Questions and Answers
My lights in my pre-war apartment keep flickering. Can you help?
Absolutely. Flickering lights in older NYC buildings are often a sign of aging or faulty wiring, which can be a fire hazard. Our service begins with a thorough electrical inspection to diagnose the root cause. We can then safely repair or replace the problematic wiring, light fixtures, or switches to restore safe, consistent lighting in your home.
I need a new dishwasher installed, but I'm worried about my old building's plumbing and electrical.
That's a common and valid concern in New York. Our appliance installation service is comprehensive. We don't just hook up the new unit; we assess the existing water lines, drain connections, and electrical outlet to ensure they meet current safety standards for the new appliance. If we find any issues with the aging plumbing or wiring during installation, we can provide the necessary repairs on the spot.
Can you repair a leak under my sink and check if it affected nearby wiring?
Yes, we can handle both. Plumbing leaks in tight spaces like under sinks can sometimes drip onto nearby electrical lines or outlets, creating a serious risk. Our combined plumbing and electrical expertise allows us to fix the leak at its source and then perform a safety check on any adjacent wiring or components to ensure your home remains safe from water damage and electrical shorts.
