Question Answers
My home in Metuchen has outlets that get wet during heavy rains. Can you help with this safety hazard?
Absolutely. Water intrusion in outlets is a serious safety concern common in our area. We can inspect your home's exterior outlets and any indoor locations prone to moisture. Our licensed electricians will replace the affected outlets with weather-resistant models and may recommend additional protective measures, like installing in-use covers or adjusting the home's exterior grading, to prevent future issues and ensure your family's safety.
We need to update the wiring in our older Metuchen home. What does that process involve?
Upgrading wiring in an older home is a common project we handle. Our process begins with a thorough inspection of your current electrical panel and wiring to identify any code violations or safety risks. Our team of licensed Master Electricians will then plan and execute a careful replacement, often working within walls and ceilings with minimal disruption. We ensure the new wiring meets current National Electrical Code standards and is capable of handling modern electrical loads for your appliances and devices.
Does Pereira Electric handle the electrical inspection for a home renovation or addition?
Yes, we provide comprehensive electrical inspection services. Our licensed professionals will review all new electrical work for your renovation or addition to ensure it complies with local Metuchen building codes and the National Electrical Code. We check for proper installation, grounding, and load capacity. As a fully insured company established in 1989, we provide detailed documentation from our inspection that you can submit to your local building department for permitting and approval.
