Roy Electric Company - Birmingham's Expert Electrical Services

Our electrical inspections include a thorough check of your home's grounding system, main service panel, and individual circuits. In Birmingham, we often find outdated panels or faulty wiring that can't properly handle voltage spikes, directing that excess energy into your appliances. We identify these weak points and recommend solutions like whole-house surge protectors or panel upgrades to safely divert surge energy and protect your electronics.

Birmingham's high humidity is tough on outdoor electrical components, causing corrosion and compromising weatherproof seals. A standard part of our inspection is testing all exterior outlets for proper Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) function and watertight integrity. We replace corroded outlets with weather-resistant models rated for our climate and ensure they are correctly installed to prevent moisture intrusion, shock hazards, and costly replacements.

We conduct a neighborhood-focused inspection, paying special attention to issues common in our area. This includes checking for aluminum wiring (common in some older Birmingham homes), ensuring your panel can handle modern appliance loads, verifying all outdoor and bathroom outlets are GFCI-protected against moisture, and assessing the overall system's age and condition to prevent fire risks and ensure reliable power for your family.
