Re-wires

You should consider replacing your wiring if your home is older, the current wiring is outdated, you don’t have enough outlets to meet your electrical needs, or the original installation was done incorrectly or haphazardly. Additionally, wiring that presents a fire or safety risk is an immediate cause for replacement. If you are uncertain if you need rewiring, keep an eye out for the following signs that indicate service is needed.

If you are considering rewiring your property, you will need the help of an electrician. Never attempt such a project on your own, as the handling of wires can be dangerous and should always be left to a trained professional.With affordable rates and a dedication to top-quality service, you have come to the right place for your wiring or rewiring needs.

Pools & Hot-Tubs

If you are adding or upgrading a hot tub, pool, or spa, you will need some electrical work done. The wiring and connection hookups on these are very specific.

Panel Changes and Upgrades

Most modern electrical panels are safe and well-designed. However, sometimes old homes and buildings have old panels that can’t cope with today’s energy demands, or in the planning of an addition or renovation, the panels need to be upgraded to cope with the new requirements. Older fuse boxes also present a health and safety hazard and should be replaced with more modern circuit breakers. Fuse boxes were designed to work when a typical electrical load for the house was 30-60 amps and some of today’s appliances draw 30-60 amps alone.

Whichever the case electrical panels installed years ago can now be undersized for today’s electrical needs or even outdated to the point of becoming a safety hazard. By replacing or upgrading your home or business electrical panel you can have peace of mind that your electrical system is up to date to provide you with proper power and safety.
