Old or damaged wiring is more than an inconvenience. It can trip breakers, flicker your lights, and in the worst cases, cause an electrical fire. If your Roanoke home is showing signs of aging wiring, Wisler’s home rewiring service can fix the problem at the source.
Our licensed electricians handle everything from planning to final inspection, so you get safe, code-compliant wiring that’s built to last.
Whole home rewiring means replacing the old electrical wiring throughout your house with new, safe wiring that meets today’s electrical codes. It may include new wires, outlets, switches, and circuits, and often an updated electrical panel.
It’s one of the best investments you can make in an older home. Modern wiring supports modern life: more outlets, higher power demands, and far better safety.
Not sure if your wiring is due for an upgrade? Watch for these warning signs:
Frequent tripped breakers or blown fuses
Flickering or dimming lights
Warm or discolored outlets and switch plates
A burning smell coming from outlets or your panel
Buzzing or crackling sounds from walls or fixtures
Two-prong outlets and few grounded outlets
Aluminum, knob-and-tube, or cloth-insulated wiring
A home built before the 1970s with original wiring
Heavy reliance on extension cords and power strips
If you notice a burning smell or sparking, turn off power to the affected area and call Wisler to book an electric service right away. If there’s smoke or fire, call 911.
Not sure what’s going on? Wisler also offers electrical service repair. We’ll inspect your system and tell you honestly whether a repair will do the job or whether rewiring is the smarter long-term fix.
