Top 3 Reasons to Get an Electrical Home Safety Inspection
Why call our licensed electricians for an inspection?
1: You Are Buying a Home
If you are purchasing a home in Lakeland, you will need a home inspection before you can close. Mortgage lenders often require a home inspection to catch any potential electrical issues and your lender might require that those issues be fixed so that the home is code compliant before the purchase can be approved.
Our Lakeland, FL license electricians can help you facilitate this inspection no matter where you currently live.
2: You Are Selling a Home
If you are on the other end of that transaction and you are trying to sell a home, you might want to proactively schedule an electrical home safety inspection in Lakeland with our team of trusted professionals. If you can prove that you’ve recently had an inspection and you can make repairs to keep the home a little safer, you open yourself up to a wider pool of potential buyers.
3: You Want Added Safety
You don’t need to be buying or selling in order to want better safety in your home. If you don’t know the last time your electrical system was inspected, when it was originally installed, or you have seen signs that your system can’t keep up with your current electrical needs, our team is there.
Call Service Minds Mister Sparky to schedule your inspection today.
Common Problems Found with Lakeland, FL Electrical Home Safety Inspections
When we conduct our electrical home safety inspection, we can help you uncover common problems that you may not have known existed.
Spacing Problems
One of those issues happens to be spacing. Codes in Florida have changed over the decades so older homes in Lakeland may have been code compliant with the spacing they had on outlets and receptacles, but may no longer be that way.
Our uniformed electricians can take a walk through all areas of your home to inspect that your hallway outlets are installed every 10 feet, that all your bedrooms have receptacles 6 feet apart, wall outlets are installed in general purpose rooms every 12 feet, and outlets in your kitchens are 20 inches or closer to your counters.
When we find issues having to do with spacing, we can help you schedule your follow-up repairs and replacement so that your home is not only safer and more code compliant, but with higher value.
Wiring Problems
On a related note, older homes in Lakeland don’t always have the right type of wiring. Electrical meter cans, circuit breakers, and other electrical components will always reach an expiration as they age and our team can help you determine how old some of your parts are and when it’s time to update faulty outlets, old wiring, or other issues.
GFCI Outlet Problems
It is important that all homes in Lakeland have GFCI outlets installed in a code compliant fashion which means within 6 feet of a sink in all bathrooms and kitchens, and in things like unfinished basements, crawl spaces, and boat houses where moisture and water are frequent.
We can help you check all of your outlets and install new ones with our outlet installation services in Lakeland, FL when the time comes.
