Partial rewires and single problem zones sit at the low end. A full rewire on a 1940s bungalow with plaster walls is the top of the range — wall construction moves this number more than square footage does.

IS THIS YOU?

When a rewire is the real answer

If two or more of these describe your house, it is worth a free estimate. If none of them do, you probably do not need us yet — and we would rather tell you that now.

01 Knob-and-tube still in service anywhere in the house
02 Two-prong outlets with no ground anywhere in the room
03 Insulation that crumbles when a wire is moved
04 A panel you keep adding to because there is nowhere else to go
05 Insurance carrier asking for documentation or refusing to renew
06 You are opening walls anyway for a remodel or addition
WHAT'S IN YOUR WALLS

Which era of wiring does your home have?

The age of the wiring decides whether it's a repair, a partial rewire or a full one.

PRE-1950

Knob and tube

Replace no ground, brittle insulation

Open wires on ceramic knobs. Most insurers won't cover it, and it was never made for modern loads.

Knob and tube
1940s–1960s

Cloth-sheathed cable

Inspect condition varies

Fabric-covered cable. Some is fine; some crumbles — especially in hot attics.

Cloth-sheathed cable
1950s–1970s

Ungrounded plastic cable

Upgrade two-prong outlets

No ground wire at all. Two-prong outlets throughout, and often a few bootleg grounds.

Ungrounded plastic cable

WHY TWO JOBS COST DIFFERENT AMOUNTS

5 things set your price.

01
Size of the home

Square footage and number of circuits.

02
Walls and ceilings

Plaster takes more care to open and patch than drywall.

03
Attic access

Good attic access means fewer wall openings.

04
The panel

Often replaced at the same time to save a second permit.

05
Patching

Included wherever we open a wall.

WHAT IT COSTS

Real numbers.
Not "call for pricing."

Nobody else in this market publishes ranges, which is exactly why we do. You will get an exact number at the estimate — this is so you know whether to bother calling.

Partial rewire — one problem zone
$8,000 – $12,000
Kitchen, bath or one wing. Dedicated circuits, GFCI/AFCI, patched and painted-ready.
Full rewire, drywall home
$12,000 – $17,000
Whole-house branch circuits plus a new panel. Opens and closes cleanly.
Full rewire, plaster or masonry
$17,000 – $22,000
Historic construction. More openings, more patching, more care.

We price match any written quote from another licensed, insured contractor. Military, first responders and teachers get a discount — just say so on the phone, no coupon to find.

NO SURPRISES

How the project goes

Most people's worry is not the price, it is not knowing what is about to happen in their house. So here it is.

Walkthrough
We open a few strategic spots to see what is actually in the walls before quoting.
Plan
Circuit schedule and access points marked. You know where we will open drywall before we do it.
Rough-in
New home runs pulled, boxes set, old wiring abandoned safely — not just left hot in a wall.
Inspection
Rough inspection before anything closes up.
Trim & close
Devices, plates, panel labeled. Then patching, texture, and a house that looks untouched.

COMMERCIAL & MULTI-UNIT

Commercial and multi-unit rewiring

Older retail, offices and small apartment buildings, sequenced around tenants and hours, with permits and inspections handled.

PERMITS & CODE

We handle it. You handle nothing.

Rewires are permitted with both rough and final inspections. In historic districts — Winter Park, Sanford and parts of downtown Orlando especially — there can be additional review. We plan for it rather than discovering it mid-job.

WHY THIS MATTERS TO YOU
Unpermitted work follows the house

It surfaces at resale, in an insurance claim, and in an inspection you did not schedule.

A cheap quote often means no permit

If a bid is dramatically under ours, ask whether the permit is included. Usually that is the difference.

We run ours in house

Filed, scheduled, and met. Customers thank our office by name in reviews for exactly this.

QUESTIONS WE ACTUALLY GET

Straight answers.

Can you rewire without gutting the house?

Mostly, yes. We cut strategically and patch what we open. Plaster and masonry take more openings than drywall, which is why they cost more.

Do we have to move out?

Rarely. We stage the work so you keep power in most of the house most of the time.

How long does a full rewire take?

Typically one to two weeks depending on size, wall construction and inspection scheduling.

Do you handle the drywall?

Patch and texture, yes. We close what we open — that promise came directly from customer feedback.

Will insurance require it?

Carriers increasingly ask about knob-and-tube and cloth wiring. Documentation of remediation often satisfies them without a full rewire.

Can we do it in phases?

Yes, and for a lot of families that is the right call. We sequence it so each phase is complete and inspected on its own.

How much drywall gets opened in a rewire?

Less than most people expect — mostly small cuts at the top of walls and at boxes. We patch and texture every opening.

Do I need a new panel when I rewire?

Often. If the panel is old, recalled or full, replacing it during the rewire saves a second permit and visit.
