Older Houston homes hide older wiring — aluminum branch circuits, cloth-insulated copper, ungrounded two-prong outlets. We rewire homes with minimal drywall damage and bring additions, garages, and workshops up to today's code.
Tens of thousands of Houston homes built between the mid-60s and mid-70s have aluminum branch wiring. Aluminum expands and contracts more than copper, which loosens connections over time — and loose connections are how outlet fires start. Full replacement is one option, but for many homes the recognized remediation is AlumiConn or COPALUM connectors at every device and junction, which insurance companies accept at a fraction of a rewire's cost. We'll assess your home and give you both numbers.
Workshop in the garage? Mini-split in the sunroom? Hot tub? Each needs a properly sized dedicated circuit, and often a subpanel makes the whole project cleaner. We handle the load math, the trenching for detached structures, and the inspection.
Whole-home rewires typically run $8,000–$20,000+ depending on square footage, attic access, and whether the panel needs replacing at the same time. Aluminum remediation with approved connectors often costs a fraction of that. We quote both when it applies.
It's a documented fire risk at connections when unmaintained — the wiring itself isn't the problem, the connections are. Approved remediation (AlumiConn/COPALUM) or replacement resolves it, and many insurers require one or the other.
No. Experienced electricians fish most runs through the attic and wall cavities. Expect some small, strategic access holes rather than open walls — we map out cuts beforehand and keep them patchable.
Yes — adding outlets, moving switches, and splitting overloaded circuits are everyday work for us. Small jobs welcome.
