Question Answers
What's involved in a standard electrical inspection for my Kirkwood home?
Our thorough electrical inspection for Kirkwood homeowners includes checking your main service panel for safety and capacity, testing outlets and GFCIs, verifying grounding systems, and inspecting wiring in accessible areas like attics. We pay special attention to common local issues, such as signs of water damage around exterior boxes or storm-related wear, providing you with a clear, prioritized report on any needed repairs or updates to ensure your home's electrical system is safe and reliable.
How does Bigger Electric handle emergency calls after a storm causes a power issue?
We prioritize emergency calls from Kirkwood residents following storms. Our team is equipped to safely address common aftermath issues like tripped breakers, damage to exterior electrical boxes from wind or water, and partial power loss. We focus on restoring functionality and safety as quickly as possible, often providing temporary solutions if full repairs require utility involvement, ensuring your home is secure until permanent fixes can be made.
Do you service older homes in the area that might have outdated wiring?
Yes, servicing older homes is a common part of our work in Kirkwood. During an inspection, we carefully evaluate the existing system—such as knob-and-tube or older aluminum wiring—for safety and modern electrical demands. We provide straightforward recommendations, whether it's a targeted upgrade for a new appliance or a more comprehensive panel and circuit update, always aiming for solutions that respect your home's structure while bringing it up to current safety standards.
