ElectralCheck: Local Code Compliance Verification Service

A licensed electrician network that provides remote photo/video review and written compliance reports for DIY box upgrades. Homeowners submit photos of their existing setup and planned modification; a local licensed electrician reviews it against their specific jurisdiction's code (NEC + local amendments) and provides a detailed compliance report with pass/fail verdict and remediation steps if needed.

Original Problem

Homeowners uncertain about electrical code compliance for DIY box upgrades

DIY homeowners upgrading electrical boxes face confusion about code requirements, safety standards, and whether their modifications are legally compliant. They lack clear guidance on proper installation procedures and risk either doing unsafe work or paying expensive electricians for simple upgrades. Current solutions (forums, generic guides) provide conflicting advice without definitive answers tied to local codes.
