Electrical Inspections from Grounded Solutions
Is your circuit breaker tripping randomly?
Are lights flickering in your home — and not because little hands are playing with the light switches? Or, are you purchasing a new home?
It’s time for an electrical home inspection!
Most likely, the electrical wiring in your home, or in a home you are considering purchasing, is not something that you think about often. It truly doesn’t tend to spark up interest in most homeowners, yet when things go awry with the electricity, you won’t be able to think of anything else!
Residential electrical inspections are a must in a number of situations. You may need one if:
- You are buying a home
- You have never had an electrical inspection in your current home
- You notice certain “red flags” that your electricity might be faulty
These three scenarios are the most common situations where an inspection by a licensed electrical inspector is needed to ensure that all of the wiring and other features of your electrical system are on the up and up. Let’s take a closer look at each scenario and why an inspection is needed.
You Are Buying A Home
That shiny new home may look pretty and polished, but it could be a hiding a host of wiring issues. You might think that the traditional home inspection will cover this, but usually inspectors don’t look deeper into the wiring of a home. A licensed electrical inspector is well-versed and trained on the home’s electrical system and may find things that a home inspector, who is looking at many, many aspects of the home, may not be aware of.
If you’re buying an older home, an electrical safety inspection is an absolute must. Homes built before modern advancements may have unsafe wiring, outdated code requirements or other problems that could lead to serious headaches down the road.
Bottom line: Get a residential electrical inspection before you sign on the dotted line.
You Have Never Had An Electrical Inspection
You Notice Electrical Red Flags
Living in a haunted house sounds fun in theory, but when that flickering light in your basement starts up at 3 AM, it’s not so enjoyable. If you’re experiencing flickering lights or circuit breakers randomly tripping, it’s time to call in a professional. A thorough inspection can help determine the root cause of these issues, so you can rest easy. Bye-bye, strobe light!
