We find out what your old wiring really is, then replace the original circuits where that's the right answer, across Minneapolis, St. Paul and nearby inner-ring suburbs.

## What we do

We do one kind of job and we do it carefully: old wiring in old houses. Most Minneapolis houses have been updated in pieces over the years, so very few are all original or all modern. That's why every job starts the same way, with us tracing every circuit from your fuse box or panel.

## How the work runs

- On the first visit we trace every circuit, then give you a written scope: what we'll replace, where we expect to open walls and what patching is included.
- The permit goes in before work starts: with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry in Minneapolis, or the City of Saint Paul in St. Paul.
- We run new grounded cable through the spaces your house already has, so walls open only where they must.
- We switch circuits over one at a time, keep your heat on, cover floors and close or protect openings at the end of each day.
- At the end you get a written record: the circuit list, a panel directory, what we disconnected and how we tested it, and the permit and inspection dates.

## What we don't do

We don't take on aluminum branch wiring, low-voltage or data cabling, or general service calls unrelated to old wiring. Painting, decorative plaster and insulation belong to other trades, and your scope says where our work ends.

## Pricing

We price from your traced circuit list, not a guess at the door. Our typical range for a whole-house knob and tube replacement is $12,000 to $36,600, and the cost guide shows what moves a house within it. The free cost estimator gives you a range for your house before we visit.

## Reaching us
