## Whole House Rewiring in Buellton, CA

Housing stock in and around Buellton 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 Buellton

### 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.

### 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.

### Insurance flagged knob and tube

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

### 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 Santa Barbara County

★★★★★

Added outlets to three bedrooms and a weatherproof one out back. Cuts were small, patches were tidy, and everything got labeled at the panel.

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

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 Buellton — questions

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.

Can I stay in the house during a rewire?

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

How much does whole house rewiring cost in Buellton?

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.

Is knob and tube wiring illegal in Buellton?

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.
