How much does house rewiring cost per square foot?

Wes Carver Electric does not price whole‑home rewiring by a fixed cost per square foot; we provide upfront, scope‑based pricing after an in‑home assessment. The biggest swing in cost usually comes from the home’s age and wiring type (like knob‑and‑tube or aluminum) and how much new circuitry the home needs. We design a custom plan, handle safe rewiring to current standards, and verify performance at the end. If only a few circuits are outdated, targeted rewiring can be more practical than a full rewire. Our team frequently updates older homes in the East Norriton area and can integrate options like a 200‑amp panel upgrade or a whole‑home surge protector, with our 100% satisfaction guarantee on workmanship and materials for up to 5 years when you follow our recommendations.

What typically drives the final price:

• Panel work or service upgrades (including complete 200‑amp replacements)
• Extent of new outlets, switches, and AFCI/GFCI protection
• Replacing obsolete wiring types and bringing grounding and bonding up to current standards
• Add‑ons such as whole‑home surge protection or EV‑charger‑ready circuits
