## Whole House Rewiring in Morro Bay, CA

Housing stock in and around Morro Bay spans a century, which means plenty of homes still have circuits nobody would install today: knob and tube in the attic, cloth insulation crumbling at the box, two-prong outlets with no ground anywhere in sight.

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 Morro Bay

### 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.

### Insurance flagged knob and tube

Carriers in San Luis Obispo 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.

### 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 Luis Obispo County

★★★★★

We needed a 200 amp panel before our EV charger install. They did the load calculation, pulled the permit, and had the whole thing done and inspected in a week.

GFCI in the bathroom kept tripping. They found real leakage in an old fixture rather than just replacing the GFCI and calling it done.

Our restaurant lost the walk-in circuit on a Friday. They came out after close, traced it to a failed feeder lug, and we opened Saturday on time.

## Whole House Rewiring in Morro Bay — questions

Is knob and tube wiring illegal in Morro Bay?

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.

How much does whole house rewiring cost in Morro Bay?

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.

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.

Can I stay in the house during a rewire?

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

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.
