FAQs
Why would I need a whole-home rewire instead of a partial upgrade?
A full rewire is recommended when the existing wiring is 30 years or older, uses obsolete materials such as knob-and-tube or aluminum branch circuits, or shows signs of overload (frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, warm outlets). Replacing only visible sections leaves hidden faults in walls and attics that can overheat or arc. A comprehensive rewire brings every circuit up to current NEC standards, adds modern grounding, and provides the capacity required for today’s high-demand appliances, EV chargers, and smart-home devices.
What advanced techniques does Petros Electrical use during a rewire?
We employ thermal imaging to map live circuits, ultrasonic stud-locating to minimize drywall cuts, and wireless load analyzers to size new breakers accurately. Our technicians pull new copper conductors through existing pathways using low-friction nylon snakes, then seal penetrations with intumescent fire-stopping foam. We install arc-fault/ground-fault combination breakers, whole-house surge protection, and future-proof 20 A circuits on all general-purpose receptacles. After installation, every circuit is tested with a power-quality analyzer and documented in a digital panel schedule that clients can access via our customer portal.
How long does a typical whole-home rewire take and will I need to move out?
Most single-family homes (1,800–2,500 sq ft) can be rewired in 5–7 working days. Larger or custom builds may take up to two weeks. We section the job so only part of the home is without power at any time, letting you stay in the residence if a safe temporary service panel can be established. For extensive plaster walls or heritage properties, we may recommend short-term relocation to reduce disruption. In every case, we provide a written timeline, daily cleanup, and final walk-through before re-energizing the new system.
How much does a full rewire cost and what factors influence the price?
In Petros and surrounding areas, a standard three-bedroom house averages $10,000–$18,000 for a complete rewire, including labor, materials, permits, and inspections. Pricing varies with square footage, accessibility (crawl spaces versus slab foundation), wall construction (plaster, brick, or drywall), and upgrades such as recessed LED lighting or dedicated circuits for HVAC, EV charging, or backup generators. We provide fixed-price proposals after a complimentary on-site assessment and guarantee no change orders unless the project scope changes at your request.
Will rewiring increase my home’s energy efficiency and safety?
Yes. New copper wiring and correctly sized breakers reduce resistive losses, while dedicated circuits prevent voltage drops that waste energy. Installing AFCI/GFCI protection dramatically lowers the risk of electrical fires and shock. We also balance loads across phases to optimize utility meter readings. Optional smart-panel monitoring allows real-time tracking of usage, helping homeowners identify high-draw appliances and adopt energy-saving habits.
Are permits, inspections, and a warranty included in the service?
Absolutely. Petros Electrical secures all required municipal permits, coordinates rough-in and final inspections with the local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ), and provides you with signed approval stickers for your records. Our workmanship carries a 10-year transferable warranty, and all devices we install follow manufacturer warranties—typically 1–5 years for breakers and surge protectors. Should any covered issue arise, we prioritize warranty calls within 48 hours at no additional cost.
