Electrical Contractor San Antonio TX | Call Chavez Electric

Absolutely. Rodent damage to wiring is a common issue in San Antonio and a serious fire hazard. Our electricians perform thorough inspections to locate all compromised wires. We then safely remove the damaged sections and perform expert wire repair or complete re-installation, ensuring your system is up to code and protected. We can also advise on preventative measures to help deter future problems.

Lightning surges can damage circuits, outlets, and even your main electrical panel. First, check your circuit breakers for any that have tripped. If resetting them doesn't work, it's time to call us. Our electricians will diagnose the surge damage, which often requires outlet repair or replacement, and may involve circuit breaker or panel repair. We ensure your system is safely restored and can discuss surge protector installation to guard against future storms.

The best defense is a layered approach. We recommend a whole-house surge protector installed at your main electric panel—this is your first line of defense against lightning and grid surges. For further protection, consider point-of-use surge protectors for valuable electronics. During our electric inspection service, we can assess your current system's vulnerability and recommend the right solutions, including panel upgrades if needed, to give you peace of mind during storm season.
