Questions and Answers

What does a professional electrical inspection involve for my Philadelphia home?

Our electrical inspections are thorough examinations of your home's wiring, panels, outlets, and safety systems. We identify potential hazards like outdated components, overloaded circuits, or improper DIY repairs—common issues in older Philadelphia homes. The inspection provides a clear report on your system's condition and any necessary repairs or upgrades to ensure safety and compliance with local codes.

I think a previous DIY repair or damaged underground cable is causing problems. Can you help?

Absolutely. We frequently address these exact issues in Philadelphia neighborhoods. Our team can safely diagnose problems stemming from amateur electrical work or compromised underground cables, which are prone to damage from weather and aging infrastructure. We'll trace the fault, explain the cause, and provide a reliable, code-compliant repair to restore safe, consistent power to your home.

Do you have experience with commercial electrical systems, like in restaurants?

Yes, restaurant electrical work is a specialty of ours. David Simpson Electric has completed total installations for many well-known eateries in Philadelphia and the suburbs. We understand the unique power, safety, and equipment demands of commercial kitchens and dining spaces, ensuring your system is efficient, up to code, and supports your business operations reliably.
