The Hidden Risks of Older Properties
Older properties offer timeless charm, but they often come with hidden risks - especially when it comes to outdated or deteriorating electrical systems. Worn or damaged wiring is one of the leading causes of electrical fires, making regular inspections essential for your safety and peace of mind.
When Was Your Last Inspection?
If your property hasn’t had an electrical inspection in over 10 years, it’s time to act. As energy demands increase, older systems may struggle to keep up, putting your home at risk.
