Smithfield Electrician | Electrical Inspection & Repair | Thompson Electric

Yes, absolutely. Flickering lights are often a symptom of underlying issues like loose wiring connections, faulty fixtures, or overloaded circuits—common problems in older Smithfield homes. Our thorough electrical inspection is designed to pinpoint the exact cause, ensuring we can make the correct, safe repair to eliminate the flickering and prevent potential fire hazards.

Following a storm surge, our inspection focuses on safety first. We check for water damage in outlets, panels, and wiring, which can cause shorts, corrosion, and shock risks. We test all affected circuits, GFCIs, and major appliances to assess functionality and identify components that need repair or replacement to restore safe, reliable power to your Smithfield home.

We recommend a professional electrical inspection every 3-5 years for general safety and upkeep, especially in older homes. However, you should schedule one immediately if you experience frequent issues like flickering lights, tripping breakers, or after any significant event like a major storm surge. Proactive inspections help prevent emergencies and ensure your system handles local weather demands.
