"The electrical was torn from my house during Helene almost a year ago. Anyone remember what a hassle it was to get anything done around that time? I was amazed that David DUNN came out within a day and repaired my electric electrical to my house better than it was before. I highly recommend him and his services. He was professional, courteous, and thorough. You can't go wrong hiring David DUNN."

"The rep suggested several improvements including upgrading to a solar heating system. We are now in the process of installing a solar heating system. With government tax incentives over the next 2 years we will finance $15K. If I just keep paying what I was paying for my monthly power bill towards the solar panels and upgrades the payback is less that 7 years. After which, my electricity is free. System has a 30 year warranty. Looking forward to the installation and will provide feedback once it is installed and in operation."

"There are no words! These guys are top notch humans. We needed a whole new service installed after Helene, there were here first thing Tuesday, and went far above their job. I went to work but my daughter and newborn grandson were here. These guys brought her lunch and ran an extension cord and brought in a commercial fan. They didn't stop there, them and my landlord fixed our generator, we couldn't get it going, left the fan for us to use, filled the gas in the generator. I hope they know just how much we appreciate all their kindness. The city came right out an approved their work, we are all set for when Duke shows up."

"Repairman checked for electrical system problem, none found. Determined that refrigerator was at fault. He checked the connections in the temperature unit located in the main body of the refrigerator (not the freezer) and adjusted something (I'm not sure exactly what). The refrigerator operated normally. He was unable, however, to tell me what was wrong. This is the second time I have had a problem with this refrigerator. The people at Mr. Rogers have been very good about getting someone to help me."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Aluminum wiring can pose a fire risk as it can overheat, expand, and contract, leading to failing splices and loose connections. If your home has aluminum wiring, it requires careful maintenance and potential safety upgrades. The first step is to hire a licensed electrician to conduct a thorough inspection.

A complete replacement with copper wire is the safest option but can be very expensive and is not always necessary. Other safety measures and upgrades include:

  • Copper Pigtailing: A more budget-friendly option where a short section of copper wire is added to each end of the aluminum wire. This is only appropriate for certain homes.

  • Aluminum-Compatible Outlets: Installing outlets specifically designed for use with aluminum wiring.

  • Anti-Oxidant Paste: Applying this paste to connections to prevent oxidation.

Consulting with a qualified electrician is essential to assess the condition of your wiring and determine the most appropriate updates to meet current safety standards.

You should never wire neutral and ground wires together at a light switch. Not only is it unsafe, but it’s also incorrect. The neutral and ground wires perform separate functions in an electrical circuit and should never be swapped or wired together at a light switch, light, or outlet. 

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

Inverter generators are designed to turn on the engine when your appliances demand more energy. This is in contrast to running at full capacity as soon as they’re turned on, like a standard portable generator does. So long as the wattage rating is high enough, an inverter can power a refrigerator just as well as a traditional generator.

If wiring in a relatively modern home is damaged due to sudden events like a fire, a tree falling into the house, or a flood, then homeowners insurance is very likely to cover the cost of replacing the wire.

However, if it’s determined that wiring failed or started the fire because of age, neglect, or not meeting current electrical standards, then insurance won’t be covering any replacement. Also, insurance policies may charge more for particularly old kinds of wiring like aluminum wiring or deny applications altogether.
