Q&A
Why is a professional electrical inspection important after a DIY repair attempt in my Mattoon home?
DIY electrical work often misses critical safety codes, which can create hidden fire hazards or shock risks. Our professional electricians perform a thorough inspection to identify any improper wiring, overloaded circuits, or faulty connections. This ensures your home's electrical system is safe, reliable, and up to local Mattoon and national electrical codes, giving you peace of mind.
Can an electrical inspection help prepare my home for Central Illinois storms?
Absolutely. A pre-storm electrical inspection from L Basham Electric can identify vulnerabilities like old wiring, insufficient grounding, or a faulty main panel that are more likely to fail during severe weather. By addressing these issues proactively, we can help minimize the risk of power surges, outages, or electrical fires when storms hit the Mattoon area.
What should I do if I have a power outage after a storm, even when my neighbors' power is back on?
This often indicates an issue isolated to your home's electrical system, such as a tripped main breaker, damaged weatherhead, or faulty wiring. For your safety, contact L Basham Electric for an inspection. Our local electricians can safely diagnose the problem, repair any storm damage, and restore your power without risking further damage or personal injury.
