Kirkwood & Hunter - Houston's Certified Electricians

A professional electrical inspection from Kirkwood & Hunter assesses your home's main service panel, existing circuits, and overall capacity. Many older Houston homes weren't wired for the high, sustained demand of an EV charger. We identify if your system can safely support the addition or if you need a dedicated circuit or panel upgrade, preventing dangerous overloads, tripped breakers, and potential fire hazards before you install your charger.

Houston's humidity and moisture are tough on GFCI outlets, which are designed to protect you from shock in areas like kitchens and bathrooms. Frequent trips or failures often signal underlying moisture intrusion, wiring degradation, or a faulty outlet. Our inspection tests every GFCI for proper function, checks for moisture damage in the box, and ensures correct wiring, fixing the root cause to restore reliable, life-saving protection where you need it most.

Our thorough inspection is tailored to local needs. We examine your service panel for corrosion and capacity, test all outlets (especially GFCIs) for safety and grounding, check wiring for wear or damage, assess circuits for overload risks (like from EV chargers), and inspect outdoor fixtures for weather-related issues. We provide a clear report with prioritized recommendations to enhance your home's safety and prepare it for Houston's electrical demands.
