Cornerstone Electric | Reliable Electrical Repair in Edgewood, WA

Many older homes in our area may have outdated or DIY wiring that doesn't meet modern safety standards. An inspection can reveal improper grounding or the absence of essential GFCI outlets in wet areas like kitchens and bathrooms, which are common causes of electrical hazards. Our inspection ensures your system is safe for your family and compliant with current codes.

We test every GFCI outlet for proper function, including its trip time and reset capability. We also verify they are installed in all required locations—like near sinks, in garages, and outdoors—as per the National Electrical Code. If we find failures or missing GFCIs, we'll provide a clear report and recommend solutions to protect against shock hazards.

Absolutely. A key part of our inspection is testing your home's grounding system. Improper grounding, often found in older systems, can prevent circuit breakers from tripping during a fault, leading to fire risk, or can cause appliances to become electrified, posing a severe shock hazard. We identify these issues and explain the necessary repairs to ensure your home's electrical safety.
