We specialize in correcting hazardous aluminum wiring in homes built during the 1968-1972 period. Our process follows National Electric Code standards using special purple wire nuts with conductive gel to safely bond aluminum to copper components. This critical service prevents electrical arcing that can cause fires, requiring complete furniture relocation from walls for proper installation.

Our GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) outlet installations protect areas near water sources like kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor spaces. We ensure proper placement and explain circuit relationships, identifying 'boss' outlets that control multiple locations. This service meets current code requirements while addressing common tripping issues from appliance use or weather events.
