Electrical Company Chico CA | Call Huggitt Electric

Chico's rodent population can chew through wiring insulation in attics and walls, creating serious fire and shock hazards that often go unnoticed. Our thorough electrical inspection includes a detailed visual check of accessible wiring in these vulnerable areas. We look for telltale signs of gnawing, nesting materials, and damaged insulation. Identifying and repairing this damage early can prevent electrical shorts, power outages, and potential fire risks, keeping your family and home safe.

Absolutely. Many older Chico homes have breaker panels that weren't designed for today's high electrical demand from multiple devices, AC units, and appliances. Constant tripping is a key warning sign of an overloaded or aging system. Our electrical inspection includes testing your panel's capacity, evaluating the circuit load, and checking for signs of wear or heat damage. We'll provide a clear assessment of whether your panel needs an upgrade, additional circuits, or if the issue lies elsewhere in your home's wiring.

Our standard inspection is tailored to common Chico issues. We comprehensively evaluate your main service panel, circuit breakers, and wiring throughout the home. We specifically check for overloaded circuits, test GFCIs and AFCIs (crucial for safety), inspect for rodent-related damage in vulnerable areas, and assess the overall condition of your system against current safety codes. You'll receive a detailed report with photos and prioritized recommendations, so you understand exactly what's needed to ensure your home's electrical safety and reliability.
