"Overpriced, incomplete, abundant up-selling! They charged me $890, simply to install a couple of outlet boxes in my kitchen ceiling, and did not even verify they had power. After I submitted my request for service, Isaac showed up the next day to evaluate the work to be done. He was a salesman, not a technician. He pointed out everything in my 1920's house that was not "up to code," trying to drum up a bill 4x larger than what I needed, and sell me on a whole-house surge suppression system, and sell me on a monthly subscription maintenance plan. All not worth it. I was quoted a price of $890 to repair my kitchen light fixtures. I wanted it done, so I agreed. The next day, the electrician showed up. He removed the old canister lights from my kitchen ceiling, and installed a couple of generic plastic electrical outlet boxes in their place, so I could later install the light fixtures of my choosing. He left without even verifying there was power to the fixtures. What a rip off!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Section, AL

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 Older homes may have outdated wiring like knob-and-tube, which poses fire risks due to flammable insulation.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Yes, rewiring your house is worth it, especially if your wiring is outdated.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.
