Electrical Repair Rochester NY | Call Unified Electric

Many of Rochester's beautiful older homes still have original wiring, like knob-and-tube, which wasn't designed for today's power demands. Our inspection identifies outdated systems, overloaded circuits, and insulation wear that can be fire hazards. It's a critical step to ensure your family's safety and plan for necessary upgrades to support modern appliances and electronics.

Yes, absolutely. While we can't see the cable itself, our inspection includes testing the main service entry point. We look for signs of damage, such as flickering lights when it's wet outside, frequent breaker trips, or voltage drops, which often point to deteriorating underground cables—a common issue in our area due to soil conditions and freeze-thaw cycles.

We provide a detailed, prioritized report. For immediate safety hazards, we'll explain the urgency. For general aging systems, we'll outline a clear plan for upgrades, like rewiring a section or replacing the service panel. Our goal is to give you a roadmap to a safer, more reliable electrical system without pressure, using materials and methods suited for Rochester homes.
