My parents have an older home and was having an issue with circuits overloading. We contacted Hayes after seeing they had rave reviews. They sent someone right over, diagnosed the issue and gave us a few pricing package options. We selected the pricing package that was most affordable for us and scheduled their appointment to come back and do the work. On the day scheduled, two gentlemen arrived promptly, did a walk through assessment and helped us understand everything they would be doing and got right to work! They were professional, efficient and very thorough. My parents circuits were rerouted and are working better than ever!

From our Lake Charles shop.
Trucks dispatch out of 803 W Bayou Pines Dr, Ste D, Lake Charles, LA 70601. Most days a crew is already inside Calcasieu Parish on another job, so the drive is short. For after-hours calls we roll one out from the shop.
Circuit breaker repair in Moss Bluff most often means diagnosing why a breaker will not reset and deciding whether the breaker, the busbar, or the downstream load (commonly a well pump or central AC) is the real problem. Square D QO and Eaton BR panels from the 1980s through the 2000s hold up well in the perimeter; Federal Pacific Stab-Lok and Zinsco panels that survive on a few 1970s Sulphur and Vinton homes are a different story.
We start by measuring the actual load on the circuit with a clamp meter, checking the breaker temperature with an infrared spot, and inspecting the lug torque on the panel side. Well-pump circuits often look like a bad breaker but are actually a failed pressure switch or a stuck contactor at the pump pack. If the breaker itself fails to hold a known-good load, we replace it with a panel-matched listed unit. We do not field-repair breakers; they are sealed assemblies and the only NEC-compliant fix is replacement per the panel manufacturer.
When the panel itself is the failure point (burned busbar, cracked stab, or obsolete brand that is unsafe to keep loading), we make the home safe and quote a panel replacement filed with the Calcasieu Parish Office of Permits and Inspections.
What we look at for this job
Permits and inspections
Moss Bluff is unincorporated Calcasieu Parish, so electrical permits are issued by the Calcasieu Parish Police Jury Building Division. We pull the permit at the parish office and meet the parish inspector for rough and final. Permit work runs under LA Lic #73821. You do not touch the paperwork.

Great service! Brent was able to diagnose the problem and complete the repair quickly and efficiently! He was able to solve a problem that my contractor's electricians were unable to solve! He was very courteous and professional. Highly recommend Hayes Electrical!! Great experience from first call to the end!
Great price Brent was very helpful and professional and was able to provide a variety of repair options to choose from. Bailey and Mackenzie were able to complete the repairs promptly and efficiently. Overall, we are very satisfied with the services provided!
A group of men and woman that are talented and focused. All licensed. Their customer service is excellent. They were able to upgrade my electrical system for a house built in the 1970s. We removed outdated fluorescent lighting, and these were replaced with current LED canned lighting, expanded the circuit board and repaired the drywall hole that the old fluorescence left in the ceiling. When we asked for options, they gave us multiple options from which we discussed pros and cons of each. Lastly, they are honest, trustworthy, and reliable.
Common questions for Circuit Breaker Repair in Moss Bluff
My breaker keeps tripping in my Moss Bluff home. Is the breaker bad?
Sometimes, but more often the downstream load is the problem. On well-pump circuits in Moss Bluff the cause is usually a failed pressure switch. We confirm with a clamp meter before we replace anything.
Can you repair a breaker rather than replace it in my Moss Bluff panel?
No. Circuit breakers are sealed listed assemblies and field repair is not NEC-compliant. We replace with the same brand and rating.
Is it safe to keep using my Federal Pacific panel in Moss Bluff?
We will swap a single breaker if you need to keep going short term, but we will also tell you plainly that the documented failure-to-trip rate on FPE Stab-Lok panels makes full replacement the better long-term call.
