WIRING WARNING SIGNS

When old wiring becomes a planning risk

If you are collecting quotes, focus on what affects permits and insurance: capacity and safety. We document everything so you can decide with clarity. For coastal homes, ask about hurricane-rated upgrades and corrosion-resistant components.

Warm Outlets

Heat at devices can signal resistance that may become a fire risk under normal use.

Safety Risk

Frequent Tripping

Repeated trips often mean circuits are overloaded, which can undermine future additions like remodel loads.

Capacity Warning

Two-Prong Outlets

Ungrounded outlets limit protection and can complicate approvals when you add modern appliances.

Code Concern

DIY Splices

Hidden junctions and mixed materials can fail inspection and cause costly wall rework later.

Inspection Risk

No Surge Defense

Without surge protection, sensitive electronics can be exposed during storms and utility events, risking premature failure.

Asset Protection

Aging Circuits

Older insulation and connections can degrade quietly, so planning an upgrade avoids surprise outages.

Questions, Answered Clearly

Upgrading wiring without scope surprises

The safest projects start with clarity: we identify must-fix issues, map optional improvements, and document decisions for permit success. Ask anything, we will explain.

Tap a question to see details.

Common red flags include warm devices, recurring breaker trips, flickering lights, ungrounded outlets, or previous DIY splices. An inspection is the right first step because it separates cosmetic annoyances from conditions that can affect safety, insurance concerns, or permit approval.
Many wiring changes require permitting and an inspection signoff, especially when circuits are added, modified, or tied into service equipment. We handle permit filing and inspector paperwork from start to final inspection, and we build the scope around what is required to pass.
The approach depends on access, existing pathways, and what the upgrade must accomplish. We look for routes through attics, crawl spaces, and existing chases first, then we propose the least-disruptive plan that still meets code and inspection expectations.
Wiring upgrades are priced based on what must be replaced, what must be brought up to code, the number of circuits involved, and how accessible the pathways are. After inspection, we provide options so you can match the plan to your budget and timeline without guessing.
We plan upgrades with future loads in mind so you are not paying twice. That can include right-sizing circuits, improving labeling, and planning space for additions like EV charging, smart devices, and surge protection, while still staying aligned with code and permit requirements.

  • • 1-year on labor and materials we provide
  • • 1-year on installed fixtures and devices when included
  • • If something is not right, we will make it right under our satisfaction promise
