FAQs

How can a whole-house generator help my Granite Bay home during wildfire season power shutoffs?

Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) are a reality in our area. A professionally installed whole-house generator by Don Craighead GBC automatically kicks in seconds after a grid outage, keeping your lights, refrigeration, medical equipment, and security systems running. This provides peace of mind, safety, and comfort for your family, ensuring your home remains functional during extended PSPS events common in our region.

Why do my GFCI outlets in the kitchen or bathroom keep tripping, and how can you fix it?

Frequently tripping GFCI outlets are a common issue in Granite Bay homes, often due to moisture, age, or a faulty appliance. As your local experts, we don't just reset the outlet. We perform a thorough diagnostic inspection to identify the root cause—whether it's a wiring fault, a failing GFCI device, or an external issue. We then provide a reliable repair or replacement to restore safe, code-compliant protection against electrical shocks in these critical wet areas of your home.

What's included in an electrical inspection, and why is it important for wildfire season preparedness?

Our comprehensive electrical inspection evaluates your entire system's safety and capacity. We check for faulty wiring, overloaded circuits, proper grounding, and the condition of your electrical panel—all potential fire hazards. Before wildfire season, this inspection is crucial. It ensures your home's electrical system is not a risk factor and can reliably support essential loads, including a backup generator if you choose to install one, keeping your family safe during PSPS events and year-round.
