We had an excellent experience. It’s clear that management has instilled a real sense of ownership and accountability in their employees.

Facing an incoming snowstorm on a Saturday, we had an urgent furnace issue. Wendy answered the call and immediately took charge—she sourced the needed products and coordinated with the team to make sure our furnace was working that very day.

Her actions were a testament to her dedication, her strong relationships with the team, and the leadership culture at the company.

Erica Brown

Amazing experience using Davis today! Matthew came out after I had a concern with my thermostat! He checked it and also checked everything else for me as well! Gave me great advice on some things for the future, and answered every single question I had for him (which was a lot haha!) I was given multiple options on how I wanted to proceed with any issues he found. He was very honest and the prices they have are BEYOND fair! Each price I was given included the labor and service call fee and was still very fair! Overall this company turned a stressful time into a stress free time and put my anxiety at ease! Will DEFINITELY recommend to everyone!

We had our sewer line in our basement backed up and tried calling a few different companies to come out and fix it. Being that it was on a Sunday nobody wanted to come out. We ended up getting a hold of Davis who sent out James. He was very knowledgeable and explained everything that he was going to do. He did an amazing job and by the end of the night we were good to go. When James was done he also brought some towels and spray and cleaned up the mess that he made from the job he did. The next day Davis sent over a gentleman by the name of Dakota who ran a camera through our sewer lines. He was there to see why our sewer backed up. He was very professional and very knowledgeable on the job he was there to do. Between James and Dakota it was determined that because of where my house sits at the bottom of two Hills. When it rains we get all the rain water backing up the sewer lines. We ended up needing a check valve installed which meant that a crew needed to come over to our house and cut the concrete in my basement and dig out the stone to get to the sewer line so they could install this check valve. Victor and Hunter showed up and did an amazing job. They were very professional and tried to keep everything clean for us by putting plastic up. Another gentleman by the name of Will came over to give Victor and Hunter help on the job. Between the three of them they were able to get the job done and get it done fast. They brought in a vacuum and vacuum the floor, then they swept the floor, and then they swiffered the basement floor to try to get it as clean as possible. They also wipe down the Walls around the area they were in. From start to finish Davis did an amazing job. If there is any Plumbing work that you need done I would definitely give them a call.

Damien and Jacob installed a new hot water heater and water softener system. They did a GREAT GREAT JOB!! They explained what they were doing in a very understandable way. I really enjoyed talking to them. They were very professional and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks!!

Andrew

Philip arrived right on time(actually a bit earlier)from when he was scheduled. He was very pleasant and polite explaining every step of what he was doing. Instead of an expensive, full blown change out we agreed on an upgrade to satisfy my needs. We discussed if I wanted to make more changes what the next steps and costs would be. I was VERY satisfied with the Service Tech, his work and future suggestions.

Jennifer Porter

Everyone from the sales team to the install crew did a top notch job. Our boiler went out unexpectedly over Christmas, and Mike bent over backwards to help us get warmed up quickly and affordably. The crew showed up promptly, were very polite, and left no evidence of their visit aside from the new boiler- no mess, no damage. Very appreciative of the Davis crew for a job well done.

Tom LeNeave

We greatly appreciate Michael and Jacob doing the plumbing project in our home. We couldn't be more pleased with their very professional work. From the first day to the last day, they were very courtious, took the time to check-in with us, and made our house available each evening before they left so we could take showers and use the bathrooms. They worked quite hard the whole time and kept the project progressing well. The are men of integrity and we felt very comfortable and assured their work behind walls, under counters, and in the ceiling were top quality. We would easily go back to Davis for future projects because of them. We would highly recommend them and Davis Plumbing to anyone needing plumbing work. Thank you Michael and Jacob for a job well done.

Wendy Hayth-Perdue

Ryder spent over five hours at my elderly parents’ home resolving a sewer backup. My mom is very high-energy and outspoken, and my husband and son stepped in to help navigate the situation while I kept my dad occupied at my house.

Ryder handled everything with extraordinary patience, professionalism, and respect, especially considering all the chaos and personalities involved.

He never rushed, never complained, and delivered truly quality service for my parents. We are so grateful for his help and would absolutely recommend him.

Maribeth Schermer

Ryan did an outstanding job. He was pleasant and professional. Ryan took the time to explain the problem and how to fix it. His work was amazing and efficient. We will be using Davis again for our future HVAC needs. Thank you for your wonderful work.

What Are Electrical Inspections?

Electrical inspections examine the health of your home’s electrical systems. During these visits, our electricians check every part of your electrical network. This includes your main service panel, outlets, and switches. We look for safety risks, code violations, and efficiency issues that might be hiding in your walls.

Think of an electrical inspection as a physical for your home’s nervous system. Just like you go to the doctor for regular checkups, your electricity needs regular professional attention. Our electricians don’t just look at what’s visible; they test connections, measure voltage, and assess the entire system’s condition using specialized tools and years of field experience.

They detect fire hazards before they ignite.
They stop electrical shocks that could harm your family.
They identify energy waste that increases your bills.
They help extend the life of your appliances and fixtures.
They keep your home in compliance with electrical codes.
They catch outdated wiring that can’t handle modern demands.
They document your home’s electrical condition for insurance or real estate purposes.

Electrical Safety Checklist: What We Inspect

Our thorough inspections cover every aspect of your home’s electrical system. Here’s what you can expect us to check during your electrical safety inspection in Roanoke, VA:

Main electrical panel for loose connections and proper grounding.
Circuit breakers for signs of overheating or frequent tripping.
Outlet and switch function throughout your home.
GFCI protection in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas.
Light fixtures and ceiling fans for secure mounting.
Smoke detectors for proper placement and function.
Electrical wiring for signs of pest damage or deterioration.
Proper wire gauge for each circuit’s load.
Adequate lighting in key areas like stairs and entryways.
Signs of water damage near electrical components.
Potential hazards from amateur electrical work or renovations.
Indicators of mold or moisture issues affecting electrical systems.

Home vs. Building Electrical Inspections

Your home electrician looks for different things than a building inspector. A residential electrical inspection focuses on daily safety and functionality. We check how your switches operate, if your outlets deliver the right power, and if your lighting works correctly. We also pay special attention to areas where you and your family spend time, like bedrooms, the kitchen, and your living room.

Building inspectors, on the other hand, verify code compliance. They check if construction meets minimum safety standards and their reports satisfy legal requirements but miss many issues that impact the safety you have at home. So make sure you work with electricians who are experts at home inspections.

The building inspector gives you a pass/fail grade. We give you peace of mind and a plan for improvement and make sure that electricity runs safely through every inch of your walls.

Preparing Your Home for an Electrical Inspection

You can make your electrical inspection more effective with a few simple steps. Clear access to your electrical panel, outlets, and switches. Move furniture, storage boxes, and other items that block these areas. Your electrician needs room to work safely and efficiently.

You can also make a list of any electrical issues you’ve noticed. Maybe lights flicker in the bathtub area, or a switch feels warm to the touch. Perhaps your circuit breaker trips whenever you use certain appliances. These details help an electrician target problem areas during the inspection.

Also, gather any documentation about previous electrical work. Renovation plans, permits, or notes from other electricians provide valuable context. The more information you share, the more thorough your inspection will be. Your observations about your home’s electrical performance help us spot patterns and solve problems more quickly.
