Electrical Services Akron OH | Call Rafferty Electric

Our comprehensive electrical inspection in Akron homes specifically checks the wiring and load capacity for smart home devices. We identify issues like incompatible wiring, overloaded circuits from new tech additions, or improper connections that cause your smart lights, thermostats, or security systems to malfunction. We then provide a clear plan to correct these problems, ensuring your home automation works reliably and safely.

Akron's older homes, along with seasonal temperature shifts that cause materials to expand and contract, can lead to wiring connections becoming loose over time. This is a serious fire risk. During our detailed electrical inspection, we use thermal imaging and manual testing to pinpoint these loose connections at outlets, switches, and within your electrical panel that you can't see, allowing us to make secure repairs before they become a hazard.

Yes, flickering lights are a classic warning sign of a loose electrical connection or an overloaded circuit, both common issues we see in Akron. It's important not to ignore this. Our inspection will trace the source of the flicker—whether it's at a specific fixture, in the wiring, or at your main panel—and we'll securely fasten the connection or recommend an appropriate circuit upgrade to eliminate the danger and nuisance.
