Why House Rewiring Isn’t Just Another Chore
While no one likes to foot the bill (or the time) for a major overhaul, all systems wear out eventually, including your home electrical.
As electrical standards change, your home’s electrical might be out of date and need replacements to support your changing electrical load. To get rid of frequent problems and safety hazards, call Service Minds Mister Sparky to schedule your home rewiring.

Types of Wiring
When you are considering your home rewiring, you can take into account factors like the material and wiring type.
Don’t worry you don’t have to understand the differences. We can help you choose what works best.
- Copper wiring has the highest conductivity and is the most durable so it’s common in Sarasota homes.
- Aluminum wiring can be used with the right technique although it does have the risk of issues with connections and Heat generation.
- NM cable is standard for most homes, called Romex but we can also help you get added protection in risk areas with armored cable.
When you opt for home rewiring we can help you determine whether you can get by with a partial rewire, rewiring a specific part of your home or certain circuits or whether you need to replace all of the wiring.
