Electrical Contractor Fairfield CT | Call Sherwood Electric

Many homes in our area built during certain periods may have aluminum wiring, which can pose a significant fire hazard over time due to connection failures. A professional inspection from Sherwood Electric can identify this and other age-related issues, like outdated panels or improper grounding, ensuring your family's safety and bringing your electrical system up to modern standards.

Absolutely. Fairfield's climate can lead to moisture intrusion in outdoor panels, basements, and crawl spaces. Water in an electrical box is a serious shock and fire hazard. Our inspection service meticulously checks for signs of corrosion, condensation, and past water damage. We then recommend and perform necessary repairs or upgrades, such as installing weatherproof enclosures, to prevent future risks.

Our thorough inspection covers all critical points of your home's electrical system. We check your main service panel for capacity and safety, test outlets for proper wiring and grounding, inspect for the presence of hazardous aluminum wiring, assess all electrical boxes for signs of water damage or overheating, and ensure smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are correctly placed and functional. We provide a detailed report with our findings and recommendations.
