Professional Wiring is Safe Wiring
Expertly installed wiring is essential for the safety of your home, business, or any other premises.

Professional wiring companies like DR Electric know how to assess the age of electrical systems and help you determine if an upgrade is necessary. Additionally, we understand the local and national regulations that must be followed when installing new wiring. This ensures that all codes are met and that all safety measures are in place.

When Should You Rewire Your Home?
At DR electric, we recommend that homeowners rewire their homes at least every 25 years, as the wiring in a house can become damaged or compromised over time. To determine if your home needs rewiring, it is important to inspect any exposed wiring for signs of wear and tear, such as fraying, burning, or corrosion. Additionally, look for the age of your existing wiring system; while the average lifespan of wiring is around 25 years, it can be affected by many factors including exposure to moisture and temperature extremes.
If you notice any damage or potentially dangerous conditions, it is important to take immediate action to have a licensed electrician inspect and replace the wiring in your home. Additionally, if your home has not been rewired since prior to 1993 when grounded receptacles began being installed in residential settings, then an upgrade is recommended even if your current system appears to be functioning properly.
Finally, even if you do not suspect any electrical issues with your home’s wiring system, it’s still a good idea to hire an electrician to perform a thorough inspection every few years — especially after 25 years — to ensure all wires are securely fastened and insulated.
