Whole House Rewiring in Hurley, NM
House rewiring in Hurley is a big job, and it pays to plan it well. We map the existing circuits, agree the new layout with you, then rewire in stages with as little wall and ceiling damage as the house allows. We handle home rewiring across Grant County, from small adobes to large two-story houses.
Whole House Rewiring in Hurley: what's included
- Complete home rewiring with new copper cable
- Knob and tube and cloth wiring removed from service
- Aluminum wiring replacement or connection repair
- Grounded outlets with GFCI and AFCI protection
- A new panel and circuits sized for modern loads
- Staged work so you can stay in the house
Knob and tube wiring replacement in Hurley
Knob and tube wiring, found in homes built before the 1940s, has no ground and insulation that turns brittle with age. It was never meant to be buried in attic insulation or to feed modern loads. Our knob and tube wiring replacement in Hurley removes it from service and runs new grounded cable to every outlet, switch and light.
Aluminum wiring replacement in Hurley
Homes built from the mid-1960s to the mid-1970s may have aluminum branch wiring, which loosens at connections and overheats. We offer full aluminum wiring replacement, or repair at every connection with connectors made for joining aluminum to copper, depending on the house and the budget.
Whole house rewiring cost in Hurley
Whole house rewiring cost comes down to square footage, wall and ceiling construction, attic and crawlspace access and how many circuits you want. Adobe, block and flat-roof homes take more labor than frame houses with an open attic. After a walkthrough we price the full electrical rewiring job, including patching where we open walls.
Signs it's time to rewire a house in Hurley
- Two-prong outlets and no ground wire
- Cloth-covered or crumbling wire insulation
- Aluminum wiring marked AL on the cable jacket
- Scorched outlets or frequent blown fuses
- An insurer or home inspector flagged the wiring

Whole House Rewiring FAQ for Hurley
How much does it cost to rewire a house in Hurley?
It varies widely with the size and construction of the house. Access matters most: an open attic or crawlspace makes the job faster. We walk the house and give you a written price.
Do I have to move out during rewiring?
Usually not. We work in sections and restore power to the lived-in parts of the house at the end of each day.
Do you have to tear open the walls?
We fish cable through attics, crawlspaces and wall cavities wherever possible and cut small access holes only where needed. Solid adobe and block walls sometimes call for surface raceway or channeling.
Can I rewire part of the house now and the rest later?
Yes. Many owners start with the kitchen, bathrooms and panel, then do bedrooms and living areas in a second phase.
What customers say
Our adobe had wiring from who knows when. They rewired it in stages so we could stay in the house and were careful with the plaster. Everything is grounded now.
Our old panel was full and kept tripping when the air conditioner came on. They upgraded us to 200 amps in one day, labeled every breaker and left the wall cleaner than they found it.
We are on a well, so no power means no water. The standby generator they installed has kicked in on its own every time since. Worth every penny.
