Altman Electric - Brunswick's Certified Electricians

Our electrical inspections assess your entire system, including the breaker panel, to identify overload risks from outdated wiring or increased modern electrical demands. We check for proper amperage, correct circuit balancing, and signs of overheating. If needed, we can recommend upgrades like panel replacement or additional circuits to safely handle your home's load and prevent tripped breakers or fire hazards.

Common signs include chewed wire insulation (often seen in attics, crawl spaces, or behind appliances), unexplained circuit trips, flickering lights, or burning smells. Rodents like squirrels or rats are attracted to wiring materials and can cause short circuits or fire risks. Our inspections include checking vulnerable areas for damage and recommending protective measures like sealing entry points or using rodent-resistant wiring where appropriate.

Older homes in Brunswick often have outdated wiring that may not meet current safety codes or handle modern electrical loads. Combined with local factors like humidity and pest activity, this can lead to issues like corroded connections, insulation degradation, or hidden rodent damage. Our inspections identify these risks early, allowing for repairs or upgrades that improve safety, prevent outages, and extend your electrical system's lifespan.
