Electrical Maintenance FAQs
How often should I have electrical maintenance?
For most homes, every 2-3 years is sufficient. Rental properties should be checked annually (smoke alarms must be tested every 12 months). Older properties, commercial buildings, or high-usage facilities may benefit from annual or bi-annual maintenance.
How much does electrical maintenance cost?
A standard residential maintenance visit typically costs $200-$350 depending on property size. Commercial maintenance varies based on the size and complexity of your electrical system. Scheduled maintenance programs offer better value with discounted rates.
What's the difference between maintenance and repairs?
Maintenance is proactive - we inspect, test, and maintain your electrical system to prevent problems. Repairs are reactive - fixing issues after they've occurred. Regular maintenance often prevents the need for expensive repairs.
Do I need electrical maintenance for insurance?
Many insurance companies require proof of regular electrical maintenance, especially for rental properties and commercial buildings. We provide comprehensive documentation that satisfies insurance requirements.
Can you do maintenance outside of business hours?
Yes! We offer flexible scheduling including evenings and weekends for an additional fee. This is particularly useful for businesses that can't have maintenance during operating hours.
What happens if you find problems during maintenance?
We'll explain any issues found and provide a quote for repairs. Urgent safety issues are highlighted immediately. Minor issues can usually be fixed during the maintenance visit. Major repairs can be scheduled at your convenience.
Do you provide a report after maintenance?
Yes, every maintenance visit includes a detailed written report with photos where relevant. The report documents everything checked, tested, and any recommendations. Perfect for insurance, property managers, and your own records.
Is electrical maintenance tax deductible?
For rental properties and businesses, electrical maintenance is generally tax deductible as a property or business expense. Keep your invoices and maintenance reports for your accountant. Check with your tax professional for specific advice.
