance carrier with photos and detailed write-ups, replace damaged components, test grounding integrity, and re-energize the home only when we're sure it's safe.

Frequently Asked Questions
My house was struck and the power is out — can I flip the main back on?
No. There may be melted bus bars, ground bond damage, or compromised insulation that can start a fire or shock you. Leave it off and call us — (608) 790-1334.
Will my homeowner's insurance cover lightning damage?
Almost all policies cover lightning damage. The hard part is documenting everything to maximize the payout — we provide a written estimate and photo inventory that adjusters expect to see.
How fast can you get out here?
Same-day emergency response across SW Wisconsin in most cases. Call (608) 790-1334.
What's the most commonly damaged item after a strike?
Surge protective devices, GFCI/AFCI breakers, garage door openers, well pumps, HVAC control boards, and any wired smoke detectors are usually the first to go. Anything connected at the moment of the strike is at risk.
Should I install lightning protection after a strike?
Yes — if it happened once, it can happen again. We'll bid an NFPA 780 system at the same time we repair the damage so your next storm is a non-event.
