  • How do I know if I need an electrical inspection?

    If you are purchasing a new home, most lenders require that an electrical inspection is conducted before approving the loan. Additionally, it’s recommended to have any newly installed electrical wiring inspected by a qualified electrician. Also, if you experience flickering lights or other signs of faulty wiring, it’s important to have your electricity system checked out and repaired as soon as possible. 

  • What should be included in an electrical inspection?

    An electrical inspector will inspect all outlets and switches for proper grounding and operation, check for any exposed wiring or splices, review the main panel for adequacy and safety, check for proper load calculations and panel labeling, as well as inspect the wiring of all appliances.

  • Is it safe to perform DIY electrical work?

    Electrical work can be dangerous if done incorrectly, and sometimes doing so is illegal based on local laws and codes. It is best to leave any repairs or installations to a qualified professional electrician who has the necessary experience and training for the job. Doing so will ensure that your home or business is electrically safe and up-to-code with all regulations.  

  • How long does an electrical installation take?

    The amount of time needed for installing or repairing an electrical system varies depending on the scope of work.
