Electrical Home Inspection

An electrical home inspection gives a thorough examination of your entire electrical system, ensuring all electrical wires, components (such as appliances) and systems meet legal safety standards. The National Electrical Code (NEC) is the code that all electricians operate under while examining your home, and defines the parameters for minimum standards across the region. Upon completion of your electrical home inspection, an expert electrical inspector will provide a detailed, prioritized checklist including areas that needs of immediate attention, recommendations for improvements, and potential upgrade possibilities.
