Q&A
Can a standard electrical inspection identify problems with aluminum wiring in my Trivoli home?
Yes, absolutely. Our electric inspection service includes a specific check for aluminum wiring, which was commonly used in homes built between the mid-1960s and mid-1970s. We'll look for signs of overheating at connections and outlets—a common hazard with aluminum—and provide a detailed report on your home's safety, along with expert recommendations for remediation if needed.
My basement flooded and got water near the electrical panel. What should an inspection cover?
In this common Trivoli scenario, our inspection is critical. We'll thoroughly examine the main electrical panel, all affected circuits, outlets, and switches for moisture damage, corrosion, and compromised insulation. Safety is our top priority; we ensure all components are completely dry and safe before restoring power, and we replace any damaged parts to prevent future fire or shock risks.
If your inspection finds aluminum wiring, what are my options for making my home safe?
We offer several solutions tailored to your home and budget. The most comprehensive option is a complete rewiring with modern copper wiring. For a more targeted approach, we can install specially designed connectors (called COPALUM or AlumiConn) at every outlet and switch, which safely join aluminum wiring to copper devices. We'll explain all options clearly so you can make an informed decision for your family's safety.
