Certified Electrical Services in Warwick, RI 2889 - Relco

Absolutely. Many older homes in Warwick have outdated electrical systems that lack proper surge protection. During an inspection, we assess your entire system, including the main panel and individual circuits. We can identify if your home is vulnerable to surges and recommend solutions, such as installing whole-house surge protectors or upgrading your grounding system, to safeguard your appliances.

During our inspection, we look for telltale signs of short circuits common in older wiring, such as flickering lights, warm or discolored outlets, a burning smell from switches, and frequently tripped breakers. We use specialized equipment to trace the fault to its source, which is often aged or damaged insulation, and recommend the necessary repairs to eliminate this fire hazard.

We understand the specific challenges of knob-and-tube or older aluminum wiring found in many Warwick homes. Our inspection goes beyond a standard check; we evaluate the capacity of your existing system for modern electrical loads, check for improper DIY modifications, and ensure all connections are secure and up to current safety codes. This proactive approach directly addresses the root causes of short circuits and surge-related issues.
