Carl's Electric - Ballinger's Experienced Electrical Company

Loose connections in outlets or panels are a common issue here and can overheat, causing fire hazards. Our thorough electrical inspection includes thermal imaging and a hands-on check of all major connections to identify any that are loose, corroded, or showing signs of heat stress. We then securely tighten or replace them, preventing potential damage before it starts.

Typically, no. A general home inspection is a visual check, not an in-depth electrical analysis. Our specialized electrical inspection evaluates your entire system's vulnerability to surges, checks the condition of your main panel and grounding, and assesses whether you have adequate whole-house surge protection—a critical defense against our frequent West Texas storms.

First, check for obvious issues like tripped breakers, non-working outlets, or damaged appliances. However, lightning damage can be subtle. If you notice flickering lights, a burning smell, or electronics malfunctioning after a storm, shut off the affected circuit and call us immediately. Our inspection will find hidden damage to wiring or devices that could pose a safety risk.
