Older DFW neighborhoods — especially homes built in the 1960s and 70s — often still have outdated or aluminum wiring that no longer meets safe capacity for modern homes. We handle full-home and partial rewiring projects with minimal disruption to walls and finishes.
Typical Cost Range
| Scope | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Partial rewire (single room or circuit group) | $1,500 – $4,000 |
| Full-home rewire (avg. DFW home) | $8,000 – $18,000+ |
⚡ The Industry Truth
What some companies say: "Aluminum wiring is fine as long as it hasn't failed yet."
What's actually true: Aluminum wiring is a known fire risk as connections loosen over time — it's a "when," not "if" problem. We tell customers honestly when it's time to address it instead of waiting for a failure.
"We had Truth Electric came out to re-wire our lighting display and some other light fixtures. Brian and August did a fantastic job. Trey Garland was very fair on his quote. You could not ask for a more professional crew."
FAQ
How do I know if my home needs rewiring?
Warning signs include flickering lights, warm outlet covers, a fuse box instead of breakers, or aluminum wiring — common in DFW homes built in the 1960s-70s.
Do I have to rewire my whole house at once?
No — we can phase a rewiring project room by room or prioritize the highest-risk circuits first.
How long does a full rewire take?
A full-home rewire typically takes 3-7 days depending on square footage and wall access.
