Many houses in the Hudson Valley area were constructed long ago, which means they may have outdated electrical systems. These electrical systems can quickly become unsafe without more modern equipment and wiring.
If you have experienced any of the following issues in your home, you should speak with an expert electrician immediately, as it may indicate that your wiring is unstable:
- Flickering Lights
- Electrical Shocks
- Warm Outlets or Switches
- Old Outlets
We at T.Webber Plumbing, Heating, Air & Electric want to help ensure electrical safety in your home by updating your wiring. To learn more about how we can help with wiring and rewiring in the Hudson Valley, Poughkeepsie, and Westchester, get in touch with us.
Home Electrical Rewiring Services
When our experienced electricians come to rewire your home, we will first examine what kind of wiring is currently installed. If we notice either of the following wiring processes, we will replace them with new, reliable, and safe wiring solutions:
- Aluminum Wiring: Homes with aluminum wiring from the mid-60s to early 70s can face fire risks due to overheating at connections or splices. CPSC research indicates that homes with pre-1972 aluminum wire are 55 times more likely to reach “Fire Hazard Conditions” compared to copper-wired homes.
- Knob and Tube Wiring: Older homes constructed between the late 1800s and early 1940s may have outdated ‘knob and tube’ wiring, which is ungrounded and poses serious dangers. This obsolete system should be replaced with modern copper wiring to prevent fire and health hazards, allowing the use of three-pronged outlets and appliances.
We are dedicated to your safety and will prioritize your needs when rewiring your house. Reach out to us today for assistance.
