In Philadelphia's attics, heat and past DIY repairs often cause problems. Our inspection focuses on finding overloaded circuits, damaged insulation from pests or heat, improper splices, and outdated wiring unable to handle modern loads. We identify the specific fault and recommend upgrades, like AFCI protection, to prevent future shorts and fire hazards.

Older Philly homes frequently have outdated wiring, like knob-and-tube in attics, and undocumented repairs to underground feeds. Our inspection provides a clear report on system safety, code compliance, and potential costly issues—like failing underground cables—giving you peace of mind and negotiating power before you finalize your purchase.
