Electricians Chicago IL | Call B&M Chicago Services

Our electrical inspection is a thorough assessment of your home's wiring, panels, outlets, and safety systems to ensure they meet Chicago's building codes and function properly. We check for issues like outdated components, improper installations, or hazards such as aluminum wiring, which is common in older Chicago homes. The inspection helps identify potential problems before they become serious, providing peace of mind and recommendations for any needed repairs or upgrades.

Aluminum wiring, often found in older Chicago homes built in the 1960s and 70s, can pose fire risks due to corrosion and loose connections. We address this by inspecting the wiring for signs of wear, using approved connectors or pigtailing methods to secure connections, and recommending upgrades to copper wiring if necessary. Our approach focuses on safety and compliance with local regulations to prevent hazards like flickering lights or electrical shorts.
