FAQs
Why would a Greeneville home need a whole-home rewire?
Several warning signs indicate it’s time to replace old wiring: frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, warm or discolored outlets, aluminum branch circuits from the 1960s–70s, cloth- or knob-and-tube wiring in homes built before 1950, or an electrical panel that still uses fuses. A whole-home rewire eliminates fire hazards, brings the system up to the current 2023 National Electrical Code, and provides the capacity needed for today’s high-demand appliances, smart-home devices, and future technologies such as EV chargers and solar inverters.
What “latest technology” materials and methods do you use during a rewire?
We install copper THHN/THWN-2 conductors inside new PVC-coated non-metallic (NM-B) or EMT conduit runs, arc-fault/ground-fault combination breakers, tamper-resistant (TR) outlets, and whole-home surge protection. For smart-home readiness we rough-in Cat-6 data cabling, 2-gang device boxes for smart switches, and 50-amp circuits for garage EV chargers. All lighting branches are LED-dimmer compatible, and every splice is made with torque-specific, maintenance-free push-in connectors so future upgrades are easier and safer.
How long does a complete rewire take, and will I have to move out?
A 1,800–2,400 sq ft Greeneville home usually takes 7–10 working days. We begin with a detailed load calculation and pull the city/county permit. Power is cut only in the section we’re working on, so most customers stay in the house. We protect furnishings with plastic, use vacuum-equipped oscillating tools for minimal drywall damage, and patch and texture all openings before final inspection. If you work from home or have medical equipment, we can provide temporary generator power or schedule critical shutdowns after hours.
Will a whole-home rewire really boost my property’s safety and value?
Absolutely. The Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that outdated wiring is involved in over 30,000 residential fires each year. A new system with AFCI/GFCI protection virtually eliminates arc and ground faults, and insurance carriers often offer lower premiums for homes meeting the latest code. Realtors report that buyers in Greeneville are willing to pay 5–10 % more for a house with a documented rewire less than five years old, knowing they won’t face surprise electrical repairs.
How much does a whole-home rewire cost in Greeneville and what affects the price?
Most projects fall between $8 and $14 per finished square foot. Variables include: size/age of the home, accessibility of crawlspaces and attics, whether drywall is plaster or sheetrock, number of dedicated circuits (HVAC, tankless water heater, EV charger, hot tub), and any requested smart-home or low-voltage cabling. We provide a fixed-price quote after a free on-site assessment and offer 0 % financing for 12 months to make the investment easier.
Are you licensed, insured, and do you handle permits and inspections?
Yes. We are Tennessee State Licensed Electrical Contractors (License #000000), carry $2 million in general liability and workers’ compensation coverage, and are bonded for projects up to $500 k. Our team files all paperwork with the Greeneville Building Department, schedules rough-in and final inspections, and supplies you with a signed Certificate of Completion for your records and homeowner’s insurance.
