Common Questions

After hurricane damage, what electrical repairs are most urgent for my Winston-Salem home?

Safety is the top priority. The most urgent repairs typically involve inspecting and repairing your electric panel and circuit breakers, which can be compromised by water and debris. We'll also check for damaged wiring in attics or walls that could cause short circuits or fire hazards. Our immediate focus is to secure your home's electrical system to prevent further damage or risk before addressing less critical issues like non-functioning outlets or fixtures.

What are the signs of a short circuit in my attic wiring, and how do you fix it?

Common signs include frequent circuit breaker trips, burning smells near outlets, flickering lights, or discolored/switched outlets. In Winston-Salem's older homes, attic wiring can degrade or be damaged by pests or heat. Our repair process involves safely isolating the affected circuit, inspecting the attic wiring for damage or faulty connections, and replacing the compromised wire. We then test the entire circuit to ensure the short is resolved and your system is safe.

Can you perform an electrical inspection to prevent problems after a storm season?

Absolutely. A proactive electrical inspection is one of the best ways to protect your home. We'll thoroughly check your electric panel, circuit breakers, wiring (especially in vulnerable areas like the attic), outlets, and grounding system for any weaknesses or wear that could fail during severe weather. This allows us to make repairs or reinforcements—like panel upgrades or wire installation/replacement—before the next storm hits, giving you peace of mind.
