Electrical Inspection
Tucson Electrical Inspection
An electrical inspection is a measured assessment of a building’s wiring, not a look around. Terminations are checked for heat damage, circuits are tested for polarity and ground, and protective devices are tripped rather than assumed to work.
Done Rite Services inspects homes and commercial properties across Tucson. You get a written report with every finding ranked and priced, and no obligation to book the remedial work with us.

Receptacle Testing
What a Tucson Electrical Inspection Actually Checks
An electrical inspection is a set list worked through in order, not a walk around with a torch. Everything gets looked at whether or not it is convenient to reach.
We cover the main service and panel, branch circuits and their wiring, grounding and bonding, every accessible receptacle and switch, permanently connected fixtures and appliances, and the smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. What we find goes into a written report with each item marked as safe, as needing attention, or as needing attention now.
Existing Capacity
Electrical Inspection Before a Tucson Renovation
Renovations get costed on the visible work and derailed by the electrical. A kitchen with new appliances, an addition, a converted garage or a new EV charger all draw against a service that was sized for the original house.
Checking capacity first tells you whether the panel and the branch wiring can carry the plan, or whether a service upgrade belongs in the budget. Finding that out before the drywall goes up is considerably cheaper than finding it out afterwards.
Report and Findings
What an Electrical Inspection Costs in Tucson
A residential electrical inspection generally runs between $150 and $400. Property size, the number of circuits and how accessible the panel and wiring are decide where it lands. Commercial properties are quoted on the building.
You get a written report either way, with findings ranked so you can tell a code note from a genuine hazard. It is yours to act on however you like. There is no obligation to book the remedial work with us.

Why Electrical Inspection
What a Tucson Electrical Inspection Gets You
Problems Found Before They Cost You
Overheating terminations, missing grounds and undersized conductors do not announce themselves. They are found by measurement, usually years before the failure they would otherwise have caused.
Alarms That Will Actually Sound
Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms are checked for placement, age and function. Sensors expire, and an alarm past its date looks identical to one that works until the night it matters.
A Written Report You Can Act On
Findings are ranked as safe, needs attention, or needs attention now, each with what it would take to fix. No pressure to book the work with us, and no vague warnings without a price attached.
Our Process
How We Run Your Electrical Inspection
Panel Assessment
Step 01
Inspecting the Service and Panel
We start at the service entrance and the panel, because most of what an inspection turns up is visible there. Terminations are checked for heat damage, breakers are matched against the conductors they protect, and the box is checked for corrosion, double taps and missing knockouts.
Grounding and bonding are verified at the same time: the grounding electrode conductor and its connection, neutrals and grounds bonded at the service and separated everywhere downstream. Older Tucson homes frequently fail on one of those.
Measured Readings
Step 02
Testing Circuits, Outlets and Fixtures
Where a reading tells us more than an eye can, we take one. Circuits are tested for correct polarity and continuous ground, GFCI and AFCI devices are tripped rather than assumed working, and loads are measured under real conditions.
Fixtures and permanently connected appliances are checked for safe connection and for cable damage. Findings are recorded as we go, not written up from memory in the truck afterwards.
Findings Review
Step 03
Delivering Your Inspection Report
You get a plain-language report of what is fine, what needs attention and what needs attention now, with the cost of each item so you can decide in what order to deal with them.
We go through it with you rather than emailing a document and leaving you to interpret it. There is no pressure to book the remedial work with us.
What's Covered
Electrical Inspection Details
When You Need an Electrical Inspection in Tucson
Most inspections are booked for one of a few reasons:
- Buying a property, where the general home inspection flagged the electrical system.
- Selling, where fixing what an inspector will find is cheaper before the offer than during escrow.
- Before a renovation, to find out what the existing system can carry.
- Before adding an EV charger, heat pump, solar or a workshop circuit.
- After buying a home over about 40 years old that has never been assessed.
- When something is behaving oddly: flickering lights, repeat trips, a warm outlet.
- On a commercial property, where an insurer or a lease requires it.
If a breaker trips repeatedly and nobody has explained why, that is on its own reason enough.

Customer Testimonials
Tucson Trusts Done Rite
“After numerous quotes and inspections, I decided to contract with Done Rite for a new HVAC system on my 114 year old house, which never had a central air conditioning system, only evaporative cooling. I was a bit nervous about drilling holes through plaster and lath ceilings to accommodate new vents and returns. From start to finish, these guys were amazing! This was not a cookie cutter project and they handled it with ease. Big shout out to Marcos and Brandon, etc., and to Jordan for taking the time to explain and suggest a superb system for my home.”
Questions, Answered
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an electrical inspection cost in Tucson?
A residential inspection generally runs between $150 and $400. Property size, the number of circuits and how accessible the panel and wiring are decide where within that it lands. Commercial properties are quoted on the building. You get a written report either way, with findings ranked so a code note is distinguishable from a genuine hazard.
What does an electrical inspection include?
The main service and panel, branch circuits and wiring, grounding and bonding, accessible receptacles and switches, permanently connected fixtures and appliances, and smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. GFCI and AFCI devices are tripped rather than assumed working, and loads are measured under real conditions.
How long does an electrical inspection take?
A typical Tucson home takes two to three hours. Larger properties, difficult panel access and homes with multiple subpanels take longer. We would rather spend the extra hour than skip the awkward parts, since the awkward parts are where the problems usually are.
Should I get an electrical inspection before buying a house?
It is worth it, particularly on anything over about 40 years old or where the general home inspection flagged the electrical system. A general inspector notes what is visible. An electrical inspection tests it. Finding an unsafe panel or missing grounds before closing is a negotiating position, and finding it afterwards is a bill.
Do I need an inspection before adding an EV charger or solar?
Yes, and it saves money. A charger, a heat pump or a solar inverter all draw against a service sized for the original house. Checking capacity first tells you whether the panel can carry it or whether a service upgrade belongs in the budget, rather than discovering it on installation day.
What happens if you find a problem?
It goes in the report ranked as needing attention or needing attention now, with what the fix involves and what it costs. Anything genuinely unsafe gets pointed out on the day rather than saved for the write-up. You are under no obligation to book the repair with us, and the report is yours regardless.
How often should a property be inspected?
Every ten years for a home in reasonable condition, and every three to five for anything over 40 years old or with knob-and-tube or aluminium wiring. Commercial properties often have a shorter interval set by an insurer or a lease. Any point at which the electrical load changes significantly is also worth an inspection.
