Why Consider Rewiring Your Home?
As your home ages, so does its electrical system. Electrical wires and other components can become less effective, increasing the risk of electrical hazards. If your home is several decades old, your electrical system is likely unable to handle the increased load of modern appliances and electronics safely. Rewiring your home brings your electrical system up to date.
Home rewiring has several benefits, including:
- Eliminating Safety Hazards
- Increasing Your Home’s Property Value
- Improving the Capacity of Your Electrical System
- Potentially Reducing Your Electrical Bills

Rewiring should always be performed by a licensed electrician. DIY rewiring can be dangerous and is often illegal due to the risk of electrical fires, injuries, and damage to the home.
How do you know if your home may need rewiring?
An experienced electrician can tell you if your home needs total rewiring or more minor repairs. If you notice any of these signs, it is probably time to schedule an inspection by a licensed electrician.
Your home may need to be rewired if:
- Your home is more than 30-40 years old.
- The circuits in your electrical panel are constantly tripping.
- You rely on extension cords because there are not enough outlets.
- Your home has two-prong outlets (instead of grounded, three-prong outlets).
- You are experiencing frequent flickering lights that are not solved by changing lightbulbs.
- You notice a persistent burning smell, buzzing sound, or hot or discolored outlets and light switches.
- Your home has outdated components, such as aluminum wiring or knob-and-tube systems.
- You have recently remodeled or added major new appliances that place an increased load on your electrical system.

How does rewiring a house work?

We often recommend that homeowners and their families stay off-site for their own safety and comfort while the project is completed.
