JKO Electric - Arlington Heights's Licensed Electrical Company

Rodents, especially in attics and walls, often chew through wire insulation, creating serious fire and shock hazards. Our detailed electrical inspection includes a thorough visual check of accessible wiring in your attic, basement, and crawl spaces. We identify any compromised wires, assess the extent of the damage, and provide a clear plan for safe, permanent repair to bring your system back to code and ensure your family's safety.

Common signs include frequently tripped breakers, burning smells from outlets or switches, flickering lights, or discolored outlets. Attic wiring is particularly vulnerable due to temperature extremes and potential pest activity. An electrical inspection from JKO Electric allows us to safely trace the circuit, locate the exact point of the short, and determine if it's caused by damaged insulation, old wiring, or another fault. This prevents ongoing electrical problems and potential fire risks.

Absolutely. A pre-sale electrical inspection by JKO Electric provides peace of mind for both you and potential buyers. It proactively identifies issues like outdated wiring or hidden damage that could derail a sale. We provide a professional report detailing the system's condition, which can be a valuable negotiating tool and demonstrates responsible homeownership, making your property more attractive in the local market.
