SAFER WIRING, SAFER HOME
Modern Electrical Solutions for Your Peace of Mind
Outdated or damaged electrical wiring isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a serious safety hazard. Faulty wires are a leading cause of residential fires, and older systems can struggle to keep up with the demands of modern appliances and technology, leading to tripped breakers and flickering lights. If your home was built decades ago, it may contain aluminum or knob and tube wiring that no longer meets current safety codes and may even affect your ability to get homeowners’ insurance.
At Guy Smith Home Services, we provide comprehensive house rewiring services to ensure your home’s electrical system is safe, reliable, and efficient. Our team of certified electricians proudly serves homeowners throughout the Virginia Beach area, including Norfolk and Chesapeake, delivering superior workmanship and lasting peace of mind. We specialize in replacing hazardous old wiring with modern, high-quality copper wiring that protects your property and powers your life.

KEY BENEFIT
Protect Your Home and Family with Enhanced Safety
Your home’s electrical system works silently behind the walls, but outdated wiring can pose a significant threat. Materials like knob and tube or aluminum wiring are prone to degradation, overheating, and creating serious fire hazards. These older systems lack the grounding necessary for modern electronics, increasing the risk of electrical shocks and home surges that can damage your valuable devices.
A whole-house rewire by Guy Smith Home Services is one of the most important investments you can make in your family’s safety. By replacing deteriorated and unsafe wires with a modern, properly grounded system, you drastically reduce the risk of electrical fires and create a secure environment. Our process ensures every connection is sound and every circuit is protected.
ADDED VALUE
Boost Your Home's Performance and Value
In today’s connected world, a home’s electrical system is its central nervous system. An outdated system can’t handle the power demands of modern life, leading to frequently tripped breakers, flickering lights when appliances turn on, and a shortage of outlets. This limits your ability to use high-draw appliances, smart home technology, and entertainment systems effectively.
Rewiring your home is an upgrade that prepares it for the future. With new, dedicated circuits and an upgraded electrical panel, you’ll have all the power you need, where you need it. This means you can run your air conditioner, computer, and kitchen appliances simultaneously without issue. It also provides the foundation for future improvements like EV charger installations or major kitchen renovations.

YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
Frequently Asked Questions About House Rewiring
Deciding to rewire your home can bring up a lot of questions. We’ve compiled answers to some of the most common inquiries we receive to help you make an informed choice. For any other questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our knowledgeable team.
How do I know if my house needs to be rewired?
Common signs include frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering or dimming lights, a burning smell from outlets, discolored switches or outlets, or the presence of outdated knob and tube or aluminum wiring. If your home is over 40 years old, an inspection is highly recommended.
What is knob and tube or aluminum wiring?
Knob and tube wiring was used in homes from the 1880s to the 1940s and lacks a ground wire, making it unsafe for modern appliances. Aluminum wiring was used in the 1960s and 70s and is known to pose a fire hazard due to connections loosening over time. Both should be replaced.
How long does a whole-house rewire take?
A full rewire for an average-sized home typically takes between 3 to 10 days, depending on the size of the house, its construction, and the complexity of the job. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your household.
Is rewiring a messy process?
Our electricians are trained to be as minimally invasive as possible. We may need to cut small, precise openings in the drywall to run new wires, but we take great care to protect your home and clean up our work area thoroughly at the end of each day.
What is the approximate cost of rewiring a home?
The cost varies significantly based on your home’s size, age, and accessibility. We provide a detailed, upfront quote after a thorough inspection so you know the exact cost before any work begins.
Still Have Questions?
Every home is unique, and so are its electrical needs. If you have questions or concerns about your home’s wiring, our friendly and experienced team is here to provide the answers you need. We believe in empowering our customers with information so they can feel confident in their decisions.
