Georgetown electrical inspection FAQs
Is this the same as a city permit inspection?
No. Permit inspections are done by the building department on new work. Ours is an independent assessment of the existing system. Related: house rewiring and smoke detector wiring.
How is this different from a general home inspection?
A home inspector looks at everything briefly. We open the panel, test devices, check grounding and look closely at wiring methods, which often explains items a general report only flags.
How long does an electrical inspection take?
One to two hours for most homes in Georgetown, longer for large or older properties. You get the findings in writing.
What are the most common problems you find?
Missing GFCI protection, double-tapped breakers, ungrounded outlets, overloaded panels, open junction boxes and amateur wiring in garages and additions.
From recent customers
Our buyer's inspection flagged a list of electrical items. Bayshore went through each one, told us which actually mattered and fixed them before closing.
A 1940s house with original wiring. They rewired it room by room so we could keep living there, and labeled the new panel so clearly even I can read it.
Twelve recessed lights and two dimmers in the living room, done in a day with no patching needed. The layout advice alone was worth the call.
