Davis H Elliot Co - Lexington's Local Electricians

Yes, while sometimes caused by a loose bulb, persistent flickering can indicate a more serious problem like faulty wiring, an overloaded circuit, or a poor connection at the fixture. These issues are common in older Lexington homes and can be a fire hazard. An electrical inspection from Davis H Elliot Co can safely diagnose the cause and recommend the right fix to keep your home safe.

GFCI outlets are designed to trip and cut power when they detect a ground fault, which is a shock hazard. Frequent tripping in areas like kitchens and bathrooms often points to moisture exposure, a faulty appliance, or wiring issues within the circuit itself. Our electricians can perform an inspection to pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's a simple fix or a sign of a deeper electrical problem in your home.

Our comprehensive inspection reviews your home's entire electrical system. We check the service panel for proper amperage and safety, test outlets and switches (including GFCIs), examine wiring for wear or code violations, and assess the grounding system. This is especially valuable for identifying the hidden causes of common local issues like flickering lights, giving you a clear report on your home's electrical health and any recommended repairs.
