When Does Your Home Need Rewiring?
Many North Jersey homes were built in the 1940s–1970s with wiring that’s no longer up to code. If your home still has knob-and-tube wiring, cloth-insulated wires, or aluminum branch wiring, it may be a fire hazard. Modern homes need more circuits and higher amperage to support today’s appliances, HVAC systems, and technology.
Warning Signs of Outdated Wiring
Frequent breaker trips, flickering or dimming lights, burning smell from outlets, discolored switch plates, two-prong outlets with no grounding, and aluminum wiring connections are all signs your home may need rewiring. Don’t ignore these — they’re potential fire hazards.
Our Rewiring Services
Knob-and-Tube Replacement — Complete removal and replacement of vintage knob-and-tube wiring with modern NM-B Romex. Required by most insurance companies and essential for safe insulation installation.
Aluminum Wiring Upgrades — Aluminum branch wiring (common in 1960s–1970s homes) is a known fire risk at connection points. We replace aluminum runs or install approved aluminum-to-copper connectors.
Whole-Home Rewiring — Complete rewiring from the panel to every outlet, switch, and fixture. We work room-by-room to minimize disruption, and our finish work minimizes drywall repair.
New Circuit Installation — Add dedicated circuits for kitchens, bathrooms, home offices, workshops, and high-draw appliances like dryers and ranges.
Grounding & GFCI/AFCI Protection — Bring your home up to current NEC code with proper grounding, GFCI outlets in wet locations, and AFCI protection in living spaces.
