Electrical Fixes
Outlets and switches have a limited life of wear and tear before they should be replaced. Lights upgraded to LEDs will draw less power and provide better light with color temperature selection. Have a fan put in to circulate air and keep electric costs down. Get an outside outlet installed in a weatherproof box.
