Electrical Repair Springfield MO | Call Fitch Electric

Our inspections specifically evaluate your home's grounding system and the condition of your electrical panel, which are critical for diverting a lightning strike's massive energy safely into the ground. We check for proper surge protection devices and recommend whole-home surge suppressors if needed. This is especially important in our area, where frequent summer storms can cause sudden voltage spikes that damage appliances and electronics.

Common signs in older homes include frequently tripping breakers, flickering lights, outlets that feel warm, a burning smell, or a lack of modern three-prong (grounded) outlets. Many historic homes here still have original knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring, which can degrade and become fire hazards. Our inspection will assess the entire system's safety and capacity for today's electrical demands.

Our comprehensive inspection covers your main service panel, circuit breakers, wiring throughout the home, all outlets and switches, grounding systems, and any visible signs of wear or improper DIY modifications. We provide a detailed report outlining any safety issues, code violations, or inefficiencies, along with prioritized recommendations for repairs or upgrades to ensure your family's safety and system reliability.
