A Ok Electric: Experienced Electrical Services Serving Boise 83709

Rodent damage to wiring is a common issue in Boise. Our thorough electrical inspection includes a careful visual examination of accessible wiring in attics, basements, and crawl spaces—areas where rodents often nest. We look for telltale signs like gnaw marks, frayed insulation, or nesting materials. Identifying and repairing this damage is crucial, as exposed wires can lead to short circuits, power outages, or even electrical fires. We'll provide a clear report and recommend the necessary repairs to make your home safe again.

Loose connections can develop over time due to the natural expansion and contraction of materials with temperature changes, or from the vibration of appliances. During our professional inspection, we use specialized tools like thermal imaging cameras to detect abnormal heat buildup at connection points—a key indicator of a loose, arcing wire. We also physically check and tighten connections in your main panel and at major devices. Catching these issues early prevents overheating, potential fire hazards, and damage to your expensive electronics.

Our standard inspection is a comprehensive safety check of your home's electrical system. We'll examine your main service panel for proper labeling and amperage, test outlets for correct wiring and GFCI/AFCI protection, inspect visible wiring for damage, and evaluate the condition of switches and fixtures. We pay special attention to the local issues we see often, like rodent damage and loose connections. You'll receive a detailed, easy-to-understand report of our findings, along with a prioritized list of any recommendations to ensure your system is safe, functional, and up to current National Electrical Code standards.
