Q&A

My GFCI outlets keep tripping or my electrical panel feels warm. What should I do?

These are common safety concerns we see in Corning homes. A frequently tripping GFCI often points to a ground fault or moisture issue, which needs immediate professional diagnosis. An overheating panel is a serious fire hazard and can indicate an overloaded circuit, loose connections, or an outdated system. For your safety, we recommend turning off power to the affected area and contacting us right away. We'll perform a thorough inspection, identify the root cause—whether it's a simple outlet repair or a more complex panel upgrade—and provide a clear, reliable solution to restore safety to your home.

What's involved in installing an electric vehicle charging station at my Corning home?

Installing an EV charger is more than just mounting a unit on the wall. It requires assessing your home's existing electrical capacity, often at the main service panel, to ensure it can handle the new load safely. Our process includes a detailed site evaluation, obtaining any necessary permits, and installing a dedicated circuit with the proper wire gauge and circuit breaker. We focus on a clean, functional installation that integrates well with your home's aesthetics and electrical system. Given our experience with panel upgrades and new installations, we can handle the entire project from planning to the final inspection, ensuring your charger is both safe and ready for daily use.

Can you help with updating the lighting and outlets in my older Corning home?

Absolutely. Many homes in our area have electrical systems that could use an update for both safety and modern convenience. We commonly handle projects like replacing outdated two-prong outlets with safer GFCI models, upgrading light fixtures, and adding new outlets where they're needed most. Our approach combines necessary electrical repairs with an eye for clean, thoughtful installation. We understand that preserving the character of your home is important, and we work to ensure new electrical work is both highly functional and aesthetically integrated, whether it's a simple fixture swap or a more comprehensive rewiring project.
