A-Kay Electric - Harvey's Licensed Electricians

Yes, absolutely. A key part of our thorough electrical inspection is identifying the type of wiring in your home. Many older homes in Harvey were built with aluminum wiring, which can pose a serious fire hazard due to overheating connections. Our licensed electricians will locate and assess any aluminum wiring, explain the risks, and provide clear, expert options for making your home safer, such as installing proper connectors or recommending a full rewire.

Our inspection evaluates your home's entire electrical system, including its defense against surges. We check for and test existing surge protection devices at your main panel and recommend whole-house surge protection if needed. This is crucial in Harvey, where storms and grid fluctuations can send damaging spikes through your wiring. Proper surge protection installed by our experts can prevent costly damage to refrigerators, HVAC systems, and electronics.

You can expect a detailed, neighborly assessment from our licensed professionals. We'll meticulously check your electrical panel for safety and capacity, test outlets and switches, inspect wiring (including for aluminum), evaluate grounding and bonding systems, and assess lighting and appliance circuits. We focus on Harvey-specific issues, providing you with a clear, written report of our findings and prioritized recommendations to ensure your family's safety and your system's reliability.
