Whole-Home Rewiring in Fairview
The two-story farmhouses with the deep porches are the houses we rewire most in Fairview. Many still have original knob-and-tube running through the walls and the two-prong, ungrounded outlets that go with it, wiring that was sound in its day but has no ground, no slack left in the insulation, and no business feeding a modern kitchen. Pull a cover plate and you often find it spliced into newer cable with no junction box.
Rewiring replaces the whole system: grounded copper home runs, the right gauge for each circuit, dedicated lines for the heavy appliances, and AFCI and GFCI protection where code now requires it. We fish walls carefully and patch as we go, because you still have to live there.
We pull the permit and the work gets inspected, room by room if that’s how the budget runs. A rewire almost always pairs with a panel upgrade, since old wire and an old panel tend to age together, and new outlets and switches go in at the same time. Full scope is on our whole-home rewiring page, with everything local at Fairview.
