See What Our Customers Are Saying!
My experience with Davis Heating,Cooling, Plumbing and Electric was as good as it gets. We had no water, major leak in our yard so we just googled Davis mainly because they advertised 24 hour service. Great decision that was. James was awesome, really knew exactly what to do and really polite. Really good operator as well. Will definitely use Davis in the future.
Joshua was an incredible technician. Timely and incredibly knowledgeable. He was thorough, patient and answered all our questions regarding how our new thermostat works, the overall heating system and even checked an additional item associated with the unit under our house. He gave us a mini heat/cooling lesson that really helped us to understand how the system works, what had happened in our case and how to prepare for the coming cold months when we are here and traveling. Highly recommend Davis Heating/Cooling. And ask for Joshua if you can request a technician!!
James W was friendly and courteous. His assistant was very good. Everything is working great. I look at my new water lines and feel relaxed because there should be no more problems when the water is shutdown by the city. Every faucet/fixture has it's own cut off valve.

Matthew took the time to pinpoint the problem and to find a solution. Very professional technician. Follow up with Dakota to evaluate our options for our 30+ year old system was scheduled quickly and was very professional. A walk through was performed that detailed all the installation processes. Material availability was noted at the time as being a potential issue. Another project required a change to the work order and required an additional site vist. All this was handled by Dakota as well as creative solutions to material availability. Installation was well organized and the team was able to quickly pivot on a small filter issue. The four installation technicians, Cameron, Conner, Daniel, and Hunter were all courteous, professional, and respectful. The support team at Davis were quick to deliver supplies as modifications required. Everyone one on the install team worked together to get the job done. We could not be happier with the work and the professionals that are the Davis team.
I was very pleased with my first plumbing service with Davis Heating, Cooling, Plumbing, and Electric. James did a thorough investigation of my issue, explained the problems and my options, was able to answer all my questions, and get the problem fixed on the same day. He even tolerated my thieving dog being curious about the field of plumbing… I look forward to working with him on future plumbing needs.
TC and Josh were very professional and did a great job! Highly recommend Davis Heating, Cooling, Plumbing, and Electric. Gives me such piece of mind knowing that my home is safe and running efficiently. Thank you!

Travis J. also did a fantastic job! Y'all have an amazing team working for you!
Very pleased with the people. From the office to the technician that came out, a most pleasant experience. Everyone goes through every detail and nothing is overlooked. I’m a long time customer and these professionals earned my trust years ago. They go well beyond what is expected and know their business. In these times when most strive for “Good Enough “ The Davis team goes for “Excellence”. I highly recommend Davis and will continue to be a loyal customer.
Hello from NC - long and simple...from the young ladies running the day to day operations to Eric the AC technician, a new customer from out of state has been born. My AC unit went down and I knew from the prior owner "Davis Heating" was the installation team he used, so I called them for help. It all moved so smoothly I was a little shocked. I was informed multiple times as to Eric's ETA - that system works like a champ! Then Eric got himself into the condo to quickly assess the issue. 3 minutes of his time and a quick phone call and I was back in business. That my friends is an A+++ for customer service, honesty, integrity and just good old fashion business! Thanks for making me feel like a "VIP" - K Spencer
Great experience overall. From Matthew coming out to inspect my system and giving me options, to Dakota coming out a couple days later to give me price quotes/options, to the guys coming over to install a new system. AJ, Hunter and Trent did a fantastic job, explaining things to me and answering all of my questions. Did a great cleanup job too. I will definitely call Davis Heating and Cooling anytime I need help in the future. Thank you for the wonderful service!!

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.

Why Electrical Inspections Matter for Your Home

  • 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.
