FAQs
Why might my Mulberry home need a complete electrical rewire?
Homes that are more than 30–40 years old often contain outdated aluminum or cloth-covered wiring, limited circuit capacity, or damaged insulation that can overheat and cause fires. Warning signs include frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, discolored or warm outlets, a burning smell, or two-prong (ungrounded) receptacles. A whole-home rewire replaces every branch circuit with modern copper conductors, grounded receptacles, and arc-fault/ground-fault protection to meet the current National Electrical Code (NEC) and Florida Building Code requirements.
How long does a full rewire take, and do I have to move out while the work is done?
For an average 1,800–2,200 sq ft house in Mulberry, a rewire typically takes 3–10 working days. Larger homes, dense construction (lathe-and-plaster, brick), or extensive ceiling finishes can add time. We plan the project in phases so portions of the home remain energized each evening, allowing most clients to stay in place. If major drywall removal is required, you may choose to relocate temporarily for comfort, but it is rarely mandatory unless the house is completely gutted for renovation.
What does a whole-home rewire cost and what factors influence the price?
Pricing in Mulberry generally ranges from $7 to $12 per square foot, so a mid-sized home might run $14,000–$24,000. Final cost depends on square footage, number of circuits, accessibility (crawl space vs. slab), panel or service-entrance upgrades, specialty devices (USB outlets, smart switches), and Polk County permit fees. We provide a free on-site assessment and a fixed, itemized quote before work begins so there are no surprises.
Are permits and inspections required, and will your company handle them?
Yes. Polk County and the City of Mulberry require an electrical permit, rough-in inspection, and final inspection for any whole-house rewire. Our state-licensed contractors pull all permits, create load calculations, provide one-line diagrams when needed, and coordinate directly with the building department and utility. After the final inspection you receive a signed Certificate of Completion for your records and for homeowner’s insurance verification.
What qualifications and warranties do your electricians offer?
All work is performed by Florida state-certified, fully insured journeyman or master electricians who maintain continuing education on the latest NEC updates. We use only UL-listed copper wiring, tamper-resistant receptacles, and Siemens/Square D panels rated for 200 A or higher. Our labor and materials carry a transferable 5-year warranty, and any manufacturer defects are handled at no cost to you. You also get lifetime support for permit paperwork and documentation.
Can you add upgrades like a new service panel, EV charger, or whole-house surge protection during the rewire?
Absolutely. A rewire is the ideal time to increase service capacity (e.g., from 100 A to 200 A), install a generator interlock, dedicate circuits for an electric vehicle charger, or pre-wire for smart home controls, security cameras, and Cat-6 data. We also recommend installing a type-2 whole-house surge suppressor at the main panel to protect sensitive electronics from Florida’s frequent lightning strikes. All upgrades are bundled into one permit to save you time and money.
