Electrical Inspections in Atlanta, GA

Your home’s electrical system powers everything—but hidden issues can quickly become dangerous if left unchecked. At Atlanta Master Electricians, we provide thorough, code-compliant electrical inspections for homes, rental properties, and businesses across metro Atlanta. Whether you're buying a new house, updating your panel, or preparing for renovations, our licensed electricians ensure your system is safe, up to code, and ready for the future.

Outdated wiring, overloaded panels, and hidden faults are common problems in Atlanta’s older homes, especially in areas like Decatur, East Point, or Mableton. Even in newer construction, builder shortcuts or DIY work can lead to fire hazards, shock risks, and insurance problems. That’s where our inspections make all the difference.

We go beyond surface checks to thoroughly evaluate your panel, circuits, outlets, grounding, bonding, breakers, smoke detectors, and wiring. We also inspect for NEC violations, aging components, and safety hazards—then provide a detailed report with clear recommendations.

Whether you need an inspection for peace of mind or to meet city or insurance requirements, we deliver fast, accurate, and affordable assessments—usually with same-day service before 6 p.m.

When Should You Schedule an Electrical Inspection?

1. Before Buying or Selling a Home

A licensed electrical inspection identifies any problems before closing. It protects your investment, strengthens negotiation, and prevents surprise expenses.

2. During Home Renovations or Remodels

If you’re adding a room, kitchen, or new lighting, you need to know if your system can support the load. We ensure your setup is safe and ready.

3. After Experiencing Electrical Issues

Frequent breaker trips, buzzing outlets, or flickering lights are signs of deeper electrical problems. Our inspection pinpoints the source.

4. For Older Homes and Outdated Panels

If your home is more than 25 years old, it likely wasn’t designed for today’s energy demands. We identify aging panels, aluminum wiring, and other risks.

5. For Insurance or Permit Requirements

Some policies or city permits require updated inspections. We provide detailed documentation to help you meet compliance without delays.
