My name is Scott Nelson. My company is called "SCOTT NELSON ELECTRIC"because I want my own name to be on every job we do. I have been in the electrical trade for over 25 years. I went to trade school school through "Associated Builders and Contractors Electrical Apprenticeship Training Program"(A.B.C.)shortly after completing high school.I am noticed by the "National Bureau of Apprenticeship Training"(N.B.A.T.)as a Journeyman Electrician. I worked for 14yrs. with contractors from the north shore,n.w. suburbs,and northern illinois. "QUALITY ELECTRICAL REPAIRS & INSTALLATIONS"is the best way to explain our service. We believe that being "neat & tidy"is one of the best ways of showing how much we respect our customers,and their homes.Our goal is 100% customer satisfaction.

"Nelson Electric is the best electrical contractor I’ve used in my thirty-eight years of owning and updating my homes. It is difficult to find an excellent contractor who is willing to take on a major remodeling project in old construction, and who handles it efficiently, cost-effectively, and with perfection. This time we were remodeling a 110 year-old bathroom. When we got down to the studs, joists, and rafters, the plans were worthless because of all the surprises. Unphased, the crew was able to trace every hidden wire to destination and source, re-route them as needed, install a new, larger, circuit breaker box, pull wire through neatly, clearly identify and label everything, and finish beautifully the lighting, overhead heating, floor heating, and exhaust fixtures, making for a beautiful bath. Thank you, Scott!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in North Chicago, IL

Electrical wiring can last between 50 and 70 years if properly installed and maintained. However, factors like moisture damage and overloading outlets can shorten this lifespan. To extend your wiring's life, unplug electronics when not in use, avoid overloading outlets, and schedule regular electrical inspections every five to ten years.

If your house was built in the 1960s and hasn't been rewired, it likely needs it. Older homes may have outdated wiring like knob-and-tube, which poses fire risks due to flammable insulation. Rewiring ensures safety and may also require updating your circuit panel, outlets, switches, and fixtures. Contact a local electrician to help with your rewiring needs.

Yes, rewiring your house is worth it, especially if your wiring is outdated. It improves safety by reducing fire risks and can increase your property's value. However, you may not need a full rewire. A home inspector can tell you if a partial rewire will bring your home up to code.

Yes, you can sometimes rewire a house without removing walls. Electricians might access wiring through attics, basements, or crawl spaces, or make small holes to run new wires. However, this isn't always possible, and in some cases, removing sections of walls is necessary to ensure the wiring is installed safely and meets code.

A house should typically be rewired every 25 years to maintain safety. Over time, wiring deteriorates, increasing fire risks. Regular electrical inspections every five to ten years help assess the need for rewiring. Staying proactive with maintenance ensures a safe, efficient electrical system and prevents potential hazards before they become serious issues.
