A CLEAR, PROVEN APPROACH TO ELECTRICAL SAFETY & CODE COMPLIANCE

Thomas & Sons Four-Step Process for Safe, Code-Compliant Electrical Systems

Comprehensive Safety & Code Assessment

Identifying Risks Before They Become Violations or Hazards

Every safety and code compliance service begins with a detailed evaluation of your home’s electrical system. We inspect wiring methods, breaker protection, grounding and bonding, outlet placement, load calculations, and overall NEC compliance. This allows us to identify safety risks, outdated installations, and code violations before they lead to failed inspections, system failures, or dangerous conditions.

Targeted Code Corrections & Compliance

Practical Fixes Backed by Experience

No two homes — or electrical systems — are exactly alike. We tailor every correction based on your home’s age, layout, and applicable local and national electrical codes. Whether it’s correcting improper wiring, adding required GFCI/AFCI protection, fixing grounding issues, or bringing older work up to current standards, our focus is on achieving full compliance without unnecessary changes.

Older homes aren’t always required to meet new codes unless work is being done, but many outdated systems pose safety risks. We identify what’s required versus what’s recommended for safety.
