Common Questions
How can an electrical inspection from Mike Handy prevent common NYC electrical issues?
Our electrical inspection is a comprehensive safety check designed for New York homes. We meticulously test for loose connections—a frequent cause of flickering lights and heat buildup in older wiring—and assess your breaker panel for dangerous overloads common in apartments with high power demands. This proactive service identifies risks before they cause outages or become fire hazards, giving you peace of mind.
I need to move a large piece of furniture in my apartment building. Can you help with disassembly?
Absolutely. Navigating narrow hallways, tight staircases, and elevators is a classic New York challenge. Our professional furniture disassembly service carefully breaks down your item, such as a bed frame or bookshelf, making it manageable to move safely through your building. We then reassemble it perfectly in your new space, protecting your furniture and your walls from damage during the transition.
My circuit breaker keeps tripping. Is this a sign of an overloaded panel, and can you fix it?
Frequent tripping is a classic symptom of an overloaded breaker panel, especially in NYC apartments where we often add more devices than older systems were designed for. Yes, we can fix this. We'll inspect your panel, identify if the issue is overload, faulty breakers, or another wiring problem, and provide a safe solution, which may involve upgrading your panel or adding dedicated circuits to handle modern electrical loads.
