House rewiring and knob and tube replacement in Shasta Lake, California
If your Shasta Lake home has two-prong outlets, no ground, warm switch plates or an insurance company asking questions, the wiring is the issue. We rewire in planned phases so the house stays livable, and we cut access holes where they patch cleanly instead of wherever is fastest.

Recent Shasta Lake feedback
We rewired in stages so we could keep living here. They planned the access holes where the patcher could actually fix them, which I did not expect.
Ellen and Ray M.Shasta Lake, CACalled at 9:40 on a Sunday night with an outlet that had started smoking. Someone picked up, someone came, and it was made safe before midnight.
Dan K.Shasta Lake, CAAdded four outlets and GFCI protection in the garage and laundry. Small job, treated like a real one. Fair price, no upsell.
Lorraine T.Shasta Lake, CAWhole House Rewiring in Shasta Lake — questions we get asked
Do I have to move out during a rewire?
Usually not. We work in phases and keep power on to the areas you are using. Larger Shasta County projects sometimes have a day or two where it is easier to be elsewhere.
Is aluminum wiring dangerous?
Aluminum branch wiring from the 1960s and 70s is not inherently unusable, but its connections loosen and overheat over time. Remediation with listed connectors or replacement resolves it.
Will you patch the drywall?
We cut planned, patch-ready access and coordinate closely with your patcher or painter. Ask and we will quote the rewire with patching included.
How much does it cost to rewire a house in Shasta Lake?
Whole-home rewires in Shasta Lake are priced by square footage, circuit count and access — a single-story home with an accessible attic and crawlspace costs far less than a two-story plaster home. We walk it, then give one firm number.
How do I know if I have knob and tube wiring?
Look in the attic or basement for individual wires running through white ceramic knobs and tubes. Two-prong outlets throughout and a fuse box are strong supporting signs.
