Knob and tube wiring replacement in Malaga

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 Malaga removes it from service and runs new grounded cable to every outlet, switch and light.

Aluminum wiring replacement in Malaga

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 Malaga

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.
