Rodents, like squirrels or mice common in our area, often chew through attic and wall wiring, which can create a serious fire hazard. Our thorough electrical inspection includes checking your attic, crawl spaces, and behind walls for any signs of this damage. We identify compromised wires, assess the risk, and provide a clear plan for safe repair or replacement to protect your home.

If you're experiencing flickering lights, tripped breakers, or a burning smell from your attic, it's crucial to act quickly. First, avoid using the affected circuit and turn off power at the breaker if it's safe to do so. Then, contact Barnes Electric immediately. Our electricians are experienced in safely troubleshooting and repairing attic short circuits in Mount Airy homes, preventing potential electrical fires.

Older homes in our community often have aging electrical systems that may not meet modern safety standards or could have unseen damage from pests or wear. Our pre-purchase inspection provides a detailed assessment of the entire system, identifying issues like outdated wiring, insufficient capacity, or rodent damage. This gives you the knowledge to make an informed decision and plan for any necessary upgrades for safety.
