It’s essential to work with an expert who is conversant with the updated checklist to keep your loved ones and home safe. The maintenance checklist involves:

Check for Frayed Wires and Cords

 Our expert electricians usually start by assessing electrical wiring around your home for signs of frayed cords or wires, which are common causes of electrical hazards. If your home has old wiring that is more than a decade old, there wiring is likely to be frayed, causing electric shocks and house fires. Depending on the extent of wear and tear discovered in your system, we recommend replacing better and more efficient wires and cords. This goes a long way in ensuring you are protected from costly damage and repairs.

Test Your Lights & Outlets

Scheduling regular electrical repair service with the expert electricians at HomeOps Electric allows us to test all your outlets and lights. After a comprehensive assessment of your outlets and lighting, we can determine if they are functioning as expected and correct any signs of damage before it becomes more pronounced. Routine maintenance checks allow our experts to replace and repair any potentially failing systems. Our electricians can also assess for other signs that pose a risk to your electrical system, such as malfunctioning components and rectifying the problem before it gets out of hand.

Tighten or Replace Loose Outlets

It is easy to check for loose outlets around your home, avoiding electrical hazards before they get out of hand. Once you detect any sign of weakness in your outlets, it’s advisable to talk to an expert before there’s severe electrical damage. Our electricians will turn off the power to your home and use a voltage tester to ensure there’s no voltage running through your outlets. After they are sure everything is safe, they will unscrew the outlet and add shims for reinforcement before putting back the cover.
