House Electrical Inspection Process
First, we schedule your electrical inspection at a time that works for you. No waiting around all day—we give you a real time window and stick to it.
During the inspection, we check every critical component: your electrical panel, circuit breakers, wiring conditions, grounding system, GFCI outlets, and smoke detectors. We test outlets, examine connections, and look for any code violations that could cause problems later.
After the inspection, you get a detailed report with our findings and official certification if everything passes. If we find issues, we explain exactly what needs attention and can handle the repairs right away. No surprises, no runaround—just clear information you can act on.

What does an electrical inspection include for my Brooklyn home?
We inspect every critical component of your electrical system: the main electrical panel, circuit breakers, all wiring and connections, grounding systems, GFCI outlets, smoke detectors, and lighting installations. We also check for proper labeling, adequate capacity, and compliance with NYC electrical codes.
For Prospect Lefferts Gardens properties, we pay special attention to common issues in older buildings like outdated panels, missing GFCI protection, and aging wiring systems. Our inspection follows National Electric Code standards and NYC Department of Buildings requirements.
You’ll receive a detailed report documenting our findings, plus official certification if your system passes. If we identify any issues, we explain exactly what needs attention and can handle repairs immediately.
When do I need an electrical inspection for my property?
You need an electrical inspection when buying or selling property, applying for homeowner’s insurance, or if your building is over 40 years old. Many insurance companies won’t provide coverage without current electrical inspection documentation.
NYC also requires inspections after major electrical work, renovations, or when you’re adding new high-power appliances. If you’re experiencing frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering lights, or other electrical issues, an inspection can identify the root cause.
For Prospect Lefferts Gardens residents, we recommend inspections every few years due to the age of many buildings in the neighborhood. Older electrical systems need regular verification to ensure they’re still safe and up to code.
What happens if my electrical system fails inspection?
If we find code violations or safety issues, we provide a detailed explanation of what needs to be corrected. Most problems are straightforward fixes like adding GFCI outlets, updating panel labels, or repairing loose connections.
We can handle the necessary repairs immediately, so you don’t have to find another contractor or wait for a second appointment. Once repairs are complete, we re-inspect to ensure everything meets code requirements.
The key is addressing issues promptly. Delaying repairs can lead to safety hazards, insurance problems, or more expensive fixes down the road. We work efficiently to get your system compliant and certified as quickly as possible.
How long does an electrical inspection take?
Most electrical inspections take 1-2 hours, depending on your property size and the complexity of your electrical system. We work efficiently but thoroughly—rushing through an inspection defeats the purpose of having one done.
For typical Prospect Lefferts Gardens properties, we can usually complete the inspection in about 90 minutes. Larger buildings or properties with multiple electrical panels may take longer. We’ll give you an accurate time estimate when we schedule your appointment.
You’ll have your inspection report and certification (if applicable) before we leave. No waiting days for results or wondering about the status of your electrical system.
Do you provide electrical inspection reports for insurance companies?
Yes, we provide complete electrical inspection documentation that meets insurance company requirements. Our reports include detailed findings, photographs of key components, and official certification when your system passes inspection.
Insurance companies in NYC often require electrical inspections for older Brooklyn properties before approving coverage. Our documentation format is accepted by all major insurance providers, and we can submit reports directly if needed.
We understand the insurance process and make sure our reports include all the information insurers need to approve your policy. This eliminates back-and-forth requests for additional documentation and speeds up your coverage approval.
