Q&A
Can an electrical inspection detect problems like overheated outlets before they become dangerous?
Absolutely. During a comprehensive electrical inspection, our Atlas Electric technicians specifically check for signs of overheating at outlets, including discoloration, warmth, and loose connections. We use thermal imaging tools to spot hidden hot spots. Identifying and repairing these issues early is crucial for preventing electrical fires and protecting your Watauga home.
How do you inspect for rodent damage to electrical wiring in my attic or walls?
Rodent chewing is a common issue in our area. Our inspection process includes a visual check of accessible wiring in attics, crawl spaces, and basements for gnaw marks and nesting materials. We also look for unexplained circuit breaker trips, which can be a sign of damaged, exposed wires. If we suspect hidden damage, we can recommend safe methods to assess and repair the compromised wiring to restore safety.
What should I do if I notice a burning smell from an outlet in my Watauga home?
Safety first. Immediately turn off power to that circuit at your breaker panel if it's safe to do so, and unplug any devices. Do not use the outlet. This is a classic sign of an overheating or faulty connection, a serious fire hazard. Call Atlas Electric right away for an emergency inspection. We'll diagnose the cause—often loose wiring or a failing outlet—and perform the necessary repair to make your home safe again.
