Our commercial electrician/residential electrician will check your circuit breakers and fuses during your electrical safety inspection.

Replace Damaged Wall Plates

Wall plates for electrical outlets and switches are there for more than decoration, they serve a very important purpose. They cover the exposed wires near the outlet and switch, thus preventing them from accidental contact with a child, pet, or even someone trying to turn on a light in a dark room. When a wall plate becomes damaged or broken, it should be replaced immediately.
