There’s Nothing More Powerful Than Peace of Mind
There’s a reason why it took humans so long to invent electric: It’s complex and, at times, very tricky.
Unfortunately, many electrical problems go undetected until a serious situation occurs. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), electrical failures or malfunctions were the second leading cause of U.S. home fires from 2012 to 2016. A system that seems fine on the surface can actually be very hazardous and, in the worst case scenario, fatal.
At The Neighborhood Electrician, we provide electrical safety inspections to protect people from such dangers. With a thorough inspection from our licensed electricians, you can sleep soundly knowing your electrical system is safe and fully up to code.
Apart from ensuring your safety, an inspection can also help reduce your energy bills. After identifying what’s wrong with your electric and completing the necessary repairs, your electric will perform more efficiently and cost effectively.
When Should I Schedule an Electrical Safety Inspection?
You’ll want to have a licensed electrician inspect your electric if:
- You’re purchasing a new home. Before moving in, it’s important to know what kind of electrical system you’ll be inheriting. An inspection will identify any problems caused by a previous contractor’s mistakes or a homeowner’s failed DIY project that should have been professionally done.
- You’re adding onto your home or renovating it. Whenever you make significant changes to your home, you’ll want to have the electric inspected. This is to ensure that your system can handle the new additional load. We frequently participate in home addition/renovation projects and will ensure your electric is exactly where it needs to be.
- Your home is more than 40 years old. Older homes are more susceptible to electrical hazards. Whether the home needs to be rewired or have new outlets installed, we’ll upgrade your home while preserving its unique architectural features.
- You’re adding a number of new appliances to your home. It’s important to remember that every electrical system has its limits! If you’re adding heavy-duty electrical appliances to your home, you’ll want to make sure your system can handle the additional strain.
What Does It Include?
During a comprehensive inspection, our electricians will evaluate every aspect of your electric, including:
- Indoor & outdoor lighting
- Wiring
- Switches & outlets
- Grounding systems
- Surge suppression
- Smoke & carbon monoxide detectors
- Circuit breakers & fuse panels
- …And everything else pertaining to your electric!
Following the inspection, we’ll provide a detailed report of our findings and discuss any necessary repairs/upgrades with you.

Just as neighbors look out for each other, we are here to look out for you!
