FAQs
What does a comprehensive electrical inspection cover for my Cape Charles home?
Our electrical inspection is a thorough safety check of your home's entire system. We examine your main service panel for proper capacity and safe connections, test all outlets and GFCIs, especially in kitchens and bathrooms, and inspect wiring for signs of wear or improper installation. Given the age of many homes in our area, we pay special attention to outdated components that may pose a fire hazard or fail to meet current codes, providing you with a clear assessment and prioritized recommendations.
Why is a plumbing inspection important before buying an older home on the Shore?
Older plumbing systems can have hidden issues like galvanized pipes that are prone to corrosion and reduced water flow, or drainage problems that aren't immediately apparent. Our plumbing inspection checks water pressure, examines visible pipes for leaks or corrosion, tests all fixtures and drains, and assesses the water heater's condition and safety. This proactive check helps Cape Charles homeowners avoid unexpected, costly repairs by identifying potential failures before they cause water damage.
My older AC unit isn't cooling well. Could it be a refrigerant leak, and how do you handle that?
Refrigerant leaks are a common issue with aging HVAC systems in our climate and can significantly reduce efficiency. If your unit is low on coolant, we first perform a detailed leak detection test to locate the source. Per EPA regulations, we cannot simply 'top off' the refrigerant; the leak must be repaired. We will explain your options, which may include repair if feasible or discussing the benefits of a newer, more efficient system if the equipment is near the end of its service life, helping you make an informed decision for your home.
