Dave's Electric - Ship Bottom's Certified Electrical Company

Older homes in our area often have wiring that wasn't designed for today's electrical demands, leading to common issues like short circuits and panel overheating. Our comprehensive electrical inspection identifies outdated components, overloaded circuits, and potential fire hazards. It's a proactive step to ensure your family's safety and prevent costly emergency repairs down the line.

Absolutely. During our inspection, we meticulously evaluate your electrical panel—the heart of your home's system. We check for signs of corrosion (common in our salty air), proper amperage, loose connections, and whether it can safely handle your current usage. Catching an overworked panel early prevents dangerous overheating and potential failure, especially during peak summer months.

We systematically test circuits and examine wiring for fraying, improper splices, or damage that could lead to a short circuit—a frequent issue in aging wiring. We also check that GFCIs are installed and functioning correctly in damp areas like kitchens and bathrooms, which is crucial for safety in our shore environment. Our goal is to find and fix these risks before they trip your breaker or cause damage.
