Here are some pics of what you don't see until it's too late.

We are showing you this, so you understand how regular maintenance is necessary. If you hear crackling or arcing sound at outlets or if only half the outlet works or power cuts in and out, as well as if outlet becomes warm with use.

bathroom exhaust fans, we recommend vacuum out lint once a year.

Ceiling fans we recommend tightening all accessible screws once or twice a year depending on use. once a screw becomes loose it throws entire fan out of balance. And please do not use wobbling ceiling fans without first having them checked or repaired.

And please do not continue to use any electrical device if there is a known issue, this leads to fire hazard.

What results can I expect from troubleshooting?

You’ll get a clear report on hidden faults, recommended fixes, and improved panel reliability.
