Harris Construction & Electrical Service | Professional Electrical Company in Tuskegee, AL

DIY electrical work, while well-intentioned, often doesn't meet the National Electrical Code and can create serious fire or shock hazards. Our professional electrical inspection identifies any improper connections, overloaded circuits, or unsafe wiring practices specific to older homes in our area. We ensure everything is up to standard, giving you peace of mind and protecting your family and property.

Absolutely. A key part of our inspection involves evaluating your home's existing surge protection. We check your electrical panel, outlets, and grounding system. For homes in Tuskegee, where lightning is common, we often recommend and install whole-house surge protectors at the main panel. This provides a first line of defense, diverting massive voltage surges from lightning away from your wiring and expensive electronics before they can cause damage.

We specifically look for signs of past surge damage that can weaken your system over time, such as damaged wire insulation, corroded connections, or malfunctioning breakers and GFCIs. We also assess the integrity of your grounding rods, which are crucial for safely dispersing a lightning strike's energy. Identifying and repairing these issues proactively is far more cost-effective than dealing with a major failure after the next storm.
