A closer look. A clearer plan.The clear answer
We examine accessible panels, breakers, wiring, outlets, switches, grounding, and protective devices. We use appropriate testing and infrared imaging to help evaluate concerns, then provide written findings with priorities and next steps. We confirm the inspection scope before the visit.
Often about two hoursTiming varies by property and scope.

What we inspect
An outlet, a breaker, and a ground connection each tell part of the story. We put the accessible evidence together.
We examine accessible equipment, signs of damage, breaker compatibility, connections, and labeling.
Panel access depends on safe conditions. We document access limits and explain any follow-up needed before further testing.
We review accessible wiring, splices, boxes, and visible changes from past projects.
Older wiring is evaluated by type and condition. Concealed wiring cannot be fully assessed without separately agreed access or further investigation.
We check accessible outlets and switches, test as appropriate, and review GFCI and AFCI protection.
We look beyond whether a device has power. Grounding, polarity, protection upstream, and the applicable requirements all matter.
We review accessible grounding and bonding connections that support the electrical system’s protective functions.
We identify missing or questionable connections and explain when testing or additional access is needed to complete the evaluation.
We distinguish observed installation concerns from possible upgrades and explain what may require correction.
The applicable rules depend on the installation and work involved. Our private assessment does not replace a local permit inspection.
We look for unusual surface heating on accessible equipment when conditions make the scan useful.
Loading, access, surface characteristics, and operating conditions affect what the scan can show. Findings need context and verification.
Inspection access and testing are agreed for your property. Leave electrical covers in place; our qualified team handles any safe removal and testing.

A different view of accessible equipment
Infrared imaging helps us look for unusual surface heating. We combine that evidence with the physical inspection and appropriate tests.

Review my visit brief ↓You do not need to identify electrical defects yourself. Use what is already in a report or tell us what you have noticed. Do not open equipment to complete this planner.
Share the home inspection report, flagged locations, and your inspection deadline. We can evaluate the electrical concerns and explain the repair scope for your discussion with your agent.
No topics selected yet. You can request an inspection even if you are unsure what to ask about.
Some selected topics can involve safety concerns. If these are current findings, call promptly to discuss them. For smoke, fire, or active arcing, move away and call 911.
This is a planning tool. Selections do not determine a code violation, inspection result, or the condition of a home.
For smoke, fire, or active arcing, move away and call 911. For unusual heat, a burning smell, repeated trips, or shocks, stop using the affected equipment and call promptly. Keep clear of exposed wiring.
Good reasons to take a closer look
Bring the home inspection report and your deadline. We can take a closer look at the electrical questions.
Understand the accessible wiring, panel condition, and work that may have been added over the years.
Start with the existing system before planning an EV charger, larger appliance, or renovation.
The report should make sense to you
We explain what we observed, where it is, and why it matters. You get a written record to discuss with your family, agent, or contractor.
The equipment or location and the concern found during the visit.
What needs prompt attention, further evaluation, or planning.
The recommended action, any access limits, and whether a separate repair scope is needed.
From first call to a practical plan
Share the address, known concerns, existing reports, and any deadline. We confirm inspection pricing and scope.
Our electrical team reviews the accessible system and performs the agreed tests using appropriate safety procedures.
You receive a written account of the concerns, their priority, next steps, and any inspection limits.
If repairs are needed, we discuss a separate scope and estimate, including permit requirements where applicable.
A little preparation helps. Send prior reports, arrange access, and tell us about equipment that cannot be interrupted. Leave all electrical covers in place. We will discuss any testing that could interrupt power before proceeding.

Let’s take a closer look
Tell us about the property, what prompted the call, and your timing. We’ll confirm the inspection scope, pricing, and availability.
Include the property address, your deadline, and known concerns. You can paste the planner’s visit brief into your project details. Submitting a request does not confirm an appointment.
Electrical inspection questions, answered
Scope, cost, timing, thermal imaging, and the difference between a condition assessment and a permit inspection.
Ask our electrical teamWe examine the accessible electrical panel, breakers, wiring, connections, outlets, switches, grounding, and protective devices. We use infrared imaging where conditions allow and provide written findings with priorities and next steps. We confirm the scope before the visit and identify areas that could not be inspected.
A general home inspection evaluates many systems, including electrical components. Our visit focuses on the electrical system, specific reported concerns, appropriate testing, and repair planning. It can supplement a home inspector’s report. The scope of each inspection depends on access, conditions, and the agreed service.
No. This is a private electrical condition assessment. A local building department inspects permitted work for its approval process. Our report does not replace a required permit inspection or guarantee approval. If corrections need permits, we explain that process separately.
A typical home visit often takes about two hours. Property size, panel count, access, the number of concerns, and agreed testing can change the time. Tell us about the property and any deadline so we can confirm the appointment scope.
The price depends on the property, accessible equipment, requested testing, and report scope. Contact us for inspection pricing before booking. An estimate request is not a free inspection, and any repair work is discussed and authorized separately.
No. A thermal camera shows surface temperature patterns. It can help identify unusual heating on accessible equipment under suitable conditions. It cannot see through walls or prove that every concealed connection is sound. We interpret thermal findings alongside the physical inspection and other tests.
Our qualified electrical team may remove the cover when it can be done safely and is within the agreed scope. Unsafe conditions or access limits may require a different approach or a follow-up visit. Please leave all covers in place and let us handle access and testing.
It can be useful when a home inspection flags electrical concerns, the property has older wiring, or you want more detail before a deadline. Send the existing report and confirm access with the owner or agent. We explain the electrical findings; your agent can advise on the transaction.
The applicable requirements depend on the installation, its condition, past alterations, the proposed work, and local enforcement. Age alone does not settle whether something needs correction. We distinguish observed concerns from possible improvements and explain when local code review is needed.
Yes. We provide written findings with locations, priorities, recommended next steps, and noted inspection limits. If repairs are needed, we can discuss a separate scope and estimate. You decide which authorized work proceeds; the inspection does not automatically commit you to repairs.
Share existing inspection reports, known symptoms, and your deadline. Arrange property access and clear stored items from the approach to the panel when safe to do so. Tell us about locked spaces, pets, and equipment that cannot be interrupted. Do not open electrical covers or expose wiring.
