Our inspection is tailored for the realities of older local homes. We go beyond a basic check to assess the capacity and condition of your electrical panel, the integrity of wiring and connections, the functionality of all grounding systems, and the safety of outlets throughout the house. The goal is to give you a clear, honest picture of your system's health and any upgrades needed for safety and reliability.
