HOUSE REWIRING
FOR THE PENSACOLA, FL AREA


Your home is your sanctuary, but inside its walls, a hidden network of wiring quietly carries the power that keeps your family safe and your home functioning. Over time, these wires can degrade, become outdated, or simply fail to keep up with modern electrical demands. When your electrical system struggles, it isn't just an inconvenience—it is a significant safety risk.

  • House Rewiring and Home Insurance Compliance

    Many homeowners are surprised to learn that outdated wiring—especially aluminum wiring, knob-and-tube, cloth wiring, or improperly modified electrical systems—can make a home difficult or even impossible to insure. Insurance carriers often classify these wiring types as high-risk fire hazards, resulting in denied coverage, policy cancellations, or significantly higher premiums. This becomes especially critical during the buying or selling process, when insurance approval is required for closing. A professional house rewire can resolve these issues, bringing the home up to current safety standards and restoring your ability to obtain affordable insurance. For qualifying real estate transactions, payment for rewiring services may be accepted at closing, making it easier for buyers and sellers to move forward without delays or unexpected financial strain.

SIGNS YOUR HOME MAY NEED REWIRING

Electrical wiring doesn’t last forever. Depending on when your home was built, the materials used may no longer be compliant with current safety codes, skyrocketing the cost of your home insurance. Often, your home will give you warning signs before a catastrophic failure occurs. Ignoring these signals can lead to electrical fires or damage to expensive appliances.


· Flickering or Dimming Lights: If your lights dim every time the air conditioner or refrigerator kicks on, your circuit is likely overloaded.


· Discolored Outlets or Switches: Brown or yellow scorch marks around outlets indicate heat buildup and sparking within the wall.


· Burning Smells: An acrid smell of burning plastic near an outlet or breaker panel is an immediate emergency.


· Frequent Breaker Trips: Breakers are designed to trip when the system is stressed. If this happens constantly, your wiring cannot handle your power usage.


· Two-Prong Outlets: If your home still relies on ungrounded, two-prong outlets, your system lacks a crucial safety path for stray electricity.


· Aluminum or Knob-and-Tube Wiring: Homes built between the 1960s and 70s may have aluminum wiring, while older historic homes might have knob-and-tube. Both are significant fire hazards that insurance companies often refuse to cover, or will insurance for a high premium.
