FAQs
Why should I consider a whole-home rewire instead of partial electrical repairs?
In older Graysville homes, wiring may be cloth-insulated, aluminum, or otherwise outdated, which increases the risk of shorts, fires, and breaker trips. A whole-home rewire replaces every circuit with modern copper conductors, grounded outlets, and AFCI/GFCI protection, ensuring your electrical system complies with the current 2023 National Electrical Code adopted by Jefferson County. This proactive approach eliminates hidden hazards, supports today’s high-demand appliances, and can even lower homeowners-insurance premiums.
How long does a complete rewire typically take for an average-sized Graysville house?
For a 1,500–2,000 sq-ft single-story home, our licensed crew generally needs 5–7 working days. Two-story or larger properties may take 8–12 days. We perform an initial walk-through to map circuits, then schedule work in phases—demo, rough-in, inspection, and trim-out—to minimize disruption. If you’re living in the house during the project, we provide temporary power so essentials like the refrigerator, HVAC, and Wi-Fi remain online.
Will I need a permit, and who handles inspections?
Yes. Jefferson County Building Safety requires an electrical permit for any rewire. Our master electrician secures the permit, prepares the load calculations, and schedules both rough-in and final inspections with the county inspector. We stay on-site during each inspection to address questions immediately and ensure you receive a passed sticker before closing up walls.
How much does a whole-home rewire cost in Graysville?
Pricing depends on square footage, accessibility (attic/crawlspace), and service upgrades. As a ballpark, most projects fall between $7 and $11 per square foot. For example, rewiring a 1,800-sq-ft ranch home with a new 200-amp panel and 40 circuits generally ranges from $13,000 to $19,000. We provide a free, itemized quote after a home visit, and offer zero-interest financing for up to 18 months on approved credit.
Do walls have to be completely torn out?
Not usually. We use "fishing" techniques, flexible drill bits, and endoscopic cameras to route new cables through existing cavities. Only minimal drywall cuts—typically 4"×4" access holes—are required near outlets, switches, and ceiling fixtures. After the final inspection, we patch, texture-match, and paint those areas so the finished walls blend seamlessly with the rest of your home.
What assurances do you provide on workmanship and safety?
All work is performed by Alabama-licensed journeyman and master electricians, never subcontracted labor. Materials carry manufacturer warranties of 10–25 years, and our labor is guaranteed for life: if any connection we install fails, we repair it at no cost. We maintain $2 million in liability insurance and $1 million in workers’ compensation, and every project includes complimentary thermal imaging on completion to verify secure, cool-running connections.
