Why Every NWA Homebuyer Should Schedule an Electrical Inspection Before Closing
Buying a home is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make—and while home inspections are standard, many buyers don’t realize how important a professional electrical inspection really is. At Epic Electric, we help homebuyers across Northwest Arkansas avoid costly surprises by providing thorough, licensed electrical inspections before closing the deal.
🔌 What Is an Electrical Inspection?
An electrical inspection is a detailed evaluation of your home’s electrical system. It goes far beyond flipping a few switches and checking the lights. We look at every component to ensure your home is safe, efficient, and up to code.
An inspection includes:
- Checking the main service panel and circuit breakers
- Inspecting outlets, switches, and GFCI protection
- Verifying grounding and bonding
- Reviewing wiring condition and layout
- Identifying any outdated or unsafe electrical components (like aluminum wiring or double-tapped breakers)
🛑 Why a Standard Home Inspection Isn’t Enough
Most general home inspectors only do a surface-level check of the electrical system. They might turn lights on and off or note visible issues—but they’re not licensed electricians, and they can easily miss deeper problems.
By scheduling a dedicated inspection with Epic Electric, you’ll get a trained set of eyes on the system that powers your entire home. That means we’ll catch things that could become fire hazards or major repair bills down the road.
💰 How an Electrical Inspection Can Save You Money
Here’s the truth: electrical repairs can be expensive—and dangerous if left unaddressed. By identifying issues before you close on the home, you can:
- Negotiate repairs or credits with the seller
- Avoid emergency repairs after move-in
- Ensure your home insurance isn’t impacted by code violations
- Protect your family from avoidable risks
🧰 When Should You Get an Electrical Inspection?
We recommend a full inspection before you finalize your purchase—especially if:
- The home is more than 20 years old
- You’re buying a fixer-upper
- You plan to renovate or add onto the home
- There are visible signs of DIY electrical work
