Burr & Tiegs Electrical Contracting | Local Electrical Company in Lakeland, FL

Hurricanes can cause hidden water damage to wiring and panels, creating serious fire and shock risks. A professional inspection by Burr & Tiegs identifies corrosion, compromised connections, and moisture damage that may not be immediately visible, ensuring your home's electrical system is safe to use before you fully restore power to all appliances and circuits.

Frequent tripping is often a sign that the GFCI outlet is working correctly and detecting a ground fault, which can be caused by moisture intrusion from hurricane rains. However, it could also indicate damaged wiring. We recommend a professional electrical inspection to pinpoint the cause—whether it's a wet outlet box, a faulty appliance, or storm-damaged wiring—and provide a safe, lasting repair.

Our Lakeland-focused inspection thoroughly evaluates your system for local hazards. We check for hurricane-related damage like corroded panels and compromised outdoor wiring, test all GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, and garages to ensure they trip correctly, and verify that your electrical grounding system is intact—a crucial defense against Florida's frequent lightning storms.
