FAQs
Why might I need a whole-home rewire in Huntsville?
Homes built before the mid-1970s often contain outdated aluminum or knob-and-tube wiring that can overheat, arc, and fail to handle today’s electrical loads. If you notice flickering lights, warm outlets, tripped breakers, or have recently added high-demand appliances, a complete rewire brings your system up to current NEC code, eliminates safety hazards, and ensures adequate power for modern technology.
What are the advantages of choosing a contractor that uses state-of-the-art equipment for rewiring?
Advanced wire-mapping tools, thermal imaging cameras, and dust-free wall-chasing machines allow our technicians to locate circuits precisely, minimize drywall cuts, and verify connections instantly. This reduces project time, keeps your home cleaner, provides detailed digital documentation for future service, and delivers a safer, longer-lasting installation.
How long does a typical whole-house rewiring project take?
Duration depends on the home’s size, accessibility, and whether you remain in the house. In Huntsville, a 2,000-square-foot residence generally takes 5–10 working days. Our use of portable power distribution panels and pre-assembled circuit runs shortens downtime, while staggered crew scheduling helps us finish most projects with minimal disruption.
Will a complete rewire increase my property’s value and safety?
Yes. A new copper wiring system with AFCI/GFCI protection, tamper-resistant receptacles, and a modern load center is a major selling point during inspections. It lowers fire risk, reduces insurance premiums, and can add 3–5% to a home’s market value in the Huntsville area. Prospective buyers gain peace of mind knowing the electrical system meets current standards.
Do I need to move out while the rewiring is being done?
Not usually. We rewire in stages, isolating rooms so essential circuits (HVAC, refrigeration, internet) stay powered. Protective floor coverings, HEPA vacuum attachments, and same-day drywall patching allow most families to remain on-site safely. For extensive work in occupied homes, we coordinate daily cleanup and clear communication so you can plan around any short power interruptions.
What permits and inspections are required for a whole-home rewire in Huntsville?
The City of Huntsville requires an electrical permit for any full rewiring project. Our licensed master electrician submits load calculations, panel schedules, and arc-fault layouts to the Inspection Department. A rough-in inspection is performed after wiring is run but before walls are closed, and a final inspection is completed once devices, breakers, and grounding are finished. We handle all paperwork and accompany the inspector to ensure prompt approval.
