Home Electrical Inspections & Safety Updates

Buying a home, selling one, or just not sure what's behind those old outlets? A licensed electrician's inspection — with honest findings, not a scare-tactic sales pitch.

What we inspect

  • Panel condition — hazard brands (Federal Pacific, Zinsco), double-taps, corrosion, capacity
  • Grounding & bonding to current code
  • GFCI/AFCI protection where code requires it
  • Outlet, switch & fixture condition sampling
  • Visible wiring — aluminum branch circuits, knob-and-tube remnants, DIY surprises
  • Smoke & CO detector placement and function
  • Exterior electrical, weatherproofing & service entrance
  • Home-sale punch lists — we fix what the buyer's inspector flagged

The honest version of this service

Some outfits use "free inspections" as a sales funnel and find $8,000 of problems in every house. We don't do free — we do honest. You get a written findings list ranked fix now / fix soon / fine for now, with a price for each. Plenty of inspections end with "your wiring is fine." That honesty is why our clients are repeat clients.
