Keeping older rural homes safe
Rural homes may have wiring that's been extended repeatedly as needs grew. Warm outlets, flickering lights and frequent tripping are signs the system is under strain. An inspection identifies the priorities, whether that's a panel update, new circuits or rewiring part of the house.
See common wiring problems for warning signs.
Power where the work happens
Shops, barns and garages need adequate, safe power. Subpanels and dedicated circuits replace risky extension cords and let you run tools, lights and heaters without tripping.
Winter loads in older homes
Older homes that rely on space heaters or electric heat can see breakers trip and outlets warm up in cold snaps. Dedicated circuits for heaters, or improving the home's main heating, is safer than moving heaters from outlet to outlet.
