Before You Buy That New Home, Get an Inspection Done from A-1 Electric

There is a boom in the real estate market during the fall. It is the perfect time to buy that home that you have had your eye on all summer. Before you place an offer, there are a couple of things you should do first. Now, what is the first thing you should do when purchasing a property, whether it is commercial or residential? The first thing to do is get an inspection done on the entire property.

 

Inspectors look at the structure, foundation and utility systems of the prospective property. One inspection that is crucial is an electrical inspection. The first thing you need to do is find a certified and qualified electrical inspector. Aside from being one of the best electrical contractors in the Philadelphia area, we at A-1 Electric are also a third party agency – which means we conduct inspections. We are a dedicated, family-owned and operated business that has been around for over 50 years. We have gained a strong reputation in the places we serve for being a safe, efficient and hard-working third party agency.

 

We take our work seriously and will provide you with an efficient and detailed inspection. We pride ourselves on maintaining safety for all electrical systems, technicians, and you – the property owner! We are legally certified by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and have a certificate recognizing our agency as an authorized third party electrical inspector.

 

Your electrician cannot perform the inspection because it needs to go through a third party agency to remain unbiased. It is important to get your electrical systems looked at regularly by a company like ours to make sure that it is safe to upgrade or repair them.

 

At A-1 Electric, we have the capabilities and equipment to meet all of your inspection needs. However, we are not just electrical inspectors; we can repair and replace your electrical systems as well. Legally, we cannot perform both duties at the same time. You would either need to choose us as the inspector or the electrician, but not both. We can provide you with electrical services in Bucks County and other areas in Pennsylvania.

 

Have you bought a home recently and had electrical work done? Once the wiring and the installation of the appliances, fixtures, and devices are complete, you are ready to move on to the next step, which would be a thorough inspection conducted by our underwriters, as we are an accredited third party agency. Once the inspection is finished, and no issues are detected, the electrical system and property components will be deemed safe and approved. However, if it is found that the project did not meet regulations or a safety hazard is found, the problem will need to be fixed by the electrician you hired and then re-inspected again by us.

 

Of course, if we deem the property to be safe, you are free to move in and start enjoying your new home or business property. We are a preferred third party agency in the Philadelphia region. Contact us today for all of your electrical inspection needs!
