MAIN 200AWhole House Rewiring in Sausalito, CA
Insurers across Marin County have grown strict about knob and tube and aluminum branch wiring, and some will not write a policy at all. Rewiring a Sausalito 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 Sausalito
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 Marin 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 Marin 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.
Hugo S.Outlet installation · SausalitoStandby generator install. They sized it to what we actually use rather than the biggest unit, then walked me through the transfer switch and the exercise cycle.
Renee B.Generator · SausalitoOur 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.

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 Sausalito 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 Sausalito?
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.
Is knob and tube wiring illegal in Sausalito?
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.
