- Code violations — unlicensed emergency repairs violate Texas law and San Antonio building codes.
- Making it worse — DIY attempts on electrical emergencies frequently expand the scope and cost of professional repairs.
- No warranty — DIY emergency repairs offer zero protection if something goes wrong hours or days later.
