FAQs
Why might a Grandview homeowner need a whole-home rewire?
Homes built before the mid-1970s often contain knob-and-tube, cloth-covered, or aluminum wiring that was never designed for today’s high-demand appliances and electronics. Warning signs include frequently tripped breakers, flickering or dimming lights, outlets that feel warm, or circuits with no grounding wire. A full rewire replaces these outdated conductors with modern copper wiring that meets the latest National Electrical Code (NEC) standards adopted by the City of Grandview, greatly reducing fire risk and improving the reliability and resale value of the property.
What is involved in a complete rewire and how long does it take?
After an on-site assessment, we create a detailed wiring plan and pull the required permits. Work begins with protecting floors and furnishings, then removing old cable runs, installing new NM-B copper cables, adding a properly sized service panel, and upgrading outlets, switches, and fixtures to today’s grounded, tamper-resistant models. Rough-in wiring is inspected before walls are closed, followed by a final inspection once all devices are energized and tested. An average 1,800-sq-ft Grandview home takes 5–10 working days, although larger or plaster-walled houses can take longer.
Will I need to vacate my home while the rewiring is done?
Most clients stay in their homes. We stage the project circuit by circuit, so you still have power to essential areas each evening. If your schedule or noise sensitivity makes staying inconvenient, you can temporarily relocate, but it’s rarely mandatory. We communicate daily so you’ll know exactly when brief power shut-offs will occur.
Are permits and inspections really necessary in Grandview?
Yes. The Grandview Building & Zoning Department requires an electrical permit and both rough-in and final inspections for whole-house rewires. Skipping this step can void homeowners insurance and stall future property sales. Our team handles all permit applications, schedules inspections, and remains on-site to address the city inspector’s questions—ensuring full compliance and documentation for your records.
How much does a whole-home rewire typically cost in the Grandview area?
Costs vary with square footage, number of circuits, attic or crawl-space accessibility, and whether a service-panel upgrade is needed. As a ballpark, a 1,500–2,000-sq-ft home generally runs $8,000–$20,000. We provide a fixed, itemized proposal after the inspection, so you know exactly what you’re paying for—labor, materials, permit fees, and any optional add-ons like recessed lighting or EV charger circuits.
What kind of warranty and support do you provide after the job is finished?
We stand behind our craftsmanship with a 5-year labor warranty, and all materials carry their respective manufacturer warranties (typically 10–25 years on copper wiring and lifetime on many devices). You’ll receive a labeled panel directory, as-built wiring diagram, and one complimentary safety check within the first year. Our technicians are on call 24/7 for any warranty-related issues or future upgrades.
