House wiring and rewiring
Modernize Your Home’s Wiring
Many homes in the Raleigh and Durham area were built at a time when aluminum wiring or knob-and-tube wiring were used in new constructions. These dated electrical systems deteriorate over time and are no longer considered safe. In some cases, wiring that’s damaged or was installed incorrectly causes the electrical system to deteriorate and eventually fail.
Partial or whole home wiring involves removing old, hazardous wiring and installing new wiring that meets today’s housing codes. Modern wiring systems can also support today’s electrical equipment and technology, such as three-prong outlets, large HD televisions, and major appliances.
Home Electrical repairs in the Raleigh area
Home buyers often call us after receiving the home inspection report and finding out that the home only has two-prong outlets, a sure sign of old aluminum wiring. Perhaps certain outlets and circuits aren’t working, which could be traced back to a wiring problem. Whole house rewiring is typically the recommended option for bringing the electrical system up to code, installing three-prong outlets, and moving forward with confidence.
Tiny Homes, ADUs, and Sheds
A recently introduced Raleigh ordinance allows residents to build tiny homes and accessory dwelling units (ADUs) on their property. These structures provide much-needed housing and can be used to generate rental income. Meanwhile, many homeowners are converting sheds to remote workspaces. We can safely wire these structures to meet code requirements and provide reliable power.
