Why Electrical Home Inspections Are Important

Electrical systems are extremely dangerous, so keeping them in great condition is important to both the functionality and the safety of your home. Residential electrical inspection professionals use a series of tests and inspections in order to evaluate the condition of your system and rectify any issues.

Older buildings and homes may have out-dated wiring or electrical systems. A residential electrical inspection can also help identify what components can be upgraded in order to keep systems running, improve home value, and ensure that occupants remain safe.

Preventative Maintenance for Electrical Home Inspection

Preventive maintenance is a systematic inspection of equipment, in order to detect where potential problems may occur and correct them in order to prevent equipment failure before it happens. Depending on the operation and type of electrical system, the exact preventative maintenance required will vary.

Preventative Maintenance

Preventative maintenance includes much more than simply performing routine inspections on equipment.

It also involves creating accurate records, following appropriate procedures, and making informed decisions about issues.

Only personnel that are properly trained for the specific equipment can perform appropriate maintenance and testing.

Concise and Complete Record-Keeping

A clear record-keeping system will help keep the program on track, and ensure that all the work is being done when it is supposed to be.

Tracking of test results is beneficial to communication and effectiveness between electrical home inspections, and the technicians administering them.

Cost-Effective Services

Electrical preventative maintenance is cost-effective in several different ways.

First, it is cheaper to make repairs to equipment before it fails, rather than waiting for breakdowns that can cause damage to other components in the system.

Second, an effective electrical preventative maintenance program will improve equipment efficiency and reduce utility bills. 

Maintenance Contracts & Programs

Many property managers and homeowners enter into preventive maintenance and service contracts on equipment and electrical systems so they can have the peace of mind that their electrical systems are optimal. Having a monthly or annual maintenance program in place can help avoid costly repairs, especially in an emergency situation, so preventing large repairs can be highly cost-effective and help you sleep better knowing you're in good hands.

Customer Reviews

Thermal Imaging Inspections for Your Home's Electrical System

Most electrical failures announce themselves as heat long before they cause a problem. A loose breaker connection, an overloaded circuit, or a corroded lug will run hot for months while looking completely normal to the naked eye. Our thermographic scanning uses an infrared camera to see that heat, so we can find the trouble spot while it is still a repair and not a fire.

We scan your main panel, sub-panels, breakers, receptacles, and hardwired equipment under normal load, then walk you through what we found. Every scan comes with a report showing the thermal images, the temperature readings, and a clear priority list — what needs attention now, what to watch, and what is fine.
