Our Home Rewiring Services

From full home rewiring to targeted code compliance upgrades, we cover every aspect of your home's electrical safety.

Full Home Rewiring

Complete replacement of outdated or unsafe wiring systems in older Des Moines area homes. We upgrade your entire electrical system to meet current safety standards and support modern power demands, with minimal disruption to your home.

Panel Upgrades & Replacement

Upgrade your electrical panel to safely handle today's power loads. We evaluate existing capacity, recommend the right amperage upgrade, and install code-compliant panels for Des Moines area homes. Pricing ranges from $3,000–$15,000 based on complexity.

Arc Fault Breaker Installation

AFCI breakers detect dangerous electrical arcs that standard breakers miss — critical in older Iowa homes. We install, test, and verify protection on each circuit, bringing your home closer to current Iowa electrical code requirements.

Circuit Breaker Repair & Replacement

Frequent trips, buzzing panels, or burning smells near your breaker box demand immediate attention. Our licensed technicians provide free panel checkups, upfront pricing, and code-compliant repairs or replacements — all backed by warranty.

Electrical Safety Evaluation

Complimentary safety evaluation included with every service call. Using a Digital Voltage Analyzer, we detect overloaded circuits and hidden risks in your panel — providing three repair options with transparent pricing and zero pressure to proceed.

Garage & Outbuilding Wiring

Code-compliant wiring for garages, shops, and outbuildings up to 100 feet from your main panel. We handle permits, load sizing, new circuit runs, and final load testing — supporting tools, EV chargers, heaters, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a house built in 1950 need rewiring?

In most cases, yes. Homes built in the 1950s typically contain knob-and-tube or early aluminum wiring that was never designed to support today's electrical loads. These systems lack proper grounding, cannot safely power modern appliances, and significantly increase fire risk. A licensed electrician should inspect the wiring and panel to determine what upgrades are needed to bring the home up to current Iowa electrical code.
