FAQs
Why would I need a whole-home rewire instead of a few simple repairs?
Many Bean Station houses were built before modern electrical codes and still rely on outdated wiring such as cloth-insulated, aluminum, or knob-and-tube. These systems are not designed to handle today’s high demand from HVAC, smart devices, and high-efficiency appliances. A complete rewire eliminates chronic breaker trips, flickering lights, and fire risks while giving you a code-compliant, future-ready electrical system backed by our proven techniques and workmanship warranty.
How long does a full rewire usually take for a typical Bean Station home?
For an average 1,800–2,200 sq ft residence, our crew can normally finish a whole-home rewire in 5–7 working days, followed by final inspection and drywall touch-ups. Larger properties, extensive plaster walls, or custom features can extend the timeline to 10–14 days. We create a detailed project schedule during the on-site assessment so you know exactly what to expect each day.
Will I have to move out while the rewire is underway?
In most cases you can stay in the home. We rewire room-by-room, setting up temporary power circuits so essential areas—kitchen, bathrooms, HVAC—remain operational at day’s end. We isolate work zones with plastic sheeting and use dust-controlled cutting tools to minimize mess. Homeowners with remote-work or health sensitivities sometimes choose short-term lodging for maximum comfort, but it is rarely mandatory.
What is the typical cost of a whole-house rewire in Bean Station and what affects the price?
Prices generally range from $8 to $14 per square foot. Factors that influence cost include size and age of the home, accessibility of crawl spaces and attics, panel upgrades, number of dedicated circuits (EV charger, workshop, hot tub), and requested extras such as whole-house surge protection or generator interlocks. After our free evaluation, you receive a fixed-price proposal so there are no budget surprises.
Do I need permits and inspections, and who handles them?
Yes. Tennessee state law and Grainger County require electrical permits and rough-in/final inspections for any whole-home rewire. We take care of the entire permitting process, schedule inspections with the local AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction), and are present during each inspection to address any questions. All work meets or exceeds the latest NEC (National Electrical Code) standards.
What upgrades and safety features come with your proven rewire techniques?
Every rewire includes copper NM-B cabling, properly sized grounded circuits, GFCI protection in kitchens, baths, garages, and outdoor receptacles, AFCI protection in habitable rooms, tamper-resistant outlets, and a modern 200-amp main panel with labeled breakers. Optional add-ons—whole-home surge protection, dedicated EV charger circuits, smart switches, and generator transfer switches—are easily incorporated while walls are open, giving you a safer, smarter home for decades to come.
