Common questions

How much does whole house rewiring cost in North Carolina?

Whole house rewiring cost in North Carolina depends on square footage, number of circuits, accessibility of attics and crawlspaces, and whether the panel is upgraded at the same time. We provide an itemized quote after a walkthrough. Call (888) 592-6466 to schedule.

How long does it take to rewire a house?

A typical North Carolina home takes 3–10 working days depending on size. We phase the work so you keep power in the rooms you need most.

Will you have to tear up my walls?

We use fishing techniques through attics, crawlspaces and closets to minimize openings. Any small access holes are kept tidy and documented for your drywall contractor.

Is aluminum wiring dangerous?

Aluminum branch wiring expands and contracts more than copper, loosening connections over time. Replacement or approved remediation is recommended for homes in North Carolina, NC with aluminum wiring.

Do I have to move out during a rewire?

Most families stay in their home. We coordinate the schedule so bedrooms and the kitchen stay usable as much as possible.
