Electrical Inspection in Farmington, NM

Buying an older home in Farmington, or living in one? A dedicated electrical inspection goes much deeper than a general home inspection. We open the panel, test the circuits, and give you a plain-language report with priorities.

What our inspection covers

We look for the issues that matter most in Farmington homes: overloaded or recalled panels, aluminum branch wiring, ungrounded outlets, missing GFCI protection, amateur wiring from past remodels, and sun-damaged exterior wiring.

  • Service entrance, meter base, and grounding
  • Main panel and sub panels, with the cover removed
  • Breaker sizing against wire size
  • Outlet testing, polarity, and grounding
  • GFCI and AFCI protection where required
  • Visible wiring in attics, crawl spaces, and garages
  • Smoke and carbon monoxide alarm placement
  • A written summary with photos and priorities

Good times to schedule an inspection

  • Before you buy or sell a home
  • Your home is more than 40 years old and has never been checked
  • Your insurer has asked about the wiring or panel
  • Before a major remodel, EV charger, or air conditioning upgrade
  • After storm, flood, or fire damage

Why Farmington properties call a local electrician

Farmington is in the high country of northwest New Mexico, where cold winters, dusty winds, and long rural service runs are part of everyday life. Homes, shops, and ranch properties across San Juan County often depend on well pumps, space heating, and outbuildings fed by long runs of cable.

Electric service in San Juan County is typically provided by Farmington Electric Utility System, the City of Aztec, or the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.

We provide electrical inspections throughout Farmington, including Downtown Farmington, the Foothills, and Crouch Mesa. If you searched for an electrician near Downtown Farmington or an electrician in the Foothills, we are close by. We also serve nearby Kirtland, Flora Vista, Bloomfield, and Aztec.

How long does an electrical inspection take in Farmington?

Most homes take one to two hours depending on size and how accessible the attic and crawl space are.

Will you fix what you find?
