Questions and Answers
Why might my outlets feel warm or hot to the touch in my Traverse City home?
An overheating outlet is a serious safety concern that we frequently address locally. It can be caused by loose wiring connections, an overloaded circuit, or outdated components that can't handle modern appliance loads. This is a common precursor to electrical fires. We recommend turning off power to that circuit and calling us immediately for a professional inspection and repair to ensure your home's safety.
What does your electrical inspection service cover?
Our thorough electrical inspections are designed to assess the safety and functionality of your home or business's electrical system. We check for code compliance, test outlets and switches, evaluate your electrical panel's capacity, inspect wiring conditions, and identify any potential hazards like overloaded circuits. This service is crucial before buying a home, after a major renovation, or if you're experiencing recurring electrical issues.
As a certified generator dealer, what brands do you install and service?
We are certified dealers and installers for both Briggs & Stratton and Generac standby generator systems. This certification means our technicians are factory-trained to properly size, install, and maintain these units for optimal performance and longevity. We handle the full process, from site assessment and permitting to professional installation and scheduled maintenance, ensuring your Traverse City property has reliable backup power during an outage.
