Fred J Hiemer & Son - Tenafly's Certified Electricians

Absolutely. Flickering lights in historic Tenafly homes often point to outdated wiring, a failing connection, or an overloaded circuit. Our thorough electrical inspection meticulously checks your entire system to pinpoint the exact cause, whether it's in a specific fixture, a switch, or the main panel. Identifying and fixing this issue not only restores proper lighting but also prevents potential fire hazards.

Short circuits in aging homes are often caused by deteriorated wire insulation or faulty connections. Our inspection involves a detailed visual and testing examination of your wiring, outlets, and breaker panel. We look for signs of wear, overheating, and improper installations that are common precursors to shorts. By proactively identifying these risks, we can recommend targeted repairs or upgrades to eliminate the danger before it causes a power outage or damage.

When we perform an inspection, we act as your home's electrical detective. We'll test all outlets and switches, inspect your main service panel and circuit breakers for proper function, check grounding systems, and evaluate the condition of visible wiring. For Tenafly residents, we pay special attention to areas known to age in older constructions. You'll receive a clear, written report of our findings with plain-English explanations and prioritized recommendations to ensure your home's safety.
