Prien service from Hayes Electrical. Same-day response on most calls. Call (337) 570-2327.
Hayes Electrical handles electrical repairs for homes and businesses in Prien, and the surrounding Southwest Louisiana area. Licensed, bonded, insured, with our Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee on every job.
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.
Prien repair calls cover the usual catalogue for newer suburban homes: dead outlets, switches that no longer click cleanly, GFCIs that will not reset, AFCI breakers that nuisance-trip on a specific circuit, dimmers that buzz or flicker on LED loads, ceiling fans that wobble, smart switches that lock up, and pool or spa equipment circuits that drop out after a wet-weather event.
We troubleshoot before we replace. That means voltage and continuity checks at the device, a load test at the panel, and a look at how the circuit is split before we touch a wire. Common findings in post-2000 Prien homes: backstabbed devices that have lost tension after 15 to 20 years of thermal cycling, shared neutrals on multi-wire branch circuits that trip a modern AFCI, downstream noise from a failing appliance triggering an AFCI elsewhere on the circuit, GFCI receptacles past their service life (the test buttons stop working at around 10 years), and dimmer-driver mismatches after a homeowner swapped LED lamps.
For Prien addresses the typical repair call is a one-visit job, parts willing. We carry standard breakers (including AFCI and DF/CAFCI), GFCI devices, and box materials on the truck. If a job turns into something larger (a panel that filled up and needs a sub-panel, a circuit that should be split rather than patched) we will tell you on site and write a quote you can review.
Prien is the unincorporated Calcasieu Parish area along Lake Street and Country Club Road. Electrical permits are issued by the Calcasieu Parish Police Jury Building Division. We pull the permit and meet the parish inspector. Permit work runs under LA Lic #73821. You do not touch the paperwork.
Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee on every install. If our work fails because of how we put it in, we come back and fix it at no charge. Documented in writing at handoff and stays with the home.
Here is the no-spin cut on electrical repairs. Same answer we would give a friend in Westlake or Carlyss, whether or not we end up winning the job.
Times are typical, not guaranteed. Traffic, weather, and parts on hand can shift them. We will tell you a real window when you call.

Hayes Electrical, LLC treat you like family. When I called I had an immediate need and they made me a priority. They were very friendly and professional and communicated well. There was no guessing. Their office staff and the person who answers the phone was on top of it! If you're looking for great professional service then you need to call Hayes Electrical.
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.
We turned to the company for help to find out the reason why our generator stopped working, fix the problem and start it. We were served by Dorian, a very nice young man, a good specialist and a professional in his field. Everything went well, Dorian did diagnostics, invited a mechanic and our generator works. We recommend this company if you have problems with the generator.
The sweetest people ever, they were very nice and you know they know what they are talking about when it comes to their work. I was only able to do the first half of the work. We had some issues with ENTERGY but they were able to help resolve the issues in a timely manner. Thank you!
AFCI nuisance trips usually come from one of three sources: a shared neutral on a multi-wire branch circuit, electrical noise from a failing appliance or LED driver on the circuit, or a wire pinched at a staple or behind a device. We trace the actual cause rather than swapping the breaker and hoping.
Sometimes yes, but check the neutral first. Many smart switches need a neutral at the box, and if a previous fixture swap broke the neutral the switch will lock up. We verify the neutral, the load compatibility, and the firmware before recommending a replacement.
Either the device has reached end of life (GFCIs typically last about 10 years before the internal test circuit stops working), or there is a real ground fault downstream that the device is correctly catching. We test for both before deciding which one to fix.
