What Is Whole Home Rewiring?

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.
