How It Works

Our Electrical Rewiring Process

Rewiring a home is a significant project. Here is how King Electric and Solar approaches it from the first conversation to project close.

01Step 1

On-Site Assessment

We visit your property in Auburn or a nearby service area, review the existing wiring, identify problem areas, and give you a clear picture of what needs to be done.

02Step 2

Scope and Planning

We outline the full scope of work, including which circuits are being replaced, how access points will be managed, and whether a panel upgrade makes sense alongside the rewire.

03Step 3

Permit Coordination

Rewiring typically requires a permit. We handle that process so the work is inspected and meets current California electrical code from the start.

04Step 4

Rewiring Installation

Our electricians run new wiring, install updated outlets and switches, and connect everything back through a properly grounded system. We work cleanly and keep disruption to a minimum.

05Step 5

Final Inspection and Walkthrough

Once work is complete, we walk you through what was done, confirm all circuits are functioning correctly, and make sure you have documentation of the completed project.

Frequently asked

Electrical Rewiring Questions

Find clear answers about service options, scheduling, preparation, and what to expect before you request an estimate.

Q1

How do I know if my home needs rewiring?

Common signs include frequently tripped breakers, flickering lights, burning smells near outlets, two-prong ungrounded outlets throughout the home, or wiring that has not been updated in several decades. A professional inspection gives you a clear answer.

Q2

How long does a whole-home rewire typically take?

Most whole-home rewiring projects take between three and seven days depending on the size of the home and the complexity of the existing wiring. We give you a realistic timeline before work begins.

Q3

Do I need to leave my home during the rewiring?

Not necessarily. We schedule work in phases where possible to keep parts of the home functional. That said, there will be periods without power in certain areas, so we coordinate the schedule around your situation.

Q4

Is a permit required for electrical rewiring in Auburn, CA?

Yes. Rewiring projects in California require a permit and inspection through your local building department. King Electric and Solar manages that process to keep your project code-compliant.

Q5

Can rewiring be done without opening every wall?

In some cases, yes. Techniques like fishing wire through existing wall cavities can reduce drywall impact. The extent of wall access needed depends on your home's construction and the scope of the rewire.

Q6

Should I combine a panel upgrade with rewiring?

If your panel is undersized or aging, doing both at once often makes practical sense. It avoids a second round of work later and ensures the panel can handle the load the new wiring is designed to carry.

Q7

Do you serve areas outside of Auburn?

Yes. We regularly work in Roseville, Rocklin, Folsom, Lincoln, Grass Valley, Nevada City, and El Dorado Hills, along with Auburn and the broader Placer County area.

Q8

What type of wiring do you install during a rewire?

We install copper wiring in accordance with current NEC and California electrical code standards, properly sized for each circuit's intended load and connected to a grounded system throughout the home.
