B & O Electric Company: Certified Electricians Serving Riverdale 30274

Rodents often chew on wiring inside walls and attics, creating serious fire hazards and power outages. Our Riverdale electrical inspection includes a thorough check of accessible wiring, junction boxes, and insulation for signs of gnawing or nesting. We identify compromised wires before they fail, allowing us to repair the damage and recommend preventative measures like sealing entry points to protect your home.

Yes, an overheated outlet is a critical warning sign of a potentially dangerous electrical problem, such as a loose connection, overloaded circuit, or faulty wiring. This is a common issue we address in Riverdale. You should stop using that outlet immediately and contact us for an inspection. We will diagnose the root cause—often related to aging wiring or rodent damage—and make the necessary repairs to eliminate the fire risk.

Our general electrical inspection for Riverdale homeowners is a comprehensive safety check.
