Whole-Home Rewiring for Older Baltimore Homes
Knob-and-tube, cloth, and aluminum wiring replaced with modern copper.
Baltimore row homes and pre-war colonials are full of wiring that was legal in 1940 and dangerous now. Knob-and-tube has no ground. Cloth insulation crumbles. Aluminum branch circuits loosen at every connection and heat up.
A rewire replaces the branch circuits, devices, and panel as one system, so your home is grounded, arc-fault protected, and insurable again.

Whole-Home Rewire — frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to rewire a house in Baltimore?
Most row homes land between $8,500 and $15,000. Larger detached homes with finished basements run $15,000–$25,000. We quote per scope, in writing.
Do I have to move out?
Usually no. We work floor by floor and keep power on in the parts of the house we are not touching.
Is aluminum wiring always replaced?
Not always. Sometimes approved connector remediation is enough. We tell you which one your home needs.
Do you offer financing?
Yes, and we can split the project into deposit and completion payments.
