Electrical System Inspection Allentown PA

Electrical System Inspection

As we become more technologically dependent and add more electronics to our everyday lives, the electrical system of our homes and businesses need to evolve to be able to handle the extra load.  As the electrical system continues to age, it may fall out of compliance with state & local building codes.  Normally, we run into this question when we are buying or selling a new home, adding an addition or adding an energy vampire appliance like a EV Charging Station, but it’s important for your own safety and peace of mind to know that your home or business electrical system is up to task of powering everything in your home.

The professional, certified, licensed electricians at GB Electrical can inspect your homes electrical system and provide you with a detailed list of those items that will fail inspections, should be replaced/updated to improve your system and a roadmap and detailed estimate to correcting those issues.  Give us a call to schedule an appointment today

Why is an Electrical Safety Inspection important?

An electrical safety inspection can prevent any type of electrical issue from occurring in your home or business. When buying a new home, it’s extremely important for an inspection to avoid any costly or potentially deadly issues from arising post-purchase.  The licensed electricians at GB Electric in Allentown will conduct a thorough evaluation of your electrical system to ensure everything meets the National Electrical Code (NEC), the U.S. safety standard for electrical installation services. Once all aspects of your home or business have been inspected to make certain all electrical wiring, components, and appliances comply with the NEC, GB Electric will supply you with a detailed checklist of the inspection results, and include various recommendations for anything that may need servicing.

GB Electric tackled a large rewiring project for me at a reasonable price that fit my budget. They also scheduled the project around my work schedule, rather than me having to accommodate their schedule, which was amazing to start. Gabriel and his colleague were polite, friendly, punctual, knowledgeable, and professional. They included me in the process by having me test certain outlets and light switches to show me they were working. Also, they discovered a small, unexpected separate issue that was not part of the original job, but they fixed it without increasing the cost. I absolutely recommend GB Electric for anyone in need of electrical services. They provide the highest quality of service at a price that’s affordable.

We had Gabriel here to install a ceiling fan in our family room, new front porch light and solar lights on our deck. He did a great job! Very professional, courteous and does a great job. We highly recommend him.

I've used GB Electric before for a fan installation, he was timely and knowledgeable. I hired him again for multiple rooms for electrical fixtures to be installed this time. Again he was timely and knowledgeable. It was a total of 4 fixtures. He completed it all same day and that was with a minor bump in the installation due to a bracket that needed to be replaced. He was great with my young blue nose pit-bull and respectful to my home. GB electrics can be busy so my recommendation is to be patient, and it helps if you have an idea of what you want done so he can assist faster and efficiently.

Gabriel was fast, courteous, professional and always on time which is important to me because I have a busy schedule. I have a house that was built in 1870 so some of the wiring and fixtures were very old and he was very knowledgeable on how to work with that and get everything I needed replaced and working properly and up to code. I highly recommend him.

I had a really good experience working with GB Electric. Gabriel was professional, responsive and offered a very reasonable price to install my dining room chandelier. He completed the job in a timely manner and the installation came out great. I highly recommend him and will continue to use his services for future electrical work. -Barry

I had some issues with a dedicated circuit breaker for my dishwasher - at least so I thought. Turns out my issue was with my voltage detector. Regardless, Gabriel came out within a day after my call, confirmed my faulty breaker was not faulty at all. He didn't charge this weekend warrior for a service call. So while he was out, he provided me a very reasonable estimate on some additional kitchen recessed lighting and above-island pendant lighting. Highly recommend GB Electric!! Very honest, up-front, no-pressure service.

I just wanted to say how please I am with GB electric. He came to my house and gave a very reasonable estimate for some services that needed attending to. We have some very old ceiling fans and lights that we were not able to use because they were so old. he gave us an estimate and we set up an appointment within a week. He came in and was very knowledgeable. He had the lighting fixtures and the ceiling fans hooked up within a few hours. He also ran new electrical molding for an inaccessible fans. Can I just say how nice it is to have light again! He also installed an outside electrical outlet when we didn’t have one. He installed electrical conduit from the panel to outside of our concrete wall to the new electrical outlet. He did very clean, exceptional work and extremely friendly. He doesn’t know it yet, but we’re going to have him hook up our security system we just got lol.
