Electrical Company Poughkeepsie NY | Call O'shea Electl Contractors

Absolutely. A comprehensive electrical inspection by O'Shea Electrical Contractors includes checking all fixtures, including ceiling fans. In Poughkeepsie's older homes, improper or aged wiring for ceiling fans is a common safety issue. We'll test the connections, inspect the wiring in the junction box, and ensure the fan is properly grounded and supported to prevent fire hazards or malfunctions.

For older Poughkeepsie buildings, our inspection focuses on the condition of knob-and-tube or early aluminum wiring, outdated fuse boxes, insufficient grounding, and overloaded circuits. We check for brittle insulation, improper modifications, and ensure your system can handle modern electrical loads. Identifying these aging components is crucial for preventing outages and ensuring your family's safety.

A recurring problem, like a fan that wobbles, hums, or trips a breaker, often points to a deeper wiring issue rather than just the fixture itself. Our inspection will trace the circuit back to the panel, checking for loose connections, faulty switches, or overloaded lines specific to your home's wiring. This ensures the repair is permanent and addresses the root cause, not just the symptom.
