How Much Does Electrical Wiring in a House Cost?

The cost for a residential electrical wiring service varies drastically based on a wide range of issues.

There are several factors at play, including:

• The size of your home
• The size of the wiring project
• The scope of the wiring project – for example, new additions such as media rooms, sound systems, security systems, etc.

Providing a hard estimate is difficult without knowing any of the above. To get started on a home assessment, contact the pros at Haven Home today.

Wiring FAQs

How Do I Know When It's Time to Replace My Electrical Wiring?

If your home is on aluminum electrical wiring, you should call an electrical contractor to replace it right away. Aluminum wiring is not safe, and most insurance companies will no longer allow for coverage of homes that still use it.

If your home is on knob & tube wiring, you might want to consider upgrading to a more modern system.

How Long Does It Take an Electrician to Wire a House?

How long it takes an electrical contractor to wire a house depends largely on the house’s size. For a bungalow, for example, a relative estimate would be about one week. Homes with additional floors can expect an extra week for each floor. This is still, however, an estimate; the actual time will vary from house to house and project to project.

How Long Does a Home's Electrical Wiring Last?

• Copper wiring will last a very long time.
• Aluminum, however, will last around 20 years, and should be replaced at that point.

Can I (and Should I) Remove Old Unused Electrical Wiring?

No, not yourself; never attempt to move or remove old wiring yourself.

A certified electrical contractor should be dispatched to inspect it themselves and confirm that it is, in fact, unused. Attempting to do so yourself is not safe and could result in severe injury or even death.
