How often does electrical wiring need to be checked for safety?

There isn’t one fixed schedule; have a licensed electrician check wiring when conditions change or you see warning signs. In Roanoke and Cave Spring, plan a safety check during a home purchase, after renovations or storm damage, before adding big loads (EV charger, hot tub), and anytime you smell burning, see scorch marks, hear buzzing, or trip breakers repeatedly.
