Fortin Electrical Co | Professional Electrical Repair in New Bedford, MA

Our comprehensive inspection is specifically tailored for historic properties. We meticulously check for outdated wiring, overloaded circuits, faulty connections, and insufficient grounding—common culprits behind the short circuits we often see in local homes. The inspection gives you a clear, prioritized report on any safety hazards and necessary upgrades to protect your home and family.

Signs of a damaged underground service cable include frequent tripping of your main breaker, flickering lights throughout the house, or a burning smell near the meter. As a local expert, Fortin Electrical uses specialized equipment to locate the fault precisely with minimal disruption to your yard. We then repair or replace the damaged section, ensuring a safe, durable, and code-compliant connection to the utility grid.

Many of our beautiful older homes still have original knob-and-tube or aging aluminum wiring, which can degrade and become hazardous over time. The best long-term solution is a professional safety evaluation. We can identify overloaded circuits, worn insulation, and improper modifications, then recommend targeted upgrades—like adding new circuits or rewiring key areas—to modernize your electrical system safely and affordably.
