We inspect accessible wiring and trace circuits to understand what the old conductors supply.

Review the estimate

We provide a free estimate for the proposed work and discuss the scope with you.

Replace and test the wiring

We install the agreed wiring and test the affected circuits.

A situation this service fits

A homeowner might find old wiring while planning a room update. We'd assess the circuit and discuss a replacement route before the room work proceeds.

Choosing the right scope for old wiring

Wiring scope and access

The wiring route matters when you plan work around occupied rooms. We'll discuss access before agreeing on the job.

A separate fixture fault

A faulty light fixture alone doesn't establish that old wiring needs replacement. We also offer lighting and electrical repair when those services fit the problem.

Insured electrical work

We're insured for the electrical services we provide. You'll have a team that handles residential and commercial work.

Focused replacement or broader rewiring

The wiring scope determines which approach fits the property.

Whole-home rewiring	Addresses wiring across the property more broadly.	Fits a broader electrical work plan.

Tracing old wiring and planning new circuits

Circuit tracing: We follow the circuit to identify the wiring and outlets or lights it supplies.

Questions about old wiring and replacement

What problems make knob and tube wiring unsafe for Knob And Tube Wiring Replacement?

Loose connections can create heat, and GMB Electric can assess the affected wiring for hazards. Brittle insulation can expose conductors, while overloaded circuits can place too much demand on wiring. Missing grounding is another concern at outlets and equipment that need it. We'll explain what we find and discuss the work that fits your property.

Which parts of a replacement job change the price?

Circuit access and the amount of wiring being replaced change the price. A route through accessible spaces presents a different scope from wiring concealed behind finished surfaces. Related panel work can also affect the quote. We'll discuss the areas included in the proposed job so you can make a decision with the scope in view.

When does a tripping breaker call for wiring work?

A repeatedly tripping breaker calls for an electrical assessment, but it doesn't prove old wiring needs replacement. A fault or excessive load can also trip a breaker. We can check the affected circuit and discuss the cause. Don't keep resetting a breaker that trips again, and don't replace it yourself to try to stop the problem.

Can new outlets be added to the replacement plan?

Yes, new outlets can be discussed as part of a wiring replacement plan. Their placement and the circuit serving them affect the work we propose. Tell us where you need outlets and how you plan to use them. We'll assess the circuit and explain whether the requested outlet work fits the agreed scope.

How should I prepare for an electrical assessment?

A list of affected lights and outlets helps us assess your wiring concern. Any inspection report or record of past electrical work can also be useful. Please tell us where you've noticed old wiring and which areas are accessible. We'll use that information to discuss the assessment and what the proposed replacement would cover.
