Electrical Inspection for Swartz Creek homes and businesses
Plenty of homes around Swartz Creek were built in the 1950s through the 1970s with 100 amp services and far fewer circuits than a household uses today. When we carry out electrical inspections in Genesee County, we make sure the existing system can support the work and tell you plainly if it cannot.
When an electrical inspection is worth it
A dedicated inspection makes sense before buying any home older than about 40 years, after a flood or fire, when an insurer asks about the wiring, before a major remodel and whenever you notice warning signs like warm outlets or frequent trips. It is separate from the permit inspection carried out by a municipal inspector on new work. Our report tells you what is urgent, what can wait and what is fine as it is.
