Safety & Code Compliance: Keeping Your Family Protected from Electrical Hazards
Electrical codes aren't just a bunch of rules to make life difficult - they exist because people learned the hard way what causes house fires and electrical accidents. Every time there's a new way to prevent these problems, the codes get updated to keep families safer.
If your home is more than 10 years old, chances are good that some of your electrical setup doesn't match what's required today. That doesn't mean your house is about to burn down, but it might mean you're missing some safety features that could protect your family.
Is Your Home Up to Current Electrical Code?
Most homes around here are a mix of old and new electrical work, depending on when different parts were updated. Understanding what today's safety rules require helps you figure out where your home might need some attention.
You know those special outlets in your bathroom and kitchen that have the little buttons you can press to reset them? Those are called GFCI outlets, and they're designed to shut off instantly if water and electricity get too close together.
Many older homes also don't have enough electrical capacity for how we live today. When your house was built with fewer outlets and a smaller electrical panel, it met the rules back then but might not safely handle all the stuff we plug in nowadays.
Our Safety Inspection Process
When we come out to check your home's electrical safety, we're not just looking to see if things are working. We're checking your whole electrical setup against today's safety standards to spot potential problems before they become dangerous.
We start by taking a look at your electrical panel to make sure it's in good shape and can handle everything you're asking it to do. Throughout your house, we test outlets to make sure they're properly grounded and have those safety features where they're supposed to.
Getting Your Home Electrically Safe
Making your home electrically safe often involves a combination of immediate safety fixes and longer-term upgrades that bring systems up to current code standards. The key is prioritizing improvements that provide the most safety benefit for your investment.
GFCI outlet installation in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas provides immediate protection against electrical shock in areas where water creates additional hazards.
Schedule Your Safety Inspection
Electrical safety isn't something to put off until you notice obvious problems. Many electrical hazards develop gradually and aren't apparent during normal use until they create dangerous situations.
Electrical safety protects your most valuable assets - your family and your home. Don't wait for problems to develop before ensuring your electrical system meets current safety standards.

FAQS
Common Questions, Answered
How often should I have my electrical checked for safety?
We recommend having your electrical looked at every 10 years, or right away if you're having problems like breakers that keep tripping.
What's the most dangerous electrical problem in older homes?
Missing safety outlets (GFCI) in kitchens and bathrooms are the biggest concern - they protect you from getting shocked around water.
Are old electrical panels really unsafe?
Not necessarily, but some brands from decades past have known problems. We'll check yours and let you know if it needs attention.
How much do electrical safety fixes typically cost?
Simple fixes like adding safety outlets are very affordable. Bigger projects like panel upgrades cost more but protect your whole home.
What should I do if my lights flicker or dim?
That's often a sign of electrical problems that could be dangerous. Don't ignore it - give us a call to check it out safely.
Do you provide a written report after inspection?
Yes, we'll give you a clear written report explaining any problems we found and what we recommend fixing first.

Great company to get your air conditioning done by. They were the lowest quote out of the 3 companies I had come out. The guys came out and put in a new furnace, coil, plenums, and condenser. American standard was the brand and it looks great. Ron Sanford was very professional and made sure everything was right and working before they were done.
