Questions and Answers

My Ithaca home's lights flicker and breakers trip often. Could this be related to older wiring or damaged local cables?

Yes, this is a common issue we see in Ithaca. Older homes often have wiring that can't handle modern electrical loads, leading to short circuits and frequent breaker trips. Additionally, the local soil conditions can contribute to damaged underground service cables feeding the home. John Mills Electric performs thorough inspections to pinpoint the exact cause—whether inside your walls or at the service entry—and provides clear repair options to restore safe, reliable power to your home.

What does an electrical inspection involve, and when should I schedule one for my Ithaca property?

Our electrical inspection is a comprehensive safety check of your property's wiring, panels, outlets, and grounding systems. For Ithaca homes, we recommend an inspection if your system is over 25 years old, before a major renovation, or if you're experiencing recurring issues. This is especially important in our area to identify vulnerabilities related to aging infrastructure or environmental factors. The inspection helps ensure your system meets current safety codes and can reliably support your household's needs.

Are your installation and repair services covered by a warranty?

Yes. We stand behind our work with warranties on many of our installation and repair services. As a Qmerit-certified partner, we adhere to strict quality and safety standards. This certification, combined with our decades of local experience, means we provide durable solutions and will address any covered issues that arise post-installation, giving you peace of mind about the longevity of your electrical system.
