Rolling Meadows Electrician | Electrical Inspections & Repair | Armstrong Electric

Absolutely. Our comprehensive electrical inspections are designed to identify signs of moisture intrusion that aren't always visible, such as corrosion inside your electrical panel or outlets, which is a common issue in our area. We check for compromised insulation and test for ground faults that can result from past water damage, providing a clear report and recommendations to make your system safe.

An inspection for aluminum wiring focuses on connection points at outlets, switches, and the main panel. We look for signs of overheating like discoloration, flickering lights, or warm faceplates, which indicate loose connections—a major fire hazard with older aluminum systems. Our inspection will assess the condition of these connections and recommend appropriate remediation, such as COPALUM crimping or complete replacement, to ensure safety.

The repair plan depends on the extent of the damage. For minor cases, we may need to replace corroded breakers, wiring, and the affected box, ensuring all new components are properly rated and sealed. In severe situations, a full panel upgrade and rewiring of affected circuits might be necessary to eliminate all compromised components. We'll provide a transparent quote and explain all steps to secure your home's electrical system against future issues.
