FAQs
Why might my Corryton home need a complete electrical rewire?
Homes more than 30–40 years old often contain outdated aluminum, knob-and-tube, or cloth-insulated wiring that can overheat, arc, or fail modern load demands. A whole-home rewire replaces every circuit with copper conductors, modern breakers, and AFCI/GFCI protection, bringing the property up to current National Electrical Code (NEC) standards and removing fire and shock hazards.
What safety standards do you follow during a whole-home rewire?
Our licensed electricians adhere to the latest NEC, Tennessee state amendments, and Knox County inspection requirements. We install copper THHN/THWN-2 conductors, tamper-resistant receptacles, dual-function AFCI/GFCI breakers, surge protection, and properly sized grounding electrode systems. Every phase is inspected by a county official before walls are closed, ensuring your rewire meets or exceeds the highest safety benchmarks.
How disruptive is the rewiring process to daily life?
We create a detailed project plan that divides the house into zones. Furniture is covered, and floor protection is laid down. Power is only shut off to the circuit we’re actively working on so you still have electricity in other areas. Most single-family homes in Corryton are fully rewired in 5–10 business days, after which we patch, texture, and paint any wall openings so your home looks as good as—or better than—before.
Will a rewire increase my home’s resale value?
Yes. Updated electrical infrastructure is a major selling point for buyers and can lead to a higher appraisal. Insurance companies often give lower premiums to homes with modern wiring, and potential buyers gain peace of mind knowing the system can safely handle today’s appliances, EV chargers, and smart-home devices.
How much does a whole-home rewire typically cost in Corryton?
Pricing depends on square footage, number of circuits, accessibility of crawl spaces or attics, and panel upgrades. In Corryton, most projects fall between $7 and $12 per square foot. We provide a fixed, written quote after a free on-site assessment, and financing options are available to spread the investment over manageable monthly payments.
Is my home left protected after the project is complete?
Absolutely. We back every whole-home rewire with a transferable 10-year workmanship warranty and register manufacturer warranties on panels, breakers, and surge protection devices. We also perform a final thermal imaging scan six months after completion—at no charge—to confirm that every connection remains cool and secure, guaranteeing long-term safety.
