FAQs

What is a whole home rewire and why might I need it?

A whole home rewire involves replacing outdated or damaged electrical wiring throughout your residence. In older homes or places with aging electrical systems, a complete rewire is essential not only to meet current safety standards but also to support modern electrical loads. This upgrade can help prevent potential hazards such as electrical fires, ensure sufficient power for today's appliances, and improve overall system efficiency.

How do Charleston’s regulations and code requirements affect a whole home rewire?

Charleston adheres to state and local electrical codes which ensure safety and quality in all electrical work. A whole home rewire in Charleston must be performed by licensed professionals who are familiar with these codes. Inspections are typically required to ensure that your home's wiring meets updated safety standards, and compliance with local requirements helps protect your home insurance and increases the property’s resale value.

What signs indicate that my home may need a complete electrical rewire?

Some common signs include frequently tripped breakers, flickering or dimming lights, outdated fuse boxes, and the presence of old wiring such as knob-and-tube. Additionally, if your home is undergoing renovations or you plan to add more high-demand appliances, it might be time to consider a rewire to ensure your electrical system can safely handle increased loads.

How long does a complete home rewire typically take in Charleston?

The timeframe for a full rewire varies depending on the size of your home, the complexity of the system, and the condition of existing wiring. Generally, smaller homes may take a few days to a week, while larger or more complex properties might require several weeks. A licensed electrician will be able to provide a more accurate estimate during an initial assessment.

What are the benefits of a whole home electrical rewire?

Major benefits include increased safety by reducing the risk of electrical fires and shocks, improved electrical efficiency, and the ability to support modern appliances and increasing energy demands. A rewire also often leads to enhanced home value, fewer power interruptions, and better overall performance of your electrical infrastructure.

How do I choose the best electrician or company for my whole home rewire in Charleston?

When selecting an electrician or electrical contractor, look for licensed and insured professionals with a strong reputation and experience in whole home rewires. Check customer reviews, ask for references, and confirm that the contractor follows local codes and regulations. It’s also wise to obtain detailed estimates and discuss timelines before starting the project, ensuring the contractor is knowledgeable about Charleston-specific requirements.

Jim A.

I thought it was going to be a routine dishwasher upgrade, however when I pulled the old unit out I discovered that the wiring had not been properly installed years ago and I was lucky that I didn't have a house fire. I called H.E.P. around 9:30am, and Josh Butler was dispatched to my home that afternoon. Josh listened to me describe my issue, and he quickly trouble shot the problem, and explained what was going on and how it needed to be fixed. Josh was respectful, friendly, and he made sure to clean up after himself making sure that my problem was fixed. If you find yourself in the need of an electrician call HEP and ask them to send Josh your way!

Including working closely with local EPB folks (who also deserve huge kudos for their work)! Thanks, Ryan, for your fantastic work!!
