Comprehensive Electrical Evaluations
Our inspection covers all accessible and visible components of the electrical system, including service drops, panelboards, grounding systems, and representative fixtures. We focus on identifying potential hazards such as corrosion, overheating, improper labeling, and missing safety features. While non-invasive, our inspections are detailed, leveraging tools like GFCI and AFCI testers to evaluate the functionality of critical safety devices.
