Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my arc fault breaker keep tripping in my Gardner home?

Arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) are designed to detect dangerous electrical arcs, which are a common fire hazard in older wiring. In many Gardner homes, these sensitive breakers can trip due to aged insulation, loose connections, or appliances with motors. An electrical inspection from Leo Doucette can pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's a wiring issue or a specific appliance—and provide a safe, code-compliant fix to restore reliable power.

Can an electrical inspection find hidden short circuits in my older home?

Absolutely. Short circuits in older Gardner homes often occur behind walls where damaged or degraded insulation allows wires to touch. A professional electrical inspection involves systematically testing circuits, checking connections at outlets and switches, and examining the condition of your wiring. Leo Doucette's thorough inspection process is designed to locate these hidden hazards before they cause repeated breaker trips or pose a fire risk, giving you peace of mind.

What should I expect during an electrical inspection for my older house?

Leo Doucette will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your Gardner home's electrical system. This includes testing all circuits and breakers (including AFCIs), checking for proper grounding, inspecting wiring in the panel and at key outlets, and assessing the overall system load. The goal is to create a clear picture of your system's health, identify any immediate risks like short circuits or faulty breakers, and provide you with a straightforward plan for any necessary repairs or updates.
