During a thorough inspection, our electricians meticulously examine attics, crawl spaces, and behind walls for signs of rodent activity, such as chew marks on wire insulation, nesting materials, or exposed conductors. We use specialized tools to assess the integrity of the wiring. Identifying this common Fairfax issue early is crucial, as damaged wires can lead to short circuits, power outages, and even fire hazards.

A comprehensive electrical inspection includes evaluating your home's existing surge protection.
