When Should You Schedule an Electrical Inspection?
Many homeowners don’t think about their electrical systems until something goes wrong. But there are plenty of situations where a proactive inspection can make a big difference. If any of these sound familiar, it might be time to give us a call:
- You’re buying a home: Before you sign on the dotted line, make sure the wiring and electrical panel are in good shape.
- You’re selling your home: A clean inspection report helps avoid last-minute surprises during closing.
- You’ve done or are planning a renovation: Remodeling can affect how your system handles load. It’s a good idea to check things out beforehand.
- You live in a home that’s over 30 years old: Older wiring and panels might not meet today’s safety standards.
- You notice warning signs like flickering lights, warm outlets, burning smells, or breakers that trip frequently.
- You’ve installed major appliances like a new HVAC system, electric water heater, or EV charger.
Even if nothing seems wrong, regular inspections every few years are a smart way to protect your investment and avoid surprises.
What Does an Electrical Inspection Include?
At Classic Aire Care, we don’t cut corners. Our inspections are thorough, hands-on, and guided by decades of local experience. We look at more than just your breaker panel—we take a holistic view of your home’s entire electrical system.
Here’s a breakdown of what we check:
- Main service panel and circuit breakers: We look for corrosion, outdated models, improper labeling, and capacity issues.
- Wiring condition and materials: We assess visible wiring for signs of wear, damage, or outdated methods like knob-and-tube.
- Outlets and switches: We test for functionality, proper grounding, and overheating.
- GFCI and AFCI protection: These features are now required in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and bedrooms for safety. We check to ensure they’re in place and working.
- Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors: These critical safety devices are checked for placement and operation.
- Grounding and bonding systems: Proper grounding protects your family and devices from electrical faults.
- Exterior, attic, and garage wiring: We make sure outdoor fixtures, detached structures, and storage spaces are wired safely and up to code.
We also take the time to look at any specific concerns you may have—like buzzing sounds, outlets that don’t work, or rooms that seem underpowered.
Why Electrical Inspections Matter
Electrical problems often stay hidden until they become expensive—or even dangerous. Loose wires behind walls, overloaded panels, or aging systems can create serious fire hazards if left unaddressed. An inspection helps you catch these issues before they cause real harm.
Here’s what a quality electrical inspection can do for you:
- Protect your family by identifying shock and fire hazards early.
- Prevent damage to expensive electronics from poor wiring or power surges.
- Ensure safety compliance with current codes, especially when buying or selling.
- Avoid unnecessary repairs by catching small problems before they get worse.
- Support home upgrades by making sure your system can handle added load.
Think of it like a wellness checkup for your home. Just because nothing hurts doesn’t mean everything’s working the way it should.
