Westwood Electric - Seattle's Certified Electrical Services

Absolutely. A thorough electrical inspection from Westwood Electric is the best way to diagnose recurring issues like ceiling fan failures. In many Seattle homes, this is often due to outdated wiring, improper installation, or a faulty connection in the ceiling box. Our inspection will pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's a simple wiring fault or a sign of a larger circuit issue—so we can make a safe, lasting repair to get your fan working reliably again.

Yes, you should. A GFCI outlet that won't reset is a common issue in Seattle homes and is a critical safety feature, especially in wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens. This often indicates a ground fault, moisture damage, or a wiring problem downstream on the circuit. Our electrical inspection will safely identify the root cause, replace the faulty outlet if needed, and ensure all your GFCI protection is functioning correctly to prevent electrical shock hazards.

An electrical inspection provides a complete health check for your home's wiring system. For older Seattle homes, wiring can degrade or become insufficient for modern electrical loads, leading to the very issues you mentioned—fan failures and GFCI trips. Our inspection assesses the entire system's safety and capacity, identifying worn components, overloaded circuits, and outdated wiring before they cause a failure or become a fire risk. It's a proactive step to ensure your home's electrical system is safe, reliable, and up to current codes.
