Professional Electric Inspection
Electrical inspections help identify problems before they cause damage, safety issues, or power failure. Our licensed electricians at Minuteman Services complete thorough inspections for homes and businesses in Idaho Falls, ID. We check panels, breakers, circuits, outlets, and wiring for proper function and code compliance. This process helps catch hidden hazards like loose connections, overloaded circuits, or outdated systems. Many insurance companies and real estate transactions now require proof of a recent electrical inspection. Even newer homes can develop problems over time that need to be addressed early. We provide a clear, written report of all findings and recommendations. If repairs are needed, we can handle them right away. With regular inspections, your electrical system stays safe, efficient, and ready for future upgrades.

I really appreciate your guy coming here to take care of my furnace. He was kind, helpful, and took care of the problem in a short amount of time. I would recommend your services to any. Thank you so much!

We had to replace an outdated heating system. Jordan, Travis and Dillion were awesome. Great customer service. They also helped us get a rebate through our power company. Highly recommended.

Competent. Priced fairly. Professional. Can't say enough good about these guys.

Jordan and crew fixed my mini-split leak quickly and got me running again before summer hits. They were professional and communicated well. Their pricing was very competitive - nearly 1/3 the cost that one of their competitors quoted me for the same repair. Would definitely call them back for future work!

Minuteman Services are very efficient, explained what the job entailed and completed it well. Appreciated timely service, knowledge and efficiency!

Called on a late Saturday and got an immediate response from Shane. He helped me trouble shoot and saved me big money, fixed our eletrical problem. Cannot say thank you enough!!!

Our furnace went out, and Travis and the team were able to quickly get over and give us an estimate on a repair and a replacement. (As a courtesy, they even have a lock box with space heaters if you need to get through a night or two without heat.) We ended up not only replacing the furnace, but adding central air as well. They were able to get it done in 2 days, and the system is super quiet and distributes the heat and A/C really nicely. They even added an outlet to the outside of the house, which is great because we didn't have any before! There was a small issue about where the furnace was venting out. We have an enclosed deck, and it was just venting out onto the deck. Despite not being in the bid, they routed the vent out to the side so that we wouldn't be breathing in any more exhaust/CO! However, it didn't look as clean as it could be the first time they did it, and we had some suggestions to make it look better that Travis fully supported and said that they would take care of (even though it was like an additional project in the first place). They redid it with a good attitude, and it looks really clean now! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Minuteman! Even got this nice red hoodie as an appreciation gift 😀

Excellent Service Top Notch Service Jason And Dillon And Crew Very Experienced A Jop Well Done Thank You All So Very Much. Brian Ruth Kidder

We had Minuteman retrofit our main ductwork to make the air distribution more efficient and eliminate "hot spots." The crew was professional and efficient. I'm very pleased with their work. I recommend them without reservation!

You guys were great. Best customer service I've had in a while always returned your calls and worked with you as far as financing and did a great job in a timely manner would 100% recommend them.

Minuteman lives up to their name! Called before they showed up, arrived on time and provided an same-day estimate for a furnace replacement. Again, called and showed up on time on the day of the replacement, and finished within the promised time. Talked through the operation/maintenance of the new unit and maintenance plans and made sure all questions were answered. ...and the price could not be beat (less than half of some others!) I'd give them 10 stars if I could!

Quick to respond and very reasonable and thorough. I've had them do a few things and they've done it with great quality.

My furnace went out while it was -5° outside and Minuteman was able to be there quickly and get it running fast! Other companies that have looked at my furnace in the past have said it’s past its life expectancy and that I need replace it, but Minuteman took the time to make repairs and explain proper maintenance to try to get more life out of my older furnace! They never once mentioned a replacement.

This company provided incredible service. They came to our home quickly to inspect our furance, which in the end did need replaced. The employee who came to our home was so helpful and informative with each step of the process. The next day, employees came to install the new furnace and worked diligently and thoroughly. I highly recommend this company to anyone needing furance/HVAC needs. I will definitely be a return customer.

Travis was excellent in finding out what was wrong with a furnace he was checking out for me! I would use Minuteman anytime! They are great people.

My daughter’s cadet heater stopped working after smoking and they came same day to diagnose and replace the unit. Thank you for caring for our family in a timely manner!

Jason and Trevor were very friendly and knowledgeable in replacing our furnace. Highly recommended.

Minuteman Services go the extra mile to do all they can to help! Jarrod and Travis were fantastic! They were very efficient and quick to come out to fix the problem. I highly recommend these guys. They know what they're doing. Thank you!

What an amazing team of people! They work so hard to take care of their clients. They got my furnace replaced quickly so that I could keep myself and my dogs warm in the middle winter. Thank you!

The guys at Minute Man are the best. Very professional and knowledgeable I highly recommend them.

I was tight for time and they scheduled me in. Huge help. And the tech they sent was professional, personable and quick. These folks get the nod for all HVAC related work in the future.

Our whole family in the area uses Minuteman Services! From electrical work to HVAC work. We just had them install two brand new heating systems on Dec 12 & 13th 2024. The AC systems will be installed in the spring. Very professional and willing to answer all my questions. Their workers were very respectful of the house when they did the install putting down floor protectant and cleaning up everything.

I was very pleased with the thorough evaluation and repair that Travis provided. In the future, I will contact your company and request Travis. Thank you!

They were very helpful, explained the wiring problems and went above and beyond in getting the parts we needed. They were polite, respectful of our home, and diligently cleaned up after their work. I appreciated very all their hard work.

They did an excellent job in diagnosing and repairing the two issues we had. They were courteous and tidy during their visit. I would definately use them again.

Timely and professional. Stayed to get the job done during the holidays. Would recommend.

All the guys at minute man services did a great job at our place. we were impressed with thier professional job they did for us. They all were courteous and punctual. They cleaned up too!! I would recommend then highly. Thank you again.

They service anything from small jobs to big jobs. Extremely hard to find a company that will do a small electrical job. These guys do it all. Fast,friendly service for a reasonable price. Highly recommend this company for your electrical needs and service 👏.

I was having an issue with a breaker and these folks did a great job fixing it. Ted pinpointed the problem and Shane and crew came out and fixed it. I highly recommend this company!

We were very impressed in the timely manner that Minuteman serviced our furnace! They were very helpful and answered all of our questions. We will be calling them again!

Great service, did exactly what they said they would do and got the new furnace installed.

Ted did some electrical work for us, was super responsive on the phone and helped me trouble shoot multiple issues that were 100% my ignorance not any fault of the work he did. He also made some thoughtful suggestions to improve the ideas we had. Update Dec 2024: I needed electrical work done on a new home after moving and Minuteman came through again! They were on time, had good ideas to help me get all the outlets i needed and were diligent about making sure I had everything done to my satisfaction. Great crew. Great service.

These guys always do great work and respond right away. Highly recommend for all HVAC needs

Great company. Travis communicated well, showed up when he said he would, offered a timely appointment and options to proactively care for my equipment going forward. That was a painless service call- broken heater experience! Thank you.

Minuteman's electricians are awesome. I needed help with some breakers that were constantly flipping. They were able to quickly identify the issue and gave me several options on what to do. Their bid was in range of what I would expect that kind of repair to take. They were very professional, on time, and patient with all my questions so I can be a better informed homeowner. 5/5. I highly recommend them!

Fast. Good work. Great prices. They are great to work with. Highly recommend

This Crew did an amazing job that came through and did what they needed to do showed me after what they did and cleaned up everything after themselves and sat and explained and had asked us if we had any questions or if we need anything

Justin and Jarod ROCK!!...AND TRAVIS 😉 Sorry Travis, for some reason I keep mistaking you for a Justin. Travis, ROCKS!!! It is so good to have our furnace up and running again. Great work and fair price. Will be wanting a complete furnace upgrade through Minuteman. Cannot say enough positive things about this company.

Jarrod was the absolute best. He came and fixed our issue with our heat. He was fast and he did an amazing just. 10/10 service. Ask for Jarrod he did the best service and was professional.

Very responsive and gave me great customer service! They were able to get out there the same day and fix my furnace. Highly recommend 👍

We used Minuteman Services to do an annual service on the HVAC system in our office. They were very easy to work with and did a great job. Their fees were not exorbitant either! They didn't waste time, explained things to me and offered to set up a maintenance plan for winter and summer. I would highly recommend them for both home and office HVAC needs.

Minuteman was great. Very responsive and flexible, timely delivery, made the whole swap-out a complete breeze. Highly recommend.

My main reason for replacing my old HVAC system is to save money on my high electrical bill. Minute Man Service did an outstanding job replacing my 20 year old HVAC system and replaced it with a more efficient HVAC system that includes a 2 stage a/c & thermostat. Jarrod Mount was the tech who removed the old system and installed the new system. Jarrod was also the person who came to my house and submitted the bid I could not reject because of the very reasonable price. I therefore give Minuteman Services my highest recommendation.

This is best I've worked with. Affordable, knowledgeable, friendly and professional! I will definitely call on them again. Thank you guys.

Ted and his crew came on time, established their plan of action, ran wiring through the crawlspace to exterior conduit and heat cables on the roof, ensured they left no trash or tracks in spite of the rain and carefully explained how to use the system before they left. A superb job by a group of professionals!

Great service. Friendly, detail oriented and very professional. A great company for your electrical needs. I will use this company again and again.

I had the best experience with Jarrod, Shane and the Minuteman Services crew. They were honest, reliable & professional to work with. They installed a cadet heater, sub panel, washer & dryer plugs as well as interior and exterior lights in our Shed. They even helped me choose the fixtures which I appreciated! They completed the entire job within one day making sure they did not interrupt our renters at our Cabin which was very thoughtful. Can't wait to work with them again!

Very prompt service, extremely knowledgeable staff and courteous interaction.

Travis was very polite, knowledgeable, and efficient. He explained Contracts for service and we were pleased with no hidden costs. We’re confident we’ll get what we pay for.

Minuteman services was amazing! They provided a quote for my furnace replacement, answered all of my questions, and provided wonderful communication. The day they installed my new furnace, they were very kind and did a great job. If you need a new furnace, this is the service to use! Thank you Minuteman Services!

My husband and I just opened a new business, and needed some last minute electrical work done before we could open. Minute Man was able to get there very quickly and help us with what we needed for a reasonable price. I definitely recommend them!

We used them for an electrical problem in a mobile home. They were very quick on finding the problem and getting it fixed. Price was very fair! Highly recommend them!

Minuteman services did a fantastic job installing the electrical in our basement. They were quick to respond and schedule us. The communication was great as well during the install. We were never left wondering if or when something would be done. They gave clear timelines and stuck to them. The company was very honest and reasonable.

Ted and Shane did excellent work upsizing my electrical panel and connecting the heat tape for my gutters. They are both easy to talk to and very professional. I highly recommend their work to anyone.

Always an excellent job. These guys are professionals and know what they are doing. And we can always count on them.

Great experience with this company. First of all honesty and integrity, I appreciated his friendliness, communication, he was on time, even had it done before he thought it would be. Definitely would recommend them. Local Family owned and operated was also a plus for me. Sitting here in my nice cool house on a hot day! Thanks MinuteMan Services!

My air conditioner quit working. Called Minuteman Services the next morning and they showed up by noon and had the issue resolved within the hour. Great customer service, and quick response time.

These guys are amazing, excellent technicians and fair prices. you guys rock!!!

Completely recommend Minuteman Services. We have had them repair our AC unit at a much more reasonable price than competitors. Most recently they have done annual maintenance on our AC unit and furnace. The techs and the owners are honest, prompt, courteous, helpful, and knowledgeable and won’t try to sell you unnecessary services. I will call them every time for our HVAC needs.

Jarrod and his team are amazing and very professional and transparent. Highly recommended for all your service needs!!

Minutemen services was fantastic to work with! We had to replace our furnace and our ac. They were quick and efficient and definitely had a much more reasonable price than some other companies that are around town. Highly recommend them to anyone.

Always makes our tenants a priority and is very friendly and knowledgeable. These guy are my go to for any HVAC or Electrical needs!

Ted and his team did an excellent job in installing the electrical wirings and connection for my heat tape. I highly recommend him.

Friendly. On-time. Work was done right. Reasonable prices. Can't go wrong with the locally owned Minutemen!

During the last repair of our AC unit, we spoke with Minuteman about the eventual replacement of our AC unit. Unfortunately, that happened sooner rather than later (no fault of Minute Service) and they were able to give us an accurate quote, without having to come back, because they had taken some detailed notes and photos the previous service visit. They provided a fair and reasonable quote and even offered to help provide some temporary measures to ensure we had some relief from the hottest temps of the summer so far. Great work, they protected the area they were working from damage and kept me informed of the status. Highly recommend Minuteman Service for any of your HVAC needs

We used Minuteman to service our furnace and to fix a few electrical issues we had to address before selling. Communication and scheduling were great, I was able to get someone to my home within the same week. I felt they were very knowledgeable and efficient; I also feel that I paid a fair price for the service. I would highly recommend for any electrical or HVAC needs.

I can not say enough positive things about this service! Travis was extremely professional- always kept us informed on status via a quick text update, the price was extremely reasonable and the service was much quicker than we expected during a very busy season! Give them a call- you won’t regret it!

Travis was AMAZING. Showed up early, was so kind, responsive, and taught as he went. His prices were so fair! You have a customer for life!

I had a fire at my house due to my AC and needed electrical. I was recommended Minuteman Services by a co-worker. I am so glad she did. Jarrod got someone out to get me a quote same day. When I was ready for the repairs, I called Ted and he set me up the next day. Everyone we have come in contact with has been very nice and understanding. Their prices are amazing too. I will be using Minuteman Services for all my HVAC and electrical needs from now on.

Amazing service, outstanding work by Travis. Affordable prices. I’ll be using them again in the near future

Super friendly, easy to work with. They were in and out. Great communication

Jordan and Aiden were amazing. The customer service was exceptional and they definitely went the extra mile for me and my business! I Highly recommend them!

Great Service and great job on all their jobs they did for us!! I recommend them highly!!

I am a Senior so having a company like Minute Man do repairs & installations with such professionalism & caring was an extremely positive experience. Dylan, Devon & Travis are an outstanding team of workers. When they left I had no questions because they explained & went over everything. As well as the clean up, it was as if no one had been here. Thank you!

Travis was quick to respond to our request for assistance in setting up a new mini-split system. The team was very good to work with and their installation was clean and quick. They were able to finish in 3 days after projecting 4 days originally. They were very good to communicate alterations that were necessary and include us in the decision. The team was considerate of our schedule and made sure we were pleased with the end product, which we are.

Ted was great when I called to schedule and followed up the day of service. Shane called to let me know he was on the way and did a great job. He even cleaned up behind himself, the only way you could tell he was there, was the excellent job done. All around great experience and fair price. Thank you so much.

I filled out a request online and they contacted me that same day. They showed up the next day to do a bid and started the job the following business day! They did a great job, were affordable, professional and courteous! I would highly recommend Minuteman Services for your electrical work!

We had minute man services replace our furnace, I am very pleased with their work! Definitely will be recommending to family/friends.

I needed help with my furnace in a hurry and had no idea who to trust. A friend recommended Minute Man and they were great! Timely, professional, quality service for a good price. I highly recommend them to others!

We had Minuteman do some electrical work for us recently, running new ethernet cable for security cameras. Shayne was very responsive, prompt, friendly, and did a great job. Definitely recommend them!

Minuteman came out to replace our heaters, put in new ventilation fans, and install a heating/AC unit. They were very respectful, friendly, and even took time to play fetch with our dog. They were alway here when they said they would be, and called each time to let us know they were on their way. They took care to treat our home like their own. They took precautions to keep things clean, and left the floors and things as clean or cleaner than when they got here. Can not recommend them enough!!!

Contacted me back very quickly after waiting over a year for a previous company to show up. They were quick and professional. Awesome work. Jordan and devyn did amazing

Most Common Electrical Inspection Questions
Electrical inspections are a key part of maintaining safety in your home or building. They help identify risks before they become serious issues. Minuteman Services provides licensed inspections that keep your electrical system up to code and functioning safely.
Homes should be inspected every few years, especially if they are older or have had recent upgrades. Electrical systems wear down over time and may not meet current safety codes. Our electricians look for signs of wear, corrosion, or improper installation during each inspection. If you plan to sell, remodel, or add new appliances, an inspection should come first. Minuteman Services recommends routine checks to prevent unexpected repairs or outages. Many homeowners are unaware of hidden issues like loose connections or outdated panels until they cause problems. Scheduling a regular inspection helps reduce risk and protect your home’s value.
An inspection also verifies that all visible wiring, service panels, and outlets are working safely. Minuteman Services checks each element for code compliance and signs of future failure. A full report is provided with clear findings and recommended next steps. Most problems found during inspections can be fixed before they lead to safety hazards. Our electricians will explain everything in plain language and never pressure you into work you do not need. We believe safety and transparency go hand in hand. With the right schedule in place, your electrical system stays safe and reliable year round.
Routine inspections also help homeowners avoid surprise costs. Unchecked issues like overheating panels or frayed wires can lead to damage or emergency calls. Minuteman Services helps you stay ahead of those risks with scheduled evaluations. Many homeowners add inspections to their seasonal home maintenance checklist. With regular service, your system remains efficient, code compliant, and ready for the demands of modern technology. The peace of mind is worth it.
A professional inspection includes a full check of all accessible electrical components. This means visible wiring, breaker panels, outlets, switches, and grounding are all reviewed for safety and performance. Our licensed electricians test circuits for proper voltage and look for signs of overheating, wear, or faulty installation. We also inspect your electrical panel for outdated or recalled breakers. If there are signs of previous work done incorrectly, we document those issues as well. Minuteman Services provides a detailed report after every inspection that explains any problems and the steps needed to fix them.
The inspection goes beyond just looking at wires. We check for loose outlets, tripped breakers, and any buzzing or hot components. These are signs that a larger problem may exist. Older homes often have wiring that no longer meets modern codes, especially if they have aluminum wiring or knob and tube systems. Minuteman Services will make clear recommendations based on what we find and walk you through what it means for your home’s safety. We take time to explain the results without using scare tactics.
The goal is to give you a clear picture of the system’s condition. That way, you can plan upgrades or repairs with confidence. If your home needs electrical improvements, we are ready to help.

An inspection is one of the most important steps in the buying or selling process. Buyers need to know if the electrical system is safe, functional, and up to code. Minuteman Services performs detailed inspections that check all visible wiring, outlets, panels, and fixtures. These inspections reveal hidden problems like unsafe connections, outdated materials, or overloaded circuits. Sellers also benefit by identifying and fixing issues before listing. That helps avoid delays or price drops during the transaction. Electrical inspections help both parties move forward with confidence.
For buyers, skipping an inspection can lead to costly surprises. Older homes often have code violations that require upgrades. These issues can affect safety and insurance coverage. Minuteman Services helps identify these problems before closing, so you can negotiate or plan repairs. Our report outlines every concern in simple language. Buyers deserve full knowledge of what they are getting. We make sure you understand the condition of the electrical system before making a commitment.
Sellers who complete inspections early can fix small problems that would otherwise scare buyers away. A clean inspection report adds value and credibility to your listing. If repairs are needed, they can be handled on your schedule instead of in a rush. Minuteman Services helps both sides have a smooth and informed sale. Our inspections protect your investment and keep the transaction moving forward.
Preparing for an electrical inspection ensures the process goes smoothly and issues can be addressed quickly. Homeowners should start by making sure all areas around the electrical panel and major appliances are clear. This allows our electrician to safely access breakers, wiring, and other system components without obstruction. Make sure attic doors or crawlspace entries are also accessible if those areas contain wiring. We recommend checking that all light switches and outlets are visible and not blocked by furniture or stored items. Preparation reduces delays and gives the technician full visibility into your system.
Another step you can take is gathering any previous inspection reports or permits for past electrical work. This helps our team understand what upgrades or repairs have already been completed. If you have had recent remodels, it is important to let us know. Our electrician can focus on those areas to confirm they meet current codes. If your home has appliances that were recently added or moved, those circuits may need extra attention. Having this information ready helps avoid surprises and speeds up the inspection.
Finally, make a list of any electrical issues you have noticed. This includes flickering lights, frequently tripped breakers, or outlets that no longer work. Sharing this list during the inspection helps us troubleshoot specific problems and provide accurate solutions. Our electricians at Minuteman Services value your input because you know your home best. Being prepared leads to a more productive inspection and a safer home overall. We will take it from there and deliver a clear report with our findings and next steps.
An electrical inspection can uncover a wide range of problems that are not always obvious. Common issues include overloaded circuits, improper grounding, or old aluminum wiring. These problems can increase fire risk or reduce the efficiency of your system. Our electricians also look for exposed wires, missing junction boxes, or incorrect breaker sizes. Even if your home seems to be working fine, these hidden risks can cause damage over time. Inspections bring those issues to light before they become emergencies.
Another issue often found during inspections is outdated electrical panels. Older systems may not support modern appliances or meet today’s safety codes. Panels with known safety recalls or brands with poor safety history are flagged immediately. Minuteman Services reviews the panel, checks the condition of breakers, and ensures connections are tight and secure. We also verify that surge protection, GFCI, and AFCI devices are present where required. These safety measures are critical in bathrooms, kitchens, garages, and outdoor areas.
Our inspections also look for signs of amateur electrical work. Homeowners or unlicensed contractors may have installed outlets, lighting, or circuits incorrectly. These shortcuts can cause system instability or create fire hazards. Minuteman Services documents all unsafe conditions and explains the repairs needed. Our inspections are about more than passing a checklist. They are about keeping your home or business safe and ready for the future.
Our inspection process starts with a visual check of all accessible components. This includes the main service panel, subpanels, outlets, light switches, and visible wiring. We look for damage, wear, or code violations that may not be obvious to the homeowner. Our electricians then test circuits using professional-grade tools to confirm proper voltage and detect hidden problems. We examine breakers for signs of heat damage, tripping, or incorrect sizing. If grounding and bonding are not adequate, we will explain the risks and recommend solutions.
Minuteman Services follows the latest National Electrical Code standards and local Idaho Falls regulations. Each inspection is customized to the property type and age of the electrical system. We take detailed notes, photos, and measurements to create a comprehensive report. If any critical issues are found, we walk you through them in plain language. Our focus is on helping you understand your system, not confusing you with jargon. We respect your time and deliver clear next steps you can act on.
After the inspection, you receive a written report with all findings and our professional recommendations. We will answer your questions, explain priority items, and schedule repairs if needed. Our team is fully licensed and trained to work on both residential and commercial electrical systems. With Minuteman Services, you get accurate inspections backed by years of experience. Safety and quality always come first.
If problems are found during an inspection, our team provides a clear summary and recommendations. You will receive a detailed report outlining each issue, what it means, and how it can be resolved. Minuteman Services explains each problem in plain terms so you understand the risk and importance. Some issues may require immediate attention, such as exposed wires or overheated breakers. Others may be long-term concerns that you can schedule for future repair. We work with you to prioritize fixes based on safety and your budget.
Once you approve the repairs, we schedule licensed electricians to complete the work. All repairs are performed to code and documented for your records. If the inspection was part of a home sale or insurance requirement, we also provide proof of correction. Minuteman Services does not push unnecessary upgrades. We focus on resolving the real problems uncovered in your inspection. Our electricians arrive on time, complete the work efficiently, and leave your home clean and safe.
After repairs are complete, we can re-inspect those areas to verify everything is fixed. Some homeowners choose to sign up for a service plan at that point to keep their system monitored. We believe in long-term relationships built on honesty and professionalism. Inspections are not just about pointing out problems. They are about helping you protect your property with confidence. Minuteman Services is here to support you every step of the way.
