Rewiring Service

Why Rewire?

If your home, or a residence you intend to purchase was built 40 or more years ago, chances are there may be some outdated and overloaded fuse boxes and circuit panels, or potentially hazardous aluminium circuits and wiring in place.

Old or newer, damaged wiring of any kind needs to be replaced to keep your family, employees and customers comfortable and safe. Wire damage can be caused by a variety of factors, including rodent damage, over heating, water damage, or abuse of any kind and can be addressed quickly and cost effectively by getting in touch with Ric Ginn Electric’s rewiring service specialists.

Can You Rewire Part of a Home or Just a Room?

You don’t always have to rewire your entire property. Many homes and commercial buildings only need targeted rewiring, especially when there’s an isolated problem or renovation taking place in a specific area. Whether it’s just a kitchen remodel, basement conversion, or office update, partial rewiring can bring that space up to modern standards.

Our electricians can assess the situation and isolate outdated wiring, then safely replace or upgrade only the sections that need it. It’s a cost-effective way to improve safety and reliability without overhauling your entire system.

Rewiring for Appliance Installation

Without the implementation of current hookups in your Kansas City, Mo home or commercial property, installing a new appliance is dangerous and not recommended by electricians, insurance companies and governing electrical codes.

Professionally installed hookups ensure high-current utilities like your washer and dryer, or dishwasher and stove, are drawing the correct amount of electricity for their capacity, without tripping breakers and interrupting electrical service to other appliances.

Ric Ginn Electric equips our team of licensed electrical technicians with a full suite of tools and installation components to ensure your rewiring service goes off without a hitch, no matter how large or small your new appliance or wiring project may be.

Can You Rewire a Home Without Damaging the Walls?

This is one of the most common concerns when it comes to rewiring. The good news is that experienced electricians know how to minimize damage.

Here, we use non-invasive techniques whenever possible to preserve the structure and finishes of your home. In finished walls, we fish wiring through existing cavities or use attic and crawl space access. Small holes may still be needed, but we work neatly and patch carefully. If your home has plaster walls, historical finishes, or limited access, we’ll create a customized plan that balances code compliance with minimal impact.

What Are Common Code Violations Found During Rewiring?

Electrical rewiring is often about meeting current electrical code standards. During the process, however, we often uncover several issues.

One of the most common violations is the lack of GFCI protection in kitchens, bathrooms, and exterior outlets. These ground fault circuit interrupters are now required to reduce the risk of shock and are often missing in older homes.

Knob-and-tube wiring, while common in houses built before the 1940s, is another red flag and a major safety concern.

We also find problems like overcrowded junction boxes, open splices, and improper wire sizes.

All of these issues can lead to serious hazards over time. Our rewiring services are built around correcting these problems efficiently and thoroughly, ensuring your home passes inspection and performs safely.
