C & D Electric Company | Trusted Electrical Company in Crystal Springs, MS

Older homes often have aging wiring that can degrade or become unsafe. In our area, a common issue is rodent damage to insulation, which creates fire and shock hazards. A professional inspection identifies these hidden problems, like chewed wires or outdated circuits, allowing us to make repairs before they cause a short circuit or power failure.

Absolutely. During a comprehensive electrical inspection, our electricians meticulously check accessible wiring in attics, basements, and crawl spaces—common rodent pathways. We look for gnaw marks, damaged insulation, and nest materials that compromise safety. Finding and repairing this damage is crucial to preventing short circuits and potential electrical fires in your home.

First, ensure safety by turning off the power to the affected circuit at your breaker panel if you can safely do so. Then, contact C & D Electric immediately. Continuing to use a faulty circuit risks damage to appliances and fire. Our inspection will pinpoint the cause, whether it's damaged wiring, an overloaded circuit, or a faulty device, and we'll provide a lasting repair.
