Knob and Tube Wiring Replacement Fort Myers

Homeowners across Southwest Florida run into the same problem: a breaker panel built for a couple of window units and a coffee maker now has to run whole-house HVAC systems, a range, and several devices charging at once. Our Cape Coral electrician crews see it constantly in older neighborhoods, where the original wiring simply wasn't sized for today's electrical loads.

Knob and tube wiring routes hot and neutral conductors through porcelain knob insulators and tubes, with no ground wire and only cloth insulation that crumbles after decades in a humid attic or crawl space. We open walls at the panel, in the attic, and in any accessible chase, then pull new copper wiring sized for the property's power system. Where a prior owner buried the old wiring under blown-in insulation or spliced it illegally behind a switch plate, we replace that section outright instead of patching around it. A full rewire often includes a 200-amp panel change-out, GFCI receptacle installation in kitchens and baths, and dedicated circuits for the laundry room and HVAC systems. Every run gets grounded, tested, and checked against the National Electrical Code and local building codes before we close the walls back up.
