Whole House Rewiring in Los Angeles County

Electrical wiring is the foundation of your home’s safety and performance. If your home was built before 1980, chances are your wiring system is outdated — and possibly unsafe.

At 911 Construction & Electric Inc., we specialize in whole-house rewiring across Los Angeles County, replacing old aluminum, knob-and-tube, or damaged wiring with modern, grounded systems built for today’s electrical demands.

Why Rewiring Is Critical for Older Homes

Los Angeles is filled with beautiful, historic homes — but behind the walls, many still have decades-old wiring. These systems weren’t designed for modern electrical loads, and they often pose fire hazards or code violations.

Common risks include:

  • Frayed or cracked insulation

  • Ungrounded outlets

  • Overloaded circuits

  • No GFCI/AFCI protection

  • Fire hazards hidden behind walls

When to Consider a Whole-House Rewire

You should consider rewiring if your home has:

  • Flickering lights or constant breaker trips

  • Aluminum or cloth wiring

  • Two-prong outlets with no ground

  • Burning smells near outlets or panels

  • Home insurance non-renewal due to outdated systems

What’s Involved in a Rewire Project

A whole-house rewire involves replacing every circuit, outlet, and switch with modern copper wiring. Our process includes:

  1. Electrical inspection & planning

  2. Permit and load calculation

  3. Safe removal of old wiring

  4. Installation of grounded copper wires and new outlets

  5. Testing and final inspection

We coordinate every step with Los Angeles County inspectors for a smooth, compliant finish.

Code Compliance & Modern Safety Features

Every rewire is done to California Electrical Code (CEC) standards, including GFCI protection in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas, and AFCI breakers in living spaces.

All materials are UL-listed, and every project passes inspection the first time.

FAQs — Whole House Rewiring

1. How do I know if my home needs to be rewired?
If your Los Angeles home has aluminum wiring, two-prong outlets, frequent shorts, or flickering lights, it’s likely time for a rewire. Homes built before 1980 often lack grounding or modern breaker protection (AFCI/GFCI). A full inspection from our licensed electricians will confirm whether a whole-house rewire is needed for safety and code compliance.
Most whole-house rewires in Los Angeles County take 5–10 days, depending on the home’s size and wall accessibility. We complete the project in phases to minimize disruption — rewiring one section at a time while keeping portions of the home operational whenever possible.
Our electricians use non-invasive wiring techniques, fishing wires through existing cavities whenever possible. Some small access holes may be needed for routing new cables, but we patch and prepare those areas for easy repainting. The result is a clean, modern, and code-compliant electrical system that looks as good as it performs.
