The short answer
What do I do when an exit sign or emergency light fails?
Get it fixed before your next inspection, not after. Most failures come down to a dead battery, a failed lamp or module, or a bad circuit. We test the unit, repair it if it's worth repairing, or replace it with a new unit and confirm it switches to battery when the power drops.

- Emergency lights that don't come on when you press test

What our customers say.
“They show up early and they work. They are professional, clean, and friendly. All my questions and concerns were addressed while they were on the worksite.”
“They show up on time, explain everything clearly, and do top-quality work every single time. It’s such a relief to have electricians we fully trust and we won’t use anyone else.”
“We have called Wyatt Electric twice, once in 2020 and again just recently. They fixed all of our problems and left our home clean, even after installing a ceiling fan in my daughter's bedroom.”
Emergency lighting questions
Before you book.
Can you fix just one or two units?
Yes. A single dark exit sign is a normal service call. Book a visit and tell us where it is.
Should I repair or replace an old unit?
It depends on the unit. Sometimes a new battery or lamp fixes it; sometimes the unit is old enough that a new one costs less over time. We'll tell you which and why.
Do you add exit signs after a renovation?
Yes. When walls move, exit routes can change. We install exit and emergency lighting for the new layout as part of the build-out or on its own.
Do you work for property managers?
Yes. We look after exit and emergency lighting as part of ongoing maintenance for managed buildings.
