Truth-in-Housing Electrical Repairs (TISH)
Clear to Close
Don't let a Truth-in-Housing (TISH) report derail your home sale. We specialize in rapidly correcting electrical code violations so you can pass reinspection and sign the papers.
City inspectors flag items like ungrounded outlets and double-tapped breakers as "Immediate Repair" needed for safety. We fix these specific items to satisfy the inspector's checklist.
Common TISH Repairs
We see the same flags on almost every report. Here is what we fix most often to get you to closing.
Ungrounded Outlets
The 3-Prong Cheat. If you have 3-prong outlets on old 2-wire cabling, it's a code violation. We install GFCI protection to legally allow 3-prong use without rewiring the house.
Smo/CO Detectors
Hardwired Safety. Missing or expired smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are automatic fails. We install new, interconnected units that meet current building codes.
Double Taps
Overloaded Lugs. Two wires jammed under one breaker screw is a fire hazard. We separate them or install "piggyback" breakers to give every circuit a safe connection.
Passing Reinspection
