Electrical Inspection across Wisconsin

Wiring ages quietly. Insulation dries out, connections loosen with decades of heating and cooling, and additions made by past owners are not always done right. An inspection catches these before they become a failed sale, an insurance problem or a fire. We look at service size, panel condition, breaker and wire matching, grounding and bonding, GFCI and AFCI protection, visible wiring in the basement and attic, and smoke and CO alarms. You get priorities, not a sales pitch: what needs attention now, what can wait and what is simply good to know.

Home inspectors look at a little of everything. Our electrical inspection in Wisconsin goes deeper: the panel cover comes off, connections are checked for heat, outlets are tested and the grounding is verified, with photos and a written summary you can hand to an agent or insurer.

Post-remodel and code correction

A check of new work, plus corrections for items flagged by a home or municipal inspector.

Electrical Inspection FAQ

What does an electrical inspection in Wisconsin include?
