We replace any compromised outlets with weather-resistant or GFCI models as needed, ensure proper sealing and drainage to prevent future issues, and check adjacent wiring for corrosion. This approach addresses the immediate risk and helps protect against moisture-related problems common in New York's varied climate and older infrastructure.
