Our inspection includes testing all outlets for proper function, checking for overheating signs like discoloration or warmth, and verifying correct wiring connections.

We identify the root cause and recommend solutions such as circuit upgrades or outlet replacements to eliminate risks.

Yes, preventive electrical inspections are recommended every 3-5 years for Hattiesburg homes, especially those over 20 years old.
