Code Corrections

Fixing Violations, Closing Sales, Protecting Homes

When a home inspector identifies electrical violations during a real estate transaction — or when you receive a citation from a building official — those violations need to be corrected by a licensed electrician. Charm City Electric specializes in identifying, documenting, and correcting electrical code violations efficiently so you can move forward.

Common Violations We Correct

The most frequently cited electrical violations in Baltimore homes include: missing GFCI protection in bathrooms, kitchens, and garages; open junction boxes without covers; double-tapped breakers (two wires on a breaker not rated for it); missing knockouts in panels; exposed wiring without conduit; reversed polarity outlets; and ungrounded outlets in homes where grounded wiring exists but wasn't connected properly.

The Real Estate Context

In real estate transactions, electrical violations identified in an inspection report can delay or derail a closing. Buyers need assurance the violations are corrected before they'll proceed; sellers need the work done quickly and documented properly. We prioritize real estate-related correction work and provide written documentation of all completed repairs for the transaction file.

Beyond the List

When we're correcting violations from an inspection report, we always review the entire list and look for any items that may have been missed. Our goal isn't just to check boxes — it's to make sure the home is genuinely safe and that no related issues were overlooked.
