Q&A
What should I do if I notice an outlet in my Dartmouth home feels hot or loose?
An overheated or loose outlet is a common but serious safety concern in older Dartmouth homes, often indicating faulty wiring or an overloaded circuit. It's important to stop using that outlet immediately and contact a professional. Brian Matheson Electrical can perform a thorough inspection to diagnose the root cause, which is often a loose connection or outdated wiring, and provide a safe, lasting repair to prevent potential fire hazards.
Do you handle the removal of old knob-and-tube wiring?
Yes, we specialize in updating older electrical systems, including the complete removal and replacement of outdated knob-and-tube wiring. This type of wiring, common in many historic South Coast homes, lacks a ground wire and can become brittle, posing a safety risk. Our team safely removes it and installs modern, code-compliant wiring to improve your home's safety, functionality, and insurability.
Can you install an electric vehicle charging station at my home?
Absolutely. We provide professional EV charging station installation for Dartmouth residents. Our process begins with an assessment of your home's electrical panel to ensure it can handle the added load. We then handle the full installation, from the necessary service upgrades or panel work to mounting the unit and ensuring it's properly permitted and code-compliant, so you can charge your vehicle safely and efficiently at home.
