Frequently Asked Questions
How long does an electrical inspection take?
Most residential inspections take one to two hours depending on the size and age of the property.
Do I need an inspection before renovating?
It's often a smart move. Knowing the condition of your panel and wiring before a renovation helps you budget accurately and avoids surprises mid-project.
Will I get a report?
Yes. You'll receive a clear summary of what we found, organized by priority, so you can make informed decisions.
Is an inspection the same as a utility or ESA inspection?
No. We perform a thorough private assessment of your electrical system's condition. It's a practical review for homeowners, buyers and businesses rather than a regulatory approval.
