A general home inspection covers many systems at a surface level. A WireNut electrical inspection is performed by a licensed electrician with the knowledge to go deeper, identifying specific code violations, aging equipment, hidden hazards, and capacity issues that a general inspector may miss. For Security-Widefield homebuyers or homeowners with older systems, a dedicated electrical inspection gives you a much more complete picture.

A typical inspection of a Security-Widefield home takes between 90 minutes and two hours. Larger homes or homes with more complex systems may take longer. Your WireNut electrician will let you know upfront based on your home’s size and what you’ve described.

Make sure the panel is accessible and there’s clear space around it. If you have a crawl space or attic where wiring is visible, having those areas accessible helps the inspector get a more complete picture. Note any specific concerns you’ve noticed, flickering lights, warm outlets, breakers that trip, and bring those up at the start of the inspection so your WireNut electrician can pay extra attention to those areas in your Security-Widefield home.
