Is a Whole House Rewiring a Good Investment?
October 26, 2022
Every home is wired differently, so it is important to have a reputable electrician inspect your wiring and make sure it is compliant with all local and state codes. When an inspection is done, our electricians will report back their findings and recommend any necessary work to make your home safer and up to date with local and state codes. Here are the homes we recommend to have their wiring redone.
Homes that are more than 50 years old definitely need to be inspected and rewired by a reputable electrician. Older wiring has a higher risk of starting an electrical fire and if your home was built between 1965 and 1973, there is a high possibility that your home's electrical utilizes aluminum wiring, which we now know also increases the chances of a house fire.
If you are thinking about selling or remodeling your home, having a rewiring job done can be extremely beneficial in the process of ensuring its eligibility for sale in the future market. Experts have found that new wiring from a certified electrician can also add thousands to the value of your home.
Other benefits of whole house rewiring include:
- The ability to expand your home
- The ability to convert your garage or loft into living spaces
- Higher energy efficiency
- Stable access to power (fewer outages)
