What should I do if I experience frequent power surges?

We recommend scheduling an electrical inspection to identify and resolve the problem. Installing surge protection can also help safeguard your home or business.

How often should I schedule electrical maintenance?

Regular electrical maintenance helps prevent issues before they become major problems. We recommend:

• Homes: A professional electrical inspection every 3–5 years.
