Question Answers
I'm noticing some outlets in my Cape home are warm or loose. Is this a common issue here, and can Metro help?
Yes, overheated or loose outlets are a frequent concern in older Cape Girardeau homes, often due to aging wiring or connections that have worked loose over time. This is a safety issue that should be addressed promptly. Our team can provide the correct replacement outlets, wiring, and connectors you need for a safe repair. For complex issues, we can recommend a trusted local electrician from our network and supply all the necessary materials, including those for AFCI/GFCI protection often recommended for modern safety standards.
Does Metro Electric Supply offer professional energy audits for homeowners?
Absolutely. We offer building energy audits to help Cape Girardeau residents identify where their home may be losing energy and money. Our audit can assess your lighting, insulation, appliance efficiency, and overall electrical system. Following the audit, we provide practical recommendations and supply the high-efficiency lighting fixtures, smart controls, and other electrical products needed to improve your home's energy performance, helping you save on utility bills.
Do you provide the materials for light fixture installation, or do you handle the installation as well?
We are your comprehensive source for both. Our Cape Girardeau showroom carries an extensive inventory of residential and commercial lighting fixtures. Our knowledgeable staff can help you select the right product and ensure you have all the necessary mounting hardware, bulbs, and wiring supplies. While we supply all the materials, we also work with a network of qualified local electricians who can perform the actual installation safely and to code, ensuring your new fixture is set up correctly.
