Questions and Answers

How can you protect my Wilmington home's outdoor outlets from corrosion and salt damage?

We install weatherproof, corrosion-resistant outdoor outlets and covers specifically designed for our coastal climate. This service often involves upgrading the wiring and ensuring a proper seal to prevent moisture and salt air from causing damage, which is a common issue for homes in Wilmington.

What can be done to prevent lightning surge damage to my electrical panel and appliances?

We recommend and install whole-house surge protection devices at your main electrical panel. This is a critical defense for Wilmington homes, as it intercepts powerful voltage spikes from nearby lightning strikes before they can travel through your wiring and damage sensitive electronics, appliances, and your panel itself.

My lights are flickering after a storm. Could this be surge-related damage needing repair?

Yes, flickering lights can be a sign of surge damage to your wiring, fixtures, or even the circuit breaker. It's a common issue here after electrical storms. Our electricians can perform a thorough inspection to diagnose the problem, which may involve repairing damaged wires, outlets, or light fixtures to restore safe and reliable power.
