Frequently Asked Questions

If your home is over 30 years old, has frequent power outages, flickering lights, or tripped breakers, it may be time for a wiring upgrade. Older wiring, such as knob-and-tube or aluminum, can be a fire hazard and may not support modern electrical needs.

Installing an outlet may seem simple, but it involves handling live electrical wiring, which can be dangerous if done incorrectly. If the outlet needs to be grounded or upgraded to GFCI (for wet areas like kitchens and bathrooms), a licensed electrician should handle it to meet code requirements.

Your electrical panel should be inspected every 3-5 years or sooner if you experience frequent tripped breakers, buzzing sounds, or burning smells. An outdated panel may not handle modern appliances and can pose a safety risk.

This could be a sign of overloaded circuits, loose wiring, or voltage fluctuations. It’s important to have an electrician check your system to prevent damage to appliances and potential fire hazards.

Rewiring a home can cost between $4,000 and $10,000, depending on the size of the house and complexity of the project. While it’s an investment, it improves safety, energy efficiency, and home value.
