Commonly Asked Questions
What’s included in an electrical safety inspection?
A professional inspection includes a full evaluation of your wiring, circuit breakers, outlets, panels, grounding, smoke detectors, and more. We’ll identify outdated components or code violations and recommend necessary upgrades.
Do I need a panel upgrade for new appliances?
If you’re adding high-demand appliances like an EV charger, hot tub, or HVAC system, you may need a panel upgrade. We’ll assess your current capacity and determine what’s required.
How do I know if my home’s wiring is outdated?
Flickering lights, frequent breaker trips, or outlets that are warm to the touch are signs your wiring may be outdated. Homes built before the 1980s may require rewiring to meet today’s electrical demands and safety standards.
Can you install lighting systems both indoors and outdoors?
Yes! We offer full-service lighting solutions, including recessed lighting, under-cabinet lighting, landscape lighting, and motion-activated security lighting.
What’s the benefit of installing whole-home surge protection?
Whole-home surge protectors safeguard your appliances, electronics, and wiring from damage caused by voltage spikes during storms or power surges.
What are signs I need an electrical repair or upgrade?
Burning smells, buzzing from outlets, frequently tripped breakers, or lights dimming when appliances are running are all red flags that your system needs attention.
