Our Electrical Inspection work in Hollister
Most electrical hazards give no warning until something fails. An electrical inspection in Hollister looks at the parts of the system you can't easily judge yourself: the panel, the grounding, the wiring methods, the connections and the protective devices. You get a plain-language report of what was found.

Electrical Inspection questions from Hollister customers
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.
Will you fix what you find?
If you want us to. Each item is priced separately so you can choose. See electrical repair and panel upgrades.
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.
From recent customers
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.
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.
They installed our Level 2 charger in the garage and explained the load calculation in plain English. Clean conduit run, no mess, and the price matched the quote.
