In many Philly homes, older wiring isn't rated for the constant motion and load of a fan, which can lead to overheating and failure. We'll identify any undersized wires, improper connections, or lack of proper bracing in the ceiling joist, ensuring any new or existing fan is safe and secure.

Yes, water intrusion in outlets is a serious safety hazard that can lead to short circuits, shock risk, and fire. Philadelphia's weather makes this a common concern. Our inspection includes testing all exterior, garage, and basement outlets with specialized equipment to detect moisture damage and faulty Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection, which is crucial in damp areas. We'll identify compromised outlets and recommend repairs or upgrades to waterproof, code-compliant models to keep your home safe.
