Electrical Inspections in Houston & Central Texas

What’s included

Every inspection focuses on safety, reliability, and documentation:

• Service equipment and panel condition (labels, terminations, clearances)
• Representative sampling of circuits, devices, and GFCI/AFCI protection
• Grounding & bonding checks at service and metallic systems
• Thermal imaging (when scoped) to spot hidden heat issues
• Smoke/CO detector placement and age review
• A concise report with photos and prioritized next steps

Inspection, testing & documentation

This is your routine health check—organized and easy to act on.

• Visual review of service, panel, and accessible wiring
• Function tests on a representative set of outlets/switches/GFCIs
• Spot voltage and load readings where warranted
• Device sampling strategy explained in the report (what we checked and why)
• Photo-rich documentation with red/yellow/green priorities and links to next steps
• Clear handoffs to Repair, Panels, or Service Upgrades if needed

Need paperwork for insurance or a remodel? We’ll format findings to match.

Safety & code compliance

A practical look at code-related items that affect safety and permits:

• Missing or misapplied GFCI/AFCI protection in kitchens, baths, laundry, exterior, and bedrooms
• Overfilled or corroded panels, improper terminations, missing labels
• Grounding & bonding gaps that raise shock risk
• Workmanship issues that could fail inspection on a remodel

You’ll get a correction plan with estimated effort so you can fix items in the right order. If anything is urgent, we’ll flag it and offer same-week scheduling with our Electrical Repair team.

Pre-purchase assessments

Buying or selling? A pre-purchase electrical inspection gives clarity before closing.

• Objective review of service size, panel brand/condition, representative devices, and visible wiring type(s)
• Note any aluminum branch circuits or older equipment that merits attention
• Snapshot of GFCI/AFCI coverage and obvious grounding/bonding gaps
• Same-day summary with a next-day formal report (photos + priorities)

Thermal imaging

Thermal imaging helps reveal hidden problems without opening every wall:

• Identify overheating connections, overloaded circuits, and loose terminations
• Compare hot spots under normal load vs. elevated load (when safe)
• Capture before/after images for repairs—useful for insurance and peace of mind

If we see a thermal anomaly, we’ll verify with meter readings and a physical check before recommending a fix.

Grounding & bonding

Proper grounding & bonding is the backbone of electrical safety.

• Confirm presence and condition of grounding electrodes (e.g., rods)
• Verify water/gas bonding and service equipment bonding
• Check neutrals/grounds in subpanels are isolated as required
• Provide a clear list of corrections with materials and effort level

Corrections can often be scheduled quickly—ask about pairing this with surge protection for extra resilience.

Smoke & CO detectors

We review smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector placement, age, and interconnection.

• Identify expired devices and mismatched brands that don’t communicate
• Recommend hardwired with battery backup where appropriate
• Replace and interconnect for whole-home alerts

If you’re renovating, we’ll align detector updates with your project schedule.

Pricing & scheduling

• Straightforward estimates based on scope (routine check, pre-purchase, thermal add-on, etc.)
• Convenient appointments with narrow arrival windows
• Written report with photos and prioritized actions included
