Borrell Electric Co - Tampa's Experienced Electrical Contractor

Yes, absolutely. During our electrical inspection, we specifically check for signs of moisture intrusion, corrosion, and ground faults that commonly indicate water-damaged underground cables—a frequent issue in our area. We assess the integrity of your outdoor conduits and junction points to identify vulnerabilities before they lead to outages or safety hazards.

Our inspection includes a detailed evaluation of your home's surge protection. We check your main electrical panel for proper surge suppression devices and test your outlets for correct grounding. We can identify if your current system is inadequate and recommend upgrades, such as whole-house surge protectors, to shield your expensive appliances from the voltage spikes common in our local grid.

Between professional inspections, be alert for warning signs like frequently tripping breakers (especially after rain), flickering lights, buzzing from outlets, or appliances malfunctioning after a storm. These can indicate underlying water damage or inadequate surge protection. If you notice these issues, it's wise to schedule an inspection with us promptly to prevent further damage.
