Electrical Rewiring Services
Old wiring doesn’t fail all at once. It deteriorates quietly, creating safety risks that are invisible until something goes wrong. Rhodes Electric, Inc. provides thorough rewiring assessments and complete rewiring services for homes and businesses throughout Southwest Riverside County and North San Diego County. Whether you have aluminum branch wiring from the 1970s, original cloth-wrapped wiring in an older home, or wiring that’s been compromised by pests or moisture, our licensed team will assess the scope honestly and do the work right.
We’re a licensed C-10 electrical contractor with nearly two decades of experience. Permits pulled on every job.
If your home is more than 40 years old and the wiring has never been assessed or updated, a rewiring evaluation is a reasonable step, not because older wiring automatically fails, but because knowing what you have is better than not knowing.

Signs Your Home May Need Rewiring
- Aluminum branch-circuit wiring: common in homes built between 1965 and 1975. Aluminum expands and contracts differently than copper, causing connections to loosen over time and creating fire risk at outlets and switches.
- Knob-and-tube wiring: original wiring found in homes built before the 1950s. It has no ground wire, cannot be covered with insulation, and is now 70+ years old.
- Cloth or rubber-sheathed wiring: insulation that has dried out, cracked, or become brittle with age.
- Frequent breaker trips or flickering lights: symptoms that can indicate wiring that's undersized, damaged, or overloaded.
- Burning smell or discolored outlets: signs of a wiring fault that should be addressed immediately.
- Two-prong ungrounded outlets throughout the home: an indicator that the wiring has never been updated.
- A home that has been added onto over the decades: additions often involve wiring from multiple eras that don't always integrate correctly.

Our Rewiring Services
Whole-Home Rewiring
We replace all branch-circuit wiring from the panel to every outlet, switch, and fixture throughout the home. This is a significant project, typically done in coordination with other updates (panel upgrade, permit process, inspection), and results in a complete modern electrical system with a ground wire throughout.
Partial Rewiring
Not every home needs a full rewire. If specific circuits or areas of the home have wiring problems, we can address those sections without touching wiring that’s in good condition. We’ll give you an honest assessment of what needs replacing and what doesn’t.
Aluminum Wiring Remediation
Aluminum branch-circuit wiring can be addressed without a full rewire in many cases. Using approved CO/ALR devices and anti-oxidant compound at all connections, we can bring aluminum-wired homes to a safe, code-compliant condition. We’ll tell you honestly when this approach is appropriate and when a full rewire is the better path.
Rewiring for Additions & Renovations
Adding to your home or opening up walls during a remodel is an ideal time to update wiring that would otherwise be inaccessible. We coordinate with your contractor or GC to make sure electrical runs are done before walls close.
Code Compliance
Rewiring Homes with unpermitted wiring, previous DIY work, or wiring that no longer meets current NEC standards: we assess and bring systems up to code.

How the Rewiring Process Works
Assessment
We start with a thorough walk-through of the home: panel, outlets, switches, visible wiring, and attic or crawlspace if accessible. We identify what's there, what's in good shape, and what needs attention.
Scope & Quote
We give you a clear, written scope of work and a straight quote. No pressure and no upsells on work you don't need.
Permit
All rewiring work requires a permit. We pull it through the appropriate jurisdiction (City of Murrieta, City of Temecula, Riverside County, San Diego County, etc.) and manage the inspection scheduling.
The Work
Rewiring is done methodically, room by room. We work to minimize disruption to your walls and ceilings, most wiring can be fished through existing cavities without opening every surface.
Inspection & CloseOut
We schedule and pass the final inspection. You receive documentation of the completed, permitted work
