## Whole House Rewiring in Big Bear Lake, CA

Rewiring is disruptive work done well or done badly, and the difference is planning. Rupert Electrical Solutions maps every circuit in your Big Bear Lake home first, then rewires in phases so you never lose the kitchen and the bedrooms in the same week.

Call (833) 652-8933 and describe what is happening. If it is a same-day job we will book it today, and if it needs a site visit to quote properly we will tell you that too.

## Situations we see in Big Bear Lake

### Insurance flagged knob and tube

Carriers in San Bernardino County increasingly require removal. We document what was replaced so you have something to send the underwriter.

### Aluminum branch wiring

Aluminum expands and creeps at terminations and runs hot. Depending on scope we either replace the runs or pigtail every connection with approved connectors.

### Fabric insulation crumbling

Once the cloth and rubber goes brittle, conductors sit bare inside boxes. There is no repair for that other than new wire.

### Two-prong outlets everywhere

No equipment ground means no fault path. Rewiring the branch circuits is the real fix, though GFCI protection is a legitimate interim step in some cases.

## Reviews from San Bernardino County

★★★★★

Kitchen breaker kept popping whenever we ran the microwave and kettle. They put in a dedicated circuit instead of just telling us to use one appliance at a time.

Smart switches wouldn't work because there was no neutral. They pulled one, got everything on Lutron, and set up the scenes before leaving.

Warehouse high bay retrofit to LED. Did it over a weekend so we never stopped shipping, and the place is twice as bright.

## Whole House Rewiring in Big Bear Lake — questions

How much does whole house rewiring cost in Big Bear Lake?

It scales with square footage, number of circuits, attic and crawlspace access, and whether the walls are plaster or drywall. A 1,200 square foot single story with attic access is a very different number than a two-story plaster home. Call (833) 652-8933 for a walkthrough and a firm scope.

Will you cut up my walls?

Some openings are unavoidable, but we fish through existing cavities wherever we can and keep openings small, straight and in patchable locations. We tell you where they will go before we cut.

Do I need a new panel if I rewire?

Usually. New circuits need somewhere to land, and a rewire is the natural moment to move to a 200 amp panel with AFCI protection.

Is knob and tube wiring illegal in Big Bear Lake?

Existing installations are generally allowed to remain, but you cannot extend them, most insurers dislike them, and the insulation is long past its service life. That combination is why owners replace it.

Can I stay in the house during a rewire?

In most Big Bear Lake projects, yes. We work in phases and leave you with power in the rooms we are not touching that day.
