When is it Time for my Maine Home Electrical Rewiring?
While your home’s age can play a major role in determining if it’s time for rewiring, it isn’t the only indication. There are many factors to think about, from the current condition of your wiring to any planned appliance upgrades or home additions.
If you experience any of these problems, it’s time to call Heritage Home Service for a consultation:
- You Experience Frequent Electrical Issues
If your lights regularly flicker or your breakers constantly trip, especially when you are running your air conditioner or heater for an extended period of time, it may be time for electrical rewiring.
- The Electrical Panel is Hot
A hot electrical panel could be a sign your electrical system is working too hard. Given Maine’s demanding heating and cooling needs, this requires immediate attention from an electrician.
- You Smell Burning Throughout Your Home
An unusual burning smell throughout your home could signify that your wires are overloaded and need replacing. This is particularly concerning during the peak of the summer and winter seasons.
- Buzzing or Sparking is Coming From Outlets
Buzzing, sizzling, or visible sparking coming from the outlets when you plug something in or remove it are all signs of an overworked system.
- There is Visible Damage to Your Electrical System
If you can visibly see damaged wires, wire insulation, or broken outlets, call Heritage Home Service for electrical rewiring today.
