If you're planning to sell your home—or even just refinance—your electrical system plays a bigger role than you might think.

At E&A Electric, we’ve helped homeowners across Norwalk and nearby areas upgrade their electrical systems not just for safety—but to protect and increase their home’s value.

At E&A Electric, we offer inspections specifically for homeowners preparing to sell. We’ll check your system, flag what needs attention, and help you decide what upgrades make sense for your goals and budget.
Your home's electrical system should support its value—not sink it.
