Tru Electric - Alpharetta's Certified Electricians

Rodents like squirrels and mice are a common issue in our area and can chew through insulation, exposing wires and creating serious fire hazards. During a Tru Electric inspection, our technicians specifically check attics, crawl spaces, and wall voids for signs of pest activity and damage. We can identify compromised wiring early, recommend safe repairs, and suggest preventative measures to protect your home's electrical system.

Homes of this age often have wiring that may not meet modern safety standards or handle today's electrical loads. Our inspection will thoroughly evaluate your electrical panel, outlets, switches, and the overall wiring condition. We'll check for outdated materials like aluminum wiring or insufficient grounding, test for overloaded circuits, and assess if your system can safely support appliances like HVAC units and home offices. This gives you a clear picture of your home's electrical health and any needed upgrades.

Be alert for warning signs like frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering lights, a burning smell from outlets, or visibly chewed wires or nesting materials. For aging systems, you might notice outlets that are warm to the touch, lack of GFCI protection in bathrooms/kitchens, or an inability to run multiple appliances without issues. If you notice any of these, it's time for a professional Tru Electric inspection to diagnose and address the problem safely.
