Electrical Services Ithaca NY | Call Matco Electric Co

Our thorough electrical inspections identify vulnerabilities in your home's wiring, grounding, and surge protection systems. We check for outdated components and recommend upgrades like whole-house surge protectors, which are especially important in Ithaca where aging infrastructure can lead to voltage spikes. This proactive approach safeguards expensive appliances like refrigerators, computers, and HVAC systems from costly surge damage.

Ithaca's humid summers and snowy winters create moisture that seeps into outdoor outlets, leading to corrosion and safety hazards. During our inspection, we examine all exterior outlets for weather damage, proper sealing, and GFCI protection. We'll recommend weatherproof covers, upgrade to corrosion-resistant models, or reposition outlets to prevent water exposure—keeping your outdoor spaces safe and functional year-round.

In Ithaca's historic homes, we focus on outdated knob-and-tube wiring, insufficient grounding, overloaded circuits, and improper outdoor wiring—all common culprits behind power surges and corrosion problems. We also check for DIY repairs that may not meet current codes. Our inspection provides a clear report with prioritized recommendations to modernize your electrical system for safety and reliability.
