Choosing the right electrical service

A focused inspection

An outlet concern gives us a starting point for the inspection. We're insured, and we'll discuss the issue with you before examining the affected area.

A repair for a known fault

A known fault may call for a repair rather than a standalone inspection. We also handle outlet and switch repairs when that work is needed.

Process

Steps in an electrical safety inspection

1

Discuss the electrical concern

We ask about symptoms and identify the outlets or circuits you want checked.

2

Inspect the affected components

We examine accessible electrical parts and use appropriate tests for the concern.

3

Discuss findings and an estimate

We explain what we found and provide a free estimate for the work you request.

What an outlet and panel inspection helps you decide

You'll know whether an outlet concern calls for further electrical work.

Our findings can help you discuss repairs before choosing a scope of work.

A check of the affected area gives you more useful information than the symptom alone.

Inspection or electrical repair

The choice depends on whether you need a concern assessed or a known fault repaired.

Questions about outlet and electrical safety checks

How are electrical outlets checked for safety?

GMB Electric checks outlet safety with visual inspection and polarity testing as appropriate. We also assess the outlet's condition and select other tests suited to the concern. Tell us if a plug feels loose or the outlet has sparked. That information helps us focus the inspection on the affected receptacle.

For Electrical Safety Inspection, what should I do if I smell burning near the panel?

A burning smell near the panel needs urgent attention because it can signal a fire risk. Keep away from the panel and don't touch or reset its breakers. If you see smoke or fire, leave the building and call emergency services. Tell us about the smell so we can assess the electrical concern.

When does a tripping breaker need a repair?

A repeatedly tripping breaker needs assessment to identify the fault before we recommend a repair. The breaker may be responding to a problem on its circuit. Don't keep resetting it or attempt to replace it yourself. Tell us what loses power and what equipment was in use when the breaker tripped.

Which details should I share about a partial outage for Electrical Safety Inspection?

The affected rooms and outlets help us identify where to begin checking a partial outage. Tell us whether lights or appliances also lost power. You can note any breaker that appears tripped without touching the panel. We'll use your description to plan the assessment and discuss the electrical work it may need.

Why might an outlet need replacement after a check?

A damaged or worn receptacle may need replacement if its condition affects safe use. We assess the outlet and its connections before recommending work. A loose plug or visible damage gives us useful information, but it doesn't establish the full cause. We'll explain the concern and discuss the proposed repair with you.
