FAQs
Why might my Shelbyville home need a whole-house rewire?
Homes built before the 1980s often have outdated aluminum or cloth-covered wiring that can overheat, short-circuit, or lack the capacity for modern appliances. A whole-home rewire replaces unsafe or undersized conductors, adds dedicated circuits, and brings the entire electrical system up to current National Electrical Code (NEC) and Shelby County inspection standards, greatly reducing fire risk and improving reliability.
How long does a typical whole-house rewire take?
A rewire for an average 1,800–2,500 sq ft Shelbyville home usually takes 5–10 working days. Factors like square footage, the number of stories, existing wall finishes, and any required service-panel upgrade can extend or shorten the timeline. We provide a detailed schedule up front and coordinate with local inspectors so there are no surprises.
Do I have to move out while the work is being done?
In most cases, no. We rewire in stages, shutting off power only to the area we’re actively working in and restoring it each evening. Kitchens and bathrooms receive priority so you maintain daily routines. For households with remote workers or critical medical equipment, we create a customized phasing plan or can install temporary power solutions if needed.
How much wall or ceiling damage should I expect?
Our seamless service approach uses minimally invasive techniques—fishing new wire through existing cavities, accessing attic and crawl spaces, and cutting the smallest possible openings. Any holes we make for routing or box installation are patched, sanded, and primed so the surface is paint-ready when we leave. Most homeowners find final touch-up painting is all that’s required.
What does a whole-home rewire cost in Shelbyville?
Pricing varies with home size, accessibility, amperage needs, and fixture choices, but most projects fall between $8 and $14 per square foot. We provide a fixed-price proposal after a free on-site assessment that details labor, materials, permit fees, and inspection costs, so you know the exact investment before work begins.
Is the work guaranteed and inspected?
Absolutely. All rewires are performed by our licensed, bonded, and insured electricians and are permitted through the City of Shelbyville. The project is inspected at rough-in and again at final by a certified county inspector. We include a transferable 5-year workmanship warranty and register all new devices and panels for manufacturer warranties, giving you peace of mind for the long term.
