Pittsburgh Electrical Inspections | Storm & Water Damage Safety | Hanlon Bill

Yes, absolutely. During a comprehensive electrical inspection, our licensed electricians specifically check for signs of water intrusion and corrosion in outlets and junction boxes—a common issue here due to our humid summers and basement dampness. We identify compromised wiring and components before they lead to shorts, shocks, or fire hazards, ensuring your system is safe and dry.

Our pre-storm electrical inspections assess the integrity of your main panel, grounding system, and external connections. We look for weaknesses that could cause failures during high winds, lightning, or heavy rain. By securing these components and identifying outdated elements, we help minimize the risk of prolonged outages and protect your appliances from surge damage when storms hit our area.

Once power is restored, our inspection focuses on safety. We check for hidden damage from power surges, water exposure, or fallen limbs that may have affected your wiring, outdoor receptacles, or panel. This is crucial to prevent future faults, ensure your GFCI outlets are functioning (vital for damp areas), and verify that your entire system is operating safely before normal use resumes.
