FAQs
How can I tell if rodents have chewed my home's wiring, and what should I do?
Signs include flickering lights, outlets that don't work, or a burning smell near walls. Rodent damage is a serious fire hazard. If you suspect it, contact us immediately for a safety inspection. Our electricians will locate and safely repair or replace the compromised wiring, often recommending protective conduit to prevent future problems common in our Appleton area.
My outdoor outlet stopped working after winter. Can Ascheman Electric fix it?
Yes, absolutely. Freeze-thaw cycles and moisture can damage outdoor outlets, a frequent issue here in Minnesota. We'll inspect the outlet and the connected wiring for water damage or corrosion. Our repair or replacement service includes installing a weatherproof, GFCI-protected outlet specifically rated for outdoor use to ensure safety and longevity against our local weather.
Can upgrading my electrical panel help prevent problems from old or damaged wiring?
Yes. An outdated or damaged panel can't properly manage modern electrical loads or safely handle faults from compromised wiring. Upgrading to a new panel with modern safety breakers (like AFCIs) provides a stronger foundation for your home's entire system. It adds a crucial layer of protection, helping to prevent electrical fires that can start from hidden damage like chewed wires.
