Rewiring Old Houses
Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s used aluminum wiring, as it was the newest technology available. Since then, we’ve discovered that aluminum wiring poses serious threats and hazards to your home. It is essential to your safety that we update the aluminum wiring with the safer option of copper wiring.
Similarly, homes built in the 1800s used knob and tube wiring. While some homes and homeowners desire to keep everything about these historical homes the same, it poses a great risk to the home and the family inside. Knob and tube wiring are not insulated or grounded, which causes many safety hazards.
If your home is older and hasn’t gotten an electrical makeover, or if you’re not sure how old the electrical wiring is, give us a call and we can give you professional advice about whether a house rewiring would be right for you and your needs.
