Knob-and-Tube & Aluminum Wiring Replacement

What this involves.

Knob-and-tube and aluminum branch wiring can overheat, loosen at connections, and struggle with the loads homes carry today, and many insurers flag them. We identify where this wiring runs, plan replacement to keep disruption down, and swap it out for properly sized copper with modern boxes and devices. Where a full replacement is not practical, we use approved methods to make connections safe. We add the grounding and protection current code calls for, tie everything back to your panel, and handle permits and inspection so you have documentation of safe, updated wiring.

• Locating and assessing knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring throughout the home
• Planning replacement to minimize cutting and keep rooms usable
• Removing old conductors and installing properly sized copper runs
• Using approved connections and devices rated for the wiring in place
• Adding grounding and required protection at outlets and circuits
• Tying updated circuits back to the panel with clear labeling
• Permitting, inspection, and documentation of the completed work
