Ohio Valley Electric - Martins Ferry's Professional Electrical Contractor

Our detailed electrical inspection includes checking your home's entire system for vulnerabilities that can lead to surge damage. We specifically examine your service panel, grounding, and wiring to ensure they can properly dissipate excess voltage, which is common in our area. We'll also advise on the installation of surge protectors at key points to safeguard your expensive electronics and appliances, providing a local solution to a frequent local problem.

Common signs include frequent circuit breaker trips, tingling sensations from appliances, or non-functional outlets. During our electrical inspection, we use specialized equipment to test the integrity of your home's grounding rods, connections, and the grounding path within your electrical panel. Ensuring proper grounding is crucial for safety in our community, as it directs dangerous electrical faults safely into the earth, preventing shock hazards and fire risks.

Older homes in our region may have outdated wiring or DIY repairs that don't meet current safety codes. Our inspection provides a clear, expert assessment of the electrical system's condition, identifying issues like aluminum wiring, insufficient capacity, or faulty grounding that could affect your safety, insurance, and the home's value. It gives both buyers and sellers peace of mind and can prevent unexpected repair costs down the line.
