FAQs
Why might a Palmer homeowner need a whole-home rewire?
Most houses in Palmer built before the mid-1980s still rely on aluminum, knob-and-tube, or cloth-insulated copper wiring. These older systems can overheat, trip breakers, or fail modern AFCI/GFCI safety tests. A complete rewire eliminates fire hazards, brings the property up to the current National Electrical Code (NEC) and state regulations, and adds capacity for high-demand appliances, EV chargers, heat pumps, and smart-home devices.
What is included in your comprehensive rewiring service?
Our turnkey package covers: • In-home consultation, load calculations, and written estimate • Securing all City of Palmer & Matanuska-Susitna Borough permits • Careful removal or bypass of outdated wiring runs • Installation of new copper branch circuits, grounding, and arc-fault / ground-fault protection • Panel replacement or service-entrance upgrade if needed • New receptacles, switches, light boxes, and dedicated appliance circuits • Labeling, testing, and NEC compliance inspection • Drywall patching and site cleanup so your home is ready for paint—no extra contractors required.
How long does a complete rewire usually take?
A typical 1,500–2,000 sq ft single-family home in Palmer can be rewired in 3–7 working days. Larger homes, multi-story layouts, or extensive panel upgrades can add a few extra days. We create a day-by-day schedule upfront and coordinate inspections quickly to minimize downtime.
Will rewiring destroy my walls or force me to move out temporarily?
Our electricians use existing chases, attics, and crawlspaces wherever possible and make only small, strategic access holes that we patch before final walk-through. You can stay in the home during most projects; we re-energize critical circuits (heat, refrigeration, internet) at the end of each workday. If a full shut-down is required, we arrange a short, pre-planned outage window.
Are your technicians licensed, and do you handle permits and inspections?
Yes. Every lead electrician on your project is Alaska state-licensed, bonded, and insured. We pull all required electrical and building permits, coordinate utility disconnect/reconnect, and schedule rough-in and final inspections with the Palmer Building Department. All paperwork and compliance documentation are provided in your project binder for future resale or insurance needs.
What does a whole-home rewire cost, and do you offer financing?
Costs vary with square footage, panel size, and accessibility, but most Palmer projects fall between $8 and $15 per sq ft—roughly $12,000 to $30,000 for an average three-bedroom home. We give you a fixed-price contract after the onsite assessment. Zero-interest short-term payment plans and long-term financing through our lending partner are available, and many homeowners recoup a portion of the cost through lower insurance premiums and higher resale value.
