How much does it cost to rewire a whole house professionally?

Professional whole-house rewiring cost varies widely and is set after an on-site inspection because price depends on home size, wiring condition, access, and any required code upgrades. The most common drivers are opening finished walls and adding new grounded circuits and safety devices (like GFCI/AFCI) to meet current standards.

Homeowners often choose a full rewire when inspections uncover aging or unsafe wiring, or when repeated electrical issues point to widespread faults. Bringing a system up to code can involve panel work and new circuits; a skilled team maps the existing system first, then prices the scope before any work begins. Our licensed electricians regularly handle full rewires across the Columbus area, and we explain your options up front.

What typically affects price and scope:

• Square footage and number of circuits
• Access to walls/attic/basement versus finished spaces
• Panel capacity and service upgrades
• Patch/repair needs and fixture or device replacements
