Electrical repairs & troubleshooting
An intermittent workshop problem and a dead room receptacle may have different causes. Tell us what runs on the circuit and when power is lost.


ELECTRICAL WORK, CLOSE TO HOME
The county lists recreation sites on Highway 90 and Loop Circle in Longs. When you describe a nearby property, include the street address and the actual building or equipment needing power. Guardian can discuss electrical work for a home, business, detached garage or workshop, with the circuit planned around how you intend to use the space. An RV hookup, welder and ordinary lighting circuit have different requirements. Equipment labels, distances and access details help us define the job before materials are chosen. Requests in Longs are scheduled from Guardian's Myrtle Beach base, with travel and the agreed work confirmed together.

An intermittent workshop problem and a dead room receptacle may have different causes. Tell us what runs on the circuit and when power is lost.

A detached building, RV hookup or substantial new load calls for supply planning. We review capacity and existing equipment before deciding what panel work is necessary.

For charging at a Longs property, include the distance and intended parking area. Charger specifications and the route help establish the installation requirements.

Workshop lighting and home comfort improvements should suit how the space is used. Share ceiling heights, fixture choices and the controls you want to keep or change.

Ask about protection for household or workshop equipment when reviewing the panel. Surge devices are part of an electrical plan and do not prevent every type of damage.

Equipment for a business or larger workspace needs its manufacturer data before circuits are chosen. Include access and any planned shutdown limits with the request.
PLANNED FOR THIS PROPERTY

A shed used for storage has different electrical needs from a workshop with a compressor, welder or climate control. For a Longs outbuilding project, start with an equipment list and how you expect to use the space. Our shed and garage electrical service can then consider the supply, lighting and receptacle locations as one plan.
Tell us the approximate distance from the existing supply, the proposed building location and any finished surfaces or access restrictions. A subpanel can distribute circuits in a separate space, but its presence does not increase the capacity of the original service.

A plug that physically looks similar is not enough to identify the circuit. An RV receptacle, workshop machine and mini-split system each have equipment-specific requirements. Send a clear photo of the nameplate and the installation instructions if you have them.
Include which machines may run at the same time and whether more equipment is planned. This helps us assess the actual load and avoid designing only around today’s empty spaces in a panel. We explain whether an added circuit, feeder or service change is appropriate after reviewing the installation.
You do not need a construction project to call. We handle outlet repairs and replacements, switches and dimmers and lights and fans. Describe repeated trips, intermittent operation or the rooms affected before buying replacement parts.
If an electrical device is damaged, smells burnt or has been wet, stop using it and arrange assessment. Do not remove covers or keep resetting a circuit to see whether the problem goes away. In an immediate fire or smoke emergency, leave the area and call 911.
For an address in unincorporated Horry County, Horry County Code Enforcement provides the permit and inspection starting point. Give us the exact Longs property address and any existing building plans. Electrical work for a detached structure should be coordinated with the building project, not treated as proof that the structure itself is approved.
A new utility service and a feeder from an existing building are different arrangements. Identify your electric provider from the bill and tell us whether the building already has power. Our utility guide explains coordination without assuming one provider serves every Longs address.
Send the address, building or room use, equipment models, approximate route and photos taken safely with covers in place. Tell us about gate access and who will meet the electrician. A plan or sketch can help explain the desired layout even when a site assessment is still needed.
For a larger remodel or business project, see new wiring and remodeling or business equipment circuits. Guardian confirms the scope and scheduling before work begins, including any need for separate inspection or utility visits.

For an exterior run, the route and equipment environment are part of the assessment. Share concerns about drainage, damage, vegetation access or weather exposure. If storm damage has affected the supply, the utility and property-side electrical work may need separate coordination before equipment can be returned to service.
For a storm-related issue, tell us whether the problem affects only your property or the surrounding area. National Weather Service lightning safety guidance explains why surge protection is not a guarantee against a direct lightning strike. For fire, smoke, injury or immediate danger, move to safety and call 911.

POWER OUTAGE OR PROPERTY FAULT?
Use the electric company shown on your bill. A town name or mailing address does not determine the provider. A utility outage and a problem inside your property may need different responses.

LOCAL QUESTIONS. PRACTICAL ANSWERS.
Call (854) 237-4771 to describe the symptoms and the property address. Guardian offers 24/7 electrical service in our primary service area. Response timing in Longs depends on the location and current calls and is confirmed by phone; an online request does not reserve an appointment.
Guardian Electrical Contractors LLC holds South Carolina contractor license SC CLM.119159 and is insured and bonded. We confirm the actual property jurisdiction and coordinate the applicable permit and inspection steps for the agreed work. See our license and insurance page for the business credentials.
A long circuit can experience voltage drop that affects equipment operation. Voltage drop means less electrical pressure reaches the equipment because of resistance along the wiring. Distance, conductor size and demand are considered together when planning the supply; the breaker rating alone does not settle the design.
Send the street address, whether it is a home or business, the repair symptoms or equipment model, and the person authorized to approve the work. Include access restrictions and safe photographs with electrical covers closed. We discuss scope, pricing and the visit before work is authorized.
