FAQs
Why might my Clairfield home need a complete electrical rewire?
Many houses in Clairfield still contain outdated knob-and-tube, cloth-covered, or aluminum branch wiring that was never designed to handle today’s appliance loads. Aging insulation becomes brittle, breakers trip more often, and some insurers refuse coverage unless the wiring is updated. A whole-home rewire removes these fire and shock hazards, adds grounded circuits, increases capacity for HVAC, EV chargers, and smart devices, and instantly raises resale value and peace of mind.
What is included in a personalized electrical assessment before the rewire?
Our licensed electrician meets you on-site for a room-by-room walkthrough. We test receptacles, inspect the service entrance, panel, and grounding, perform load calculations, and use infrared scanning to spot overheated connections. We discuss your future power needs (EV, generator, smart home), code requirements, and budget. Within 48 hours you receive a detailed report outlining current deficiencies, a circuit-by-circuit rewire plan, material choices, timeline, and a fixed-price proposal—so there are no surprises later.
How long will a whole-home rewire take and will I need to move out?
For an average 1,500–2,000 sq ft Clairfield residence, the job typically spans 3–5 working days. Larger or heavily finished homes can run 7–10 days. We rewire in zones, keeping critical circuits (HVAC, refrigerator, internet) powered whenever possible, so most clients stay in the home throughout. If you work from home, we schedule noisy wall-cutting during agreed-upon hours and provide temporary power where needed.
Do you handle permits and ensure code compliance?
Yes. We obtain all required electrical permits from the Clairfield Building Department, follow the latest National Electrical Code (NEC 2023), and coordinate rough-in and final inspections. After approval you receive a signed Certificate of Completion for your records and insurance. All new circuits are clearly labeled, AFCI/GFCI protected as mandated, and a new service panel or meter base is installed if capacity upgrades are necessary.
What does a whole-home rewire cost, and what affects the price?
Costs in Clairfield generally range from $8,000 to $25,000. Key variables are square footage, number of circuits, access to crawl spaces/attic, wall finish type (plaster vs. drywall), need for a service-panel upgrade, and optional items like recessed lighting or data cabling. Copper prices also fluctuate. After the assessment we give you a line-item fixed quote and can discuss phased work or 0% financing options to fit your budget.
How should I prepare for the rewire, and what happens afterward?
Before we arrive, please clear furniture 3 ft from walls, empty closets we’ll need to access, and secure valuables or fragile items. We lay down drop cloths, use dust containment, and clean up daily. Some small drywall patches are inevitable; our team repairs them to paint-ready condition. When work is finished, we walk you through the new panel, provide as-built circuit maps, a transferable workmanship warranty, and maintenance tips to keep your new electrical system in top shape.
