Frequently Asked Questions
My Niantic home has flickering lights. Is this a serious issue, and what's the likely cause?
Flickering lights in older shoreline homes are often a sign of loose wiring or faulty connections, which can be a fire hazard. This is a common issue we see locally. Sacks Electric can perform a thorough electrical inspection to pinpoint the cause, whether it's at the fixture, in the switch, or within your home's main panel, and provide a safe, permanent repair to ensure your family's safety.
I'm concerned about aluminum wiring in my home. Can you inspect and make it safe?
Absolutely. Aluminum wiring, common in homes built from the mid-1960s to late 1970s, requires special attention to prevent overheating and fire risks. Sacks Electric offers expert electrical inspections specifically for this hazard. We can identify problem areas and perform safe, professional repairs or installations using approved methods like COPALUM crimps or AlumiConn connectors to bring your Niantic home up to modern safety standards.
Can you install new light fixtures and ensure they don't have wiring problems?
Yes, professional light fixture installation is one of our core services. For homeowners dealing with flickering lights or older wiring, proper installation is critical. Our electricians don't just hang the fixture; we check the existing box and wiring for safety, ensure all connections are secure and correct (especially important with aluminum wiring), and test the circuit. This guarantees your new fixtures work perfectly and safely from day one.
