Questions

FAQs

How disruptive is whole house rewiring in California?

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.

How do I know if my California home needs rewiring?

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.

Is aluminium wiring always replaced?

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.

Can you rewire while we still live in the house?

Yes. Most California rewires are done with the family still in place. We agree in advance which rooms lose power on which days.
