Thos W Cox Elec Co | Trusted Electrical Company in Boston, MA

In Boston's climate, moisture intrusion is a real concern. Our electrical inspection specifically checks for corrosion, compromised insulation, and rust inside your panel—common signs of water damage. We'll identify any immediate safety hazards, like short-circuit risks, and recommend repairs or a panel replacement to prevent future failures and ensure your home's electrical system remains safe and reliable.

Absolutely. Many smart home malfunctions in older Boston homes stem from outdated wiring that can't handle the stable, low-voltage power these devices require. Our inspection evaluates your home's circuitry, grounding, and voltage consistency. We can pinpoint if flickering lights or device resets are due to faulty wiring, insufficient circuits, or poor connections, and provide the expert upgrade needed for a seamless smart home.

Beyond checking for code compliance, we focus on Boston-specific issues. We examine your electrical panel for signs of moisture or corrosion from humidity, test outlets for proper grounding (critical for safety), inspect wiring in attics and basements for damage, and assess whether your system can support modern loads like smart home hubs. Our goal is to give you a clear picture of your home's electrical health and any needed updates.
