FAQs
When should I consider a whole-home rewire in Harrison?
If your property still has knob-and-tube or cloth-wrapped wiring, a service panel smaller than 100 A, frequent breaker trips, two-prong (non-grounded) receptacles, or visible deterioration of cables, it is time to think about a complete rewire. Homes more than 40 years old often cannot meet the electrical demand of today’s appliances and devices, and Harrison’s adoption of the latest NEC (National Electrical Code) means outdated wiring may no longer be code-compliant or insurable.
How long does a full rewire take, and do I have to move out during the project?
A typical 2,000 sq ft Harrison home requires 5–10 working days, divided into a “rough-in” phase (routing new cables and installing boxes) and a “trim-out” phase (connecting devices, fixtures, and the new panel). We can re-energize critical circuits (HVAC, refrigerator, Wi-Fi) at the end of each day so many clients stay in the home. However, if walls and ceilings need extensive opening, or if you work from home and require quiet, temporary relocation may be more comfortable.
What permits and inspections are required locally, and do you handle them?
The Harrison Building & Safety Department requires an Electrical Permit plus rough-in and final inspections for whole-house rewires. Service upgrades above 200 A also need utility coordination with Duke Energy. Our master electricians file all permit paperwork, create load-calculation drawings, schedule inspections, and remain on-site to meet the inspector, ensuring 100 % code compliance and a smooth sign-off.
How much does a whole-home rewire cost, and what factors affect pricing?
In Harrison, a full rewire for an average 3-bedroom home typically falls between $12,000 and $28,000. Key cost drivers include square footage, number of circuits, accessibility (unfinished basement vs. finished), wall/ceiling material, desired service-panel size, and upgrades such as AFCI/GFCI protection, dedicated EV-charger circuits, or smart-home controls. After a free on-site assessment, we provide a fixed-price proposal that itemizes every allowance so there are no surprises.
Will a rewire bring my home up to current code and prepare it for future technology?
Yes. We install all new branch circuits using copper conductors, grounded 3-wire cables, AFCI/GFCI protection where mandated, tamper-resistant receptacles, and properly sized breakers in a new load center. If your demand requires it, we upgrade the service entrance and meter base to 200 A or higher. We can also rough-in spare circuits or conduit runs for future EV chargers, solar inverters, whole-house battery storage, or generator interlocks so your electrical system remains flexible for decades.
How do you protect my home’s finishes and belongings during a rewire?
Our crews use stud-finder and borescope technology to route cables with the fewest possible access holes. We lay down floor protection, seal work areas with plastic sheeting, run HEPA vacuums while cutting, and perform daily debris removal. Small drywall openings are patched, taped, and primed; larger areas are finished by our in-house plaster/drywall team unless you have your own contractor. We carry full liability insurance and treat every job site as if it were our own home.
