Your home’s electrical system works behind the scenes every day. It powers your lights, appliances, HVAC, and technology. But like any major system, it needs regular attention to stay safe and reliable. That’s where a professional electrical home inspection comes in.
At Affordable Electric, we perform thorough home electrical inspections for homeowners across the Twin Cities. Whether you’re buying a home, planning renovations, or just want peace of mind, an inspection can help you avoid costly repairs and potential hazards.
Here’s why scheduling an electrical inspection is one of the smartest decisions you can make for your home and family.

We offer pre-sale inspections that give you a clear picture of your system’s condition before you list or buy.
