Whole Home Rewiring in Milwaukee

Outdated wiring is not only inconvenient, sometimes leading to outages, but also dangerous. Electrical malfunctions are listed as one of the leading causes of house fires by the U.S. Fire Administration. With homes needing to support more and more technology, you need a durable and up-to-date electrical system that can keep up.

At Current Electric, our experienced electricians in Milwaukee provide custom home rewiring solutions for a wide range of local residential properties. We have the tools, resources, and knowledge to complete every rewiring job quickly, safely, and effectively—with no job being too big or small.

To learn more about our whole home rewiring solutions, call Current Electric today at (262) 214-5598.

Is It Time to Replace Your Electrical Wiring?

Older homes will not have the electrical infrastructure in place to meet modern technology, so if your home was built before 1970, it might not have the wiring needed to keep up—and many homes built before 1950 won’t meet the requirements of the National Electrical Code Standards.

Luckily, our team will perform a detailed evaluation of your electrical system, checking for any uninsulated or fabric-insulated wires. Then, if needed, we will completely replace your home's old, outdated electrical wiring with safer wiring and up to code.

Signs Your Home Needs Rewiring:

  • Flickering lights: Frequent flickering is a sign of loose wiring connections, which will only worsen if left unchecked.
  • Overheating outlets: If your wiring is too short, it can cause hot spots or black marks around your outlets.
  • Blown-out fuses: Outdated power boxes that aren’t properly maintained will lead to more and more blown-out fuses, potentially causing major property damage.
  • Foul smells: A burning smell near your appliances or outlets is another sign of short wiring.
  • Excessive extension cords: The more extension cords you have, the more opportunity there is to create pinched wires, tripped breakers, or damaged outlets.

Commonly Asked Questions

How does outdated wiring affect my home?

Outdated wiring can significantly impact your home's safety and functionality. It may lead to frequent electrical outages, which can disrupt your daily life and damage your appliances. More critically, old wiring is a leading cause of house fires. Homes built before 1970 often lack the necessary infrastructure to support modern technology, making them vulnerable to electrical malfunctions.

What is the process for evaluating my home's wiring?

The evaluation process for your home's wiring begins with a thorough inspection by our qualified electricians. We will assess your current electrical system, looking for outdated components such as uninsulated or fabric-insulated wires. Our team will check for common issues like flickering lights, overheating outlets, and blown fuses. Based on our findings, we will provide you with a detailed report and recommendations for necessary upgrades.

How long does a whole home rewiring project typically take?

The duration of a whole home rewiring project can vary based on several factors, including the size of your home, the complexity of the existing wiring, and the specific requirements of the new installation. Generally, smaller homes may take a few days to complete, while larger properties could require a week or more. Our team will provide you with a detailed timeline during the initial consultation, ensuring you are informed every step of the way.

    All you hear today is how hard it is to get trades to answer or return a phone call. This was not the case with their online appointment; it was a breeze. As for the workmanship, it was first-rate, on-time, and polite

    “Professional, Incredibly Responsive, and in Tune with Each Other”
    I contacted Current Electric to design and install a residential solar system for my house, after having had a bad experience with a different provider. The several staff I worked with were all very professional, incredibly responsive, and best of all - they were all in tune with each other, so that the service was always seamless, regardless of whom I was speaking to in the moment. I contacted them in April and my system has been up and running for several weeks now.
