FAQs

What's involved in a standard electrical inspection for a New York home?

Our comprehensive electrical inspection is designed for New York's older housing stock. We thoroughly examine your home's wiring, service panel, outlets, switches, and grounding systems. We pay special attention to common local issues like outdated knob & tube wiring, overloaded circuits, and the functionality of safety devices like GFCIs. The goal is to identify potential hazards, ensure code compliance, and provide you with a clear, prioritized list of recommendations for repairs or upgrades to keep your home safe and efficient.

My GFCI outlets keep tripping or won't reset. Is this a common problem in NYC, and can you fix it?

Yes, GFCI outlet failures are a frequent issue we address for New York homeowners, often due to moisture in older building materials, worn-out outlets, or underlying wiring faults. Our experienced electricians first diagnose the root cause—whether it's a faulty outlet, a wiring problem in the circuit, or moisture intrusion. We then provide a lasting repair, which may involve replacing the GFCI outlet, addressing any wiring issues, and ensuring the circuit is properly protected. Promptly fixing a malfunctioning GFCI is crucial for preventing electrical shock hazards in kitchens, bathrooms, and other damp areas of your home.
