Our local builders are skipping basic electrical safety steps
I keep seeing unfinished wiring in the new houses on Pine Street, like missing GFCI outlets near sinks. This is a huge shock hazard, especially with kids around. The crew told me they're behind schedule, but that's no excuse. Someone needs to check these jobs before they get signed off.

Wait, they're skipping GFCI outlets near sinks? That's not just a shortcut, that's asking for a disaster! Water and electricity are so dangerous together, and with kids playing around? I can't believe they'd risk that just to save a few minutes. The inspectors really need to catch this before anyone moves in.

Yeah I just read about a contractor getting fined for that exact thing. Cutting corners like that never ends well.
