Wiring & Rewiring Services We Offer
Whole-Home Rewiring
For properties with unsafe wiring methods or limited grounding, we remove outdated conductors, install modern wiring, and bring your system up to the current code.
Targeted Circuit Replacements
If the issue is limited to certain rooms, like kitchens, bathrooms, laundry areas, or outdoor circuits, we can rewire those areas without touching the rest of the house.
Knob-&-Tube & Aluminum Wiring Removal
We replace outdated wiring systems and address weak connection points that commonly lead to overheating and electrical hazards.
Wiring for Remodels, Additions & Conversions
From new home layouts to garage or attic conversions, we install wiring and dedicated circuits that support your contractor’s plans.
Dedicated Circuits for High-Demand Equipment
Whether you’re adding an EV charger, a major appliance, or a new HVAC system, we add the right capacity while checking that your electrical panel can handle the load.
Panel & Grounding Upgrades
During rewiring, we often uncover the need for panel improvements or grounding corrections. Our team handles these upgrades, so your electrical system works seamlessly.
Light Commercial Wiring & Tenant Build-Outs
Restaurants, offices, and retail locations rely on us for safe, efficient circuit additions, outlet replacements, and lighting rewires.
Our Process: Transparent & Careful Work
We begin with an assessment of your current wiring, identifying age, condition, and load demands. We’ll outline your options, provide clear pricing, and schedule the work at a convenient time. During the job, we protect finished areas, keep wiring neatly organized, and minimize wall access where possible. Before we leave, we test every circuit and review the results with you.
Signs It’s Time to Rewire
Electrical problems often show up in subtle ways.
You may need an inspection if you notice:
- Breakers tripping or fuses blowing repeatedly
- Outlets that feel warm or show scorch marks
- Aluminum, knob-and-tube, or cloth-insulated wiring
- Flickering lights or buzzing switches
- Two-prong, ungrounded outlets
- Burning odors near outlets or panels
- Renovations or additions tied into outdated circuits
- Not enough capacity for modern appliances, EV chargers, or HVAC systems

FAQs
Can I rewire my home in stages?
Yes. Many homeowners start with high-priority areas like kitchens and bathrooms, then complete the rest of the property over time.
Why is aluminum or knob-and-tube wiring a concern?
These older systems often have degraded connections that can overheat or fail under modern electrical loads.
Will rewiring damage my walls?
Some access is needed, but we plan wiring routes carefully to keep openings to a minimum. If patching is necessary, we’ll go over that as part of the project scope.
Can you add wiring for an EV charger or HVAC unit?
Yes. We’ll confirm your panel’s capacity, add a dedicated circuit, and update the wiring to current standards.
