## Whole House Rewiring in San Clemente, CA

Insurers across Orange County have grown strict about knob and tube and aluminum branch wiring, and some will not write a policy at all. Rewiring a San Clemente home resolves that, and it is the only fix that actually addresses insulation that has gone brittle.

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 San Clemente

### 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.

### Insurance flagged knob and tube

Carriers in Orange 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.

## Reviews from Orange County

★★★★★

Hot tub circuit and disconnect. Permit, inspection, everything. Showed up when they said and cleaned up after.

Owen H.Hot tub wiring · San Clemente
★★★★★

Breaker tripped Sunday night and I got a call back in about ten minutes. Tech found a bad connection in a junction box behind the closet, fixed it that night, and the price was what he said on the phone.

★★★★★

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.

## Whole House Rewiring in San Clemente — questions

Is knob and tube wiring illegal in San Clemente?

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.

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.

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.

How much does whole house rewiring cost in San Clemente?

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.

Can I stay in the house during a rewire?

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