Safe and Reliable Home Rewiring

As your home’s electrical wiring ages, you may see signs that it needs replacement. You might start hearing strange buzzing sounds. You may also notice the lights in your home dimming or flickering. Those signs show your wiring is either wearing out or can’t support your electrical needs.

It’s important to understand that such symptoms are more than an inconvenience. They’re a sign that your home’s wiring may pose a danger to your property and family. Buzzing sounds, for instance, can point to a short circuit. That can result from a damaged or loose wire somewhere in your home. The sound comes from an electrical current jumping between a wire and a metal surface. It could lead to someone getting a shock or even starting an electrical fire. Dimming lights might mean you’re using more electricity than your wiring can handle. That will cause wires to overheat and result in failures.

You may also discover that your home needs new wiring when adding new electrical appliances. For example, you may need new wiring to support things like EV chargers and other high-wattage devices. You may even need a service upgrade, which would call for a new electrical panel at least. Our electricians can assess your needs and create a plan to meet them.

Look for the following signs that your home needs new electrical wiring:
  • Your home has knob-and-tube wiring
  • You experience frequent breaker trips
  • Your home has two-prong ungrounded outlets
  • Your home has aluminum wiring
  • Burning smells when using outlets

Updating Outdated Electrical Systems

If your house was built in the 1970s, there’s an additional concern: aluminum wiring. While it was once considered a cost-effective alternative, aluminum wiring has proven to be a fire hazard due to its tendency to expand and contract, as well as loosen at connections. This, or if you have knob and tube wiring, can create dangerous overheating conditions.

When you need to rewire your home, you might worry about damage to your walls and ceilings. Our electricians use many techniques to reduce that type of damage. For example, they may reroute some wiring through unfinished spaces. They can also fish wires through closed walls. They use existing openings, like outlets and switch boxes.

During a whole-home rewire, you’ll need to clear furniture and give us access to walls and outlets. Power will be off for long stretches, so plan ahead. Sometimes, it’s safest to stay elsewhere while we work. We’ll handle everything carefully and keep you updated every step of the way.

Benefits of Professional Rewiring

Replacing your home’s electrical wiring isn’t a DIY-friendly exercise. For one thing, working with electrical wiring can be dangerous for an amateur. You run the risk of electrocution and fires, not to mention there’s no guarantee the work gets done right. Those aren’t chances any responsible homeowner should take. Our electricians can properly plan and execute your electrical replacement. We’ll make sure your new electrical wiring works well. You can count on it for years of safe and reliable service.

Hiring an electrician to take charge of your electrical replacement has many benefits:
  • Obtain permits
  • Code compliance
  • Complies with insurance requirements
  • Reduced long-term costs

Enhanced Safety and Performance

There are plenty of good reasons to update your home’s wiring beyond the age of your current wiring. It lets you add smart devices that weren’t available during your last wiring update. For example, you can have GFCI and AFCI protection built into your home’s circuit breakers. It can protect you and everyone at home from electrocution. It also helps reduce the risk of electrical fires. You can also add whole-house surge protection. That reroutes excess voltage away from your home’s wiring when necessary. It can prevent damage to your wiring and your home’s electronic devices.
