Shady Lake Electric - Columbus's Licensed Electrical Services

Our electrical inspection specifically checks outdoor outlets for signs of corrosion, which is common here due to humidity and temperature swings. We test for proper grounding, look for moisture damage, and ensure GFCI protection is working to prevent shocks and potential failures, keeping your outdoor spaces safe and functional.

Signs include flickering lights, tripped breakers, or a burning smell, especially in attics or crawl spaces. During our inspection, we carefully examine accessible wiring in these vulnerable areas for chew marks, nesting materials, and insulation damage. We identify compromised circuits before they can cause a short or fire, and recommend solutions like sealing entry points and repairing the wiring.

Older homes often have outdated wiring that may not handle modern electrical loads and can be more susceptible to the local issues we see, like rodent damage and corrosion. Our inspection provides a complete safety assessment, checking the panel, circuits, and all outlets to ensure your home's electrical system is not only safe but also adequate for your current and future needs.
