Signs it's more than a fluke

• Your home is over 15 years old
• Fewer repair calls out of nowhere
• You just moved in
• Adding big loads, want the basics checked first

What we do when we get there

1. Panel: main off, tighten breakers and lugs, vacuum, test, label
2. Outlets and switches: plug-test, tighten, replace cracked or warm ones, test GFCI and AFCI
3. Safety devices: test detectors, new batteries, flag any over 10 years old
4. Lights, fans, big loads: tighten, relamp in LED, check the AC, water heater, dryer, range, EV charger
5. Wrap-up: written summary, quote for bigger work

What moves the price

• One device, or wiring inside the walls
• Access: attic, crawlspace, or drywall to open and patch
• Age and type of your wiring and panel
• Whether a permit is required
• Parts: same-for-same, or upgraded to current code

Permits for repair work

Like-for-like repairs usually skip permits. Panel swaps, new circuits and inspection fixes usually need one.
