A general home inspector flags electrical concerns but usually can't diagnose them. Our inspection goes deeper and puts real repair costs next to each item, which helps buyers negotiate and helps sellers fix issues before listing in La Plata.

What customers say
Polite, on time and explained everything without talking down to me. I will call them again.
After a monsoon storm fried our TV and the garage door opener, we had a whole house surge protector put in. In and out in under two hours.
Called for a quote on a few small jobs and they gave me a straight price over the phone. Did all of it in one visit.
