How much does it cost to rewire a whole house professionally?

A whole-house rewire is priced after an in-home evaluation, because final cost varies by home size, existing wiring, access, and required code upgrades. The biggest driver is replacing outdated two-prong or cloth wiring and pairing it with a properly sized panel and modern grounding. In our experience, most labor goes into tracing hidden junctions and creating safe pathways for new cable with minimal wall impact. We serve homeowners in and around Lancaster with upfront pricing once we assess your home on site.

Cost is confirmed after inspection; key factors your electrician will document include:

• Number of new outlets, switches, and dedicated circuits to add
• Whether the electrical panel and service need upsizing
• Wall and ceiling repair/repaint needs after wire pulls
• Ability to coordinate with open-walls remodeling to reduce labor
