When Should You Schedule an Electrical Inspection?
It’s a good idea to have an electrical inspection performed:
-
Before buying or selling a home
-
Before completing major renovations or adding large appliances
-
If your home is over 30 years old
-
After major weather events like storms or floods
-
If you notice recurring electrical issues (like frequent breaker trips or flickering lights)
If you're unsure when your home was last inspected
A small investment in an inspection today can prevent much larger repair bills—or safety risks—tomorrow.
