Electrical Safety Inspections

When Should You Get a Residential Electrical Safety Inspection?

Residential electrical inspections help identify minor issues before they become big problems. We recommend scheduling an electrical inspection if you are:

• Planning home upgrades: Remodeling is exciting but opt for an inspection before you start. This step ensures your electrical system can support any new fixtures and outlets. If you need any repairs or upgrades, you can include them in your home remodeling budget to save money and time.
• Doing DIY projects: A certified professional can visually verify that no electrical systems were disturbed if you recently upgraded your home. They can also make sure the panel is still supplying power efficiently.
• Living in an older home: Older homes may still use outdated knob and tube wiring or have disintegrating sheathing. An visual inspection can identify these issues, and our team will replace damaged components or repair any electrical problems.
• Due for an inspection: An assessment is essential if you bought a new home or without arranging one beforehand. We recommend routine inspections so that any safety concerns can be addressed before they worsen.
• Concerned about storm damage: Electrical damage may not be evident immediately after a significant weather event. Getting an inspection is vital if your home experiences any damage from water, detached tree branches, power lines or lightning.
• Experiencing any issues: Sudden or continual electrical issues may indicate a severe underlying problem. Scheduling an inspection as soon as you notice these inconsistencies will help your system run as it should.
