Alex 3 Electric - Hanover Park's Certified Electrical Company

Water intrusion into electrical boxes is a common issue here, especially after heavy rains or from aging seals. Our detailed electrical inspection specifically checks for corrosion, compromised insulation, and moisture in outlets, panels, and junction boxes. Identifying these hazards early prevents short circuits, potential fires, and costly repairs, ensuring your home's electrical system remains safe and dry.

Absolutely. Given the prevalence of aluminum wiring in many Hanover Park homes built during certain eras, checking for it is a standard part of our inspection. We examine connections at outlets, switches, and the main panel for signs of overheating, oxidation, and improper terminations—common risks with aluminum. We then provide expert recommendations, which may include proper pig-tailing with approved connectors or other remediation to ensure safety.

The safest first step is to schedule a professional electrical inspection with us. Do not attempt to investigate or repair these issues yourself, as they can be dangerous. Our inspection will give you a clear, expert assessment of any hazards and outline the necessary, code-compliant solutions. This proactive approach gives you peace of mind and protects your home from the specific electrical risks we see in our area.
