We evaluate panels, grounding, emergency exit lighting, GFCI/AFCI protection, and conduit routing. We deliver a detailed written report outlining immediate concerns, maintenance priorities, and energy upgrade opportunities.
Signs It Is Time to Call for Commercial Electrical Inspections
Outdated electrical systems pose liability risks. Schedule an inspection if your property shows any of these signs:
- Purchasing, selling, or signing a new lease for a commercial building or retail space – This can point to an overloaded circuit or loose connection that requires inspection.
- Your commercial insurance company requesting a certified safety audit of the electrical system – A symptom that shouldn’t be ignored as it could pose safety hazards.
- Unexplained flickering lights, buzzing panels, or warm device covers in the facility – Often indicates that your existing system is struggling to serve your modern power demands.
- Planning major equipment upgrades and needing to audit your current system capacity – Requires a code-correct installation or repair rather than a temporary shortcut.
What Affects the Cost and Scope of the Job?
We provide flat-rate inspection pricing. Your commercial inspection estimate is calculated based on:
- The square footage and number of electrical panels inside the facility – This determines the amount of wire, conduit, and labor time needed for the run.
- The age of the building and whether past unpermitted modifications are suspected – Wall construction, ceiling access, and safety clearances directly impact the work scope.
- Whether diagnostics like panel infrared temperature scans are required – Older systems may need safety upgrades or permit coordination before adding new equipment.
- The detail level of code documentation required for municipal or insurance submissions – The power rating of the device or panel determines breaker sizes and service line requirements.

Do I need a licensed electrician for electrical business electrical inspection?
Yes, electrical work should be handled by a qualified licensed electrician when safety, wiring, panels, circuits, or permanent installation are involved. Mills Electric Co. is licensed under Electrical License #36565 and carries insurance through biBerk Policy #N9BP158903. A licensed contractor can also help you avoid unsafe shortcuts that may create problems later.
How do I know if I need electrical business electrical inspection or a different electrical service?
You do not have to diagnose it before calling. Explain what you are seeing, hearing, smelling, or planning. Mills Electric Co. will look at the affected circuit, panel, device, or fixture and recommend the service that actually matches the issue.
Can Mills Electric Co. provide a price before starting?
For many jobs, pricing can be discussed after the scope is reviewed. Electrical pricing depends on access, materials, panel condition, circuit length, device type, and safety requirements. The goal is to be clear before the work moves forward, not surprise you at the end.
Is electrical business electrical inspection covered by a warranty?
Mills Electric Co. provides a 1 year workmanship warranty. Extended workmanship warranty coverage is available at 10% of the job cost per additional year, up to 5 years. Product warranties may depend on the manufacturer.
Can this be scheduled outside normal business hours?
Some service can be planned around access needs, and urgent issues may fall under emergency service. If the situation involves sparking, burning smells, heat at the panel, exposed live wiring, or power loss affecting safety, call (704) 818-7867.
Will the work be explained before anything is replaced?
Yes. Raymond Mills believes customers should understand the reason behind the recommendation. When troubleshooting or inspecting, the goal is to identify the cause before replacing parts that may not solve the problem.
