Rewiring · Corte Madera, California
House rewiring in Corte Madera is the long-term answer when a home still runs on knob and tube, cloth-sheathed cable or aluminium branch circuits. We plan whole house rewiring in Corte Madera, California room by room so you keep power in the parts of the house you are living in while the old wiring comes out.
Scope of work
Whether you searched for whole house rewiring Corte Madera, house rewiring Corte Madera or simply electrician near me, this is the crew that turns up. We work across Corte Madera and the neighbouring California towns, and we give you the price for the described work before anything starts.
How it goes
Tell us what is happening and where. Emergencies get triaged on the phone — sometimes the first thing we do is tell you which breaker to shut off before we arrive.
We open the panel, test the affected circuits and tell you what is actually wrong, including the parts you would rather not hear.
One number for the work described, before it starts. Options where there are options — the repair now versus the replacement that stops it recurring.
We do the job, label the circuits, clean the space and walk you through what changed and what to watch for.
Reviews
Two EVs, one 100 amp panel, and three other companies who said it could not be done. Ascot did the load calc, upgraded the service and put in load-sharing chargers. Both cars charge overnight now.
Our 1948 place still had knob and tube in the attic. They rewired it in stages so we never lost power to the bedrooms, and patched better than the last contractor we hired.
Breaker tripped every few days for a year. Two other electricians replaced the breaker. Ascot found a back-stabbed outlet behind a bookcase in about forty minutes. Fixed and done.
Questions
Less than most people expect. We work circuit by circuit and stage the job so you keep power in the rooms you are actually using. Access is usually through attic, crawlspace and small targeted openings rather than opening every wall.
Two-prong outlets throughout, a fuse box, cloth-covered cable in the basement, warm switch plates, or lights that dim whenever an appliance starts. Knob and tube and aluminium branch circuits are the two that most often force the decision.
Not always. Where a full replacement is not practical, approved connectors at every device and junction are an accepted remediation. We will tell you which route makes sense for your house and what each one costs.
Yes. Most Corte Madera rewires are done with the family still in place. We agree in advance which rooms lose power on which days.
Routine repairs in Corte Madera are usually same-day or next-morning. Emergency calls are dispatched immediately and we give you an honest arrival window on the phone rather than a vague four-hour block.
Small jobs such as outlet or switch installation are typically a flat price. Larger work like a panel upgrade or a rewire is quoted after we look at the existing service. Either way you get the number in writing before the work starts, and it does not move unless the scope does.
