Boones Mill Electrician | Electrical Inspection & Surge Protection | Gencor & Associates

During an inspection for water intrusion, we carefully examine all outlets, especially those in kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and on exterior walls. We look for signs of corrosion, rust, or discoloration inside outlet boxes, check for proper GFCI protection in wet areas, and test for ground faults and compromised wiring insulation that could pose a serious fire or shock risk in your home.

Our inspections include evaluating your home's entire electrical service panel, grounding system, and any existing surge protection. We identify if your home is properly grounded—a critical defense—and check for outdated wiring or panels that can't handle modern electrical loads, which often contribute to damaging internal surges. We'll recommend whole-house surge protectors or targeted upgrades to shield your appliances.

Yes, absolutely. Water and electricity are a dangerous combination. Even a small leak can compromise wiring over time. For safety, avoid using the outlet and turn off power to that circuit at your breaker panel if you can do so safely. Then, contact us for a prompt inspection. We can assess the damage, make necessary repairs to prevent mold or fire, and ensure the area is properly sealed and protected against future moisture.
