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

Whole‑house rewiring with Dawson’s Electric & Air is priced by a custom, on‑site quote because total cost depends on your home and the exact scope of work. The most common driver is the amount of wiring to replace and the labor needed to access it safely. We handle permits, work to the latest NEC standards, and explain options before any work begins; for larger installs, we can provide a free estimate with clear pricing. Our teams routinely perform this kind of project across the Triangle. A full walk‑through tells us more than blueprints alone, especially around attic or crawl access that can change labor hours significantly. Many homes only need targeted circuit rewires; we advise a full rewire when aging wiring is widespread or presents safety risks. Schedule an in‑home assessment to receive a firm, itemized proposal.

Key factors that set the final price:

• Square footage and number of floors
• Panel capacity and whether an upgrade is needed
• Wall/ceiling access vs. finished surfaces to preserve
• Required GFCI/AFCI and grounding upgrades to meet code
• Permit and inspection requirements in your jurisdiction
