Frequently Asked Questions

What is involved in a standard electrical inspection for my Pittsburgh home?

Our thorough electrical inspection involves a licensed electrician checking your home's main service panel, wiring, outlets, switches, and grounding systems for safety and code compliance. We pay close attention to common local issues like signs of overheating at outlets or the condition of older wiring. The goal is to identify any potential hazards, such as overloaded circuits or damaged components, and provide you with a clear, prioritized report and recommendations to ensure your electrical system is safe and reliable.

We're adding a room to our older Pittsburgh home. What should we know about the wiring?

When adding onto an older Pittsburgh home, the existing electrical panel and wiring often need an upgrade to handle the increased load safely. Our process starts with evaluating your current panel's capacity. We then design and install new, code-compliant wiring for the addition, ensuring it integrates properly with your home's system. We also address any related issues we find, like outdated wiring in the existing structure, to prevent future problems and ensure the entire system operates safely and efficiently.

My outdoor outlets keep tripping, and some feel warm. Is this a common issue in Pittsburgh, and how can you help?

Yes, overheated or frequently tripping outdoor outlets are a common issue in our climate, often due to moisture intrusion, aging wiring, or the added demand of landscape lighting and tools. We diagnose the specific cause, which could range from damaged underground cables to a faulty GFCI outlet. Our solution typically involves repairing or replacing the affected wiring and outlets with weather-resistant, code-compliant components. We can also assess your overall outdoor electrical needs for features like landscape lighting or hot tubs to ensure everything is installed safely for long-term durability.
