Frequently Asked Questions
My Smyrna home had storm surge issues. What should an electrical inspection check for?
After storm surges, water can damage wiring, panels, and outlets, creating shock and fire risks. A professional inspection from Hufford's will thoroughly check for corrosion in your panel, test GFCI and AFCI protection, assess moisture damage in outdoor and basement wiring, and ensure all systems are grounded and safe. This proactive check prevents future failures and keeps your home secure.
Can you fix improper DIY wiring I found in my older Smyrna house?
Absolutely. We frequently correct unsafe DIY work, like overloaded circuits, loose connections, or incorrect wire gauges. Our electricians will safely replace or rewire the problematic sections, bring everything up to current National Electrical Code standards for Delaware, and ensure your breaker panel can handle the load. This eliminates fire hazards and provides peace of mind.
I need more outlets for modern devices. What's involved in a professional outlet installation?
We assess your existing circuit capacity to ensure it can safely handle the added load. Our installation includes adding new, code-compliant outlets (often with USB ports), properly securing wiring in wall boxes, and installing Tamper-Resistant Receptacles (TRR) for safety, especially in homes with children. For areas like kitchens or outdoors, we install dedicated GFCI outlets for protection against moisture, a common concern in our coastal climate.
