Tri-Co Electric Co | Professional Electrical Company in Lexington, NC

Water intrusion is a common issue in our area, especially after heavy rains. Our electrical inspection includes a detailed check of all exterior outlets, their seals (GFCI protection), and the condition of the weatherproof covers. We identify any compromised outlets where moisture has entered, which can lead to short circuits, corrosion, and serious shock hazards. We'll recommend repairs or upgrades, like installing proper outdoor-rated, tamper-resistant GFCI outlets, to make your home safer and prevent future problems.

Absolutely. Frequent breaker trips in Lexington homes are often a sign of an overloaded panel, especially in older houses not designed for today's number of appliances and electronics. Our inspection involves testing the load capacity of your current panel, examining the circuit breakers for wear, and mapping your home's electrical usage. We can determine if your panel is simply outdated or if there's a faulty breaker or wiring issue. This gives you a clear understanding of whether you need a panel upgrade, additional circuits, or a simpler repair.

Our thorough inspection for Lexington residents is like a full health check-up for your home's electrical system. We examine the main service panel and breakers for safety and capacity, test all outlets for proper wiring and grounding (including GFCI and AFCI protection where needed), inspect visible wiring in attics and crawlspaces, and check all light fixtures and switches. We pay special attention to signs of the local issues we see often, like corrosion from moisture or overheating at connections. You'll receive a detailed report of our findings and prioritized recommendations for any necessary repairs or updates.
