Q&A
My electrical meter feels hot to the touch. Is this dangerous, and what should I do in Garland?

Immediately call JD&E Electric for a professional electrical inspection. Our licensed electricians can diagnose the root cause—often at the main panel or service lines—and perform the necessary circuit breaker or electric panel repair to restore safe operation and prevent potential fire risks.

From fixing miswired outlets to safely installing a new doorbell or light fixture, we ensure the work is done correctly and up to the strict standards required for your family's safety.
What's involved in an electrical inspection for an older home in Garland?
For older Garland homes, our comprehensive electrical inspection is a crucial safety check. We examine your main electric panel for wear, corrosion, and proper capacity, test all circuits and breakers, and inspect wiring throughout the house for deterioration or unsafe modifications (like knob-and-tube).
