B & K Electrical Contractors - Bryant's Top-Rated Electrical Services

Often, no. A general home inspection may note the presence of aluminum wiring, but it won't assess its condition or connections. Issues with improper grounding rods are almost always missed. Our specialized electrical inspection is a deep dive into your system's safety. We check for overheating at connections, verify correct retrofits, and test ground fault protection to identify the specific risks common in our area.

If our inspection finds unsafe aluminum wiring connections, we don't recommend a full rewire as the only solution. Our expert approach involves using federally recognized repair methods, such as COPALUM crimping or AlumiConn connectors, to 'pig-tail' the aluminum wires to safe copper wires at every outlet and switch. This permanent fix mitigates the fire risk and is a cost-effective way to bring peace of mind to Bryant homeowners.

Arkansas soil conditions and weather make a correct grounding system critical for safety. An improper or corroded grounding rod can fail during a lightning strike or power surge, allowing dangerous electricity to travel into your home. Our inspection measures your ground's resistance. If it's inadequate, we install new, code-compliant rods deep enough to ensure a reliable path to dissipate electrical faults, protecting your family and expensive electronics.
