Old Wire Electric is a company that is an expert in repairing and upgrading houses with older electrical wiring and panels. When my wife and I bought our house, we inspected the house and found many electrical problems. The seller refused to fix any electrical problem so we had to get the addressed ourselves. The original panel was a mess. The old owner changed from a 1950s 50 amp panel to a 100 amp panel, however they ran the whole house off one 30 amp fuse and ran the garage off another 30 amp fuse. We tripped breakers and lose power all the time. Additionally, there were few outlets, existing outlets were bad, switches operated nothing, and most circuits were not electrically grounded.
After searching and interviewing electrical companies we picked Old Wire Electric. They set up a project to fix a large number of our problems. They let us priorities so we could limit our spending. Old Wire Electric brought in a team of 12 electricians, added many GFI outlets, redistributed the panel so we used all 100 amps, replace bad boxes and breakers, added 3-wire connections for kitchen appliances, wand labeled all the breakers in the electrical panel. They ran wires had to in the crawl space and in the attic. They replaced faulty thermostat wiring. In the end we could depend on more reliable electric power in our house for the first time.
Two years latter we saved up enough money to install air conditioning. We had Old Wire Electric replace and reposition our electrical panel to 200 AMP and move the location of the electrical connection to our house.
