When is the last time the smoke detectors in your home were checked? According to the U.S. Fire Administration smoke detectors should be replaced every 10 years.

Some alarming statistics on fire alarm importance:

• Three out of five home fire deaths result from fires in properties without working smoke alarms
• More than one-third (38 percent) of home fire deaths result from fires in which no smoke alarms are present.
• The risk of dying in a home fire is cut in half in homes with working smoke alarms.

Reason #1. Safety- Electrical work can be dangerous and wiring done incorrectly can lead to hazardous situations. You and your family’s safety is not worth the risk- call a professional who is trained thoroughly in safely regulations.

Reason#2. Prevent Future Headaches- Some people believe by doing the work themselves, they will save on money and expedite their project. The truth is, that when you hire a professional the job will be done right the first time and you will avoid problems down the road. A licensed electrician knows the electrical and building codes to ensure safety and quality of installation.

Reason #3. Protect Your Home- Don’t cut corners when it comes to electrical projects.
