Residential Electrical FAQs

Find answers to commonly asked questions about our electrical services.

  • How do I know if my home's electrical system needs updating?

    Several signs indicate your home might need electrical updates:
    – Frequent circuit breaker trips or blown fuses
    – Flickering or dimming lights
    – Outlets that feel warm or show signs of discoloration
    – Buzzing sounds from outlets or switches
    – Reliance on extension cords or power strips for everyday use
    – Two-prong outlets instead of three-prong grounded outlets
    – Lack of GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, or outdoor areas
    – Your home is over 25 years old and hasn’t had an electrical upgrade
    If you notice any of these signs, it’s advisable to have a licensed electrician inspect your home’s electrical system.

  • How often should I have my home's electrical system inspected?

    It’s recommended to have a professional electrical inspection every 3-5 years for most homes. However, if your home is older (40+ years), you might want to consider more frequent inspections, perhaps every 2-3 years. Additionally, if you’re purchasing a home, planning a major renovation, or adding large appliances, it’s wise to get an inspection. Regular inspections can identify potential safety hazards, ensure your system is up to code, and help prevent unexpected electrical issues.

  • Can I install a ceiling fan where a light fixture currently exists?

    In many cases, yes, you can install a ceiling fan where a light fixture currently exists. However, there are important factors to consider:
    – The electrical box must be fan-rated and securely anchored to the ceiling joist
    – The circuit must be able to handle the additional load of the fan
    – The switch may need to be upgraded to accommodate fan speed controls
    While it’s possible for experienced DIYers to do this, it’s generally safer and more reliable to have a licensed electrician perform the installation. They can ensure the installation is safe, up to code, and functioning properly.

  • Why do I need GFCI outlets, and where should they be installed?

    GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets are crucial safety devices that protect against electric shock. They quickly shut off power when they detect a ground fault or leakage current. GFCIs should be installed in areas where water and electricity are in close proximity, including:
    – Kitchens (within 6 feet of sinks)
    – Bathrooms
    – Laundry rooms
    – Garages
    – Outdoor areas
    – Basements
    – Any other areas near water sources
    If your home doesn’t have GFCI protection in these areas, it’s important to have them installed by a licensed electrician to enhance your home’s electrical safety.
