Aluminum Wiring Rewiring for Older Homes in New Jersey

Preserve your treasured real estate:​ Discover the Power of Safety, Heritage & Peace of Mind

rewiring of wall of NJ home

Are you the proud owner of a historic home or building? 

We understand the timeless charm and character they bring. Yet, outdated aluminum wiring can pose a significant safety risk. That's where we come in. 

If your home was built between 1965 and 1973, there’s a high chance it contains aluminum wiring — a known fire hazard that affects thousands of homes across New Jersey.

Aluminum wiring was used as a cheaper alternative to copper during a period of high copper prices. 

While it worked initially, it expands and contracts at a different rate than copper and other metals, leading to loose connections, overheating and dangerous arcing.

We specialize in safe, code-compliant aluminum wiring replacement with modern copper wiring — giving you peace of mind and protecting your family and property.
