I think as a hacker you may enjoy working on electric systems. So why not do it yourself ? The tools will cost you about the same price as a single repairman-call. The process of searching for an insulation fault is very debugging-like - they both use the scientific method after all. And electrical engineers are the original hackers!
Of course, hope you know the safety rules, would not want you to get hurt. Encouragement void where forbidden by local law :)
The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. I am the clumsiest person this side of the Magellanic cloud. You should see me fumble with paint - you wouldn't want me to mess with electrics :-)
