For the 2025–2026 period, the average cost to rewire a 2,000 sq ft home typically ranges between $10,000 and $15,000.
The actual price within this range depends on several project-specific factors and the complexity of the installation. Key considerations include:
- Panel Upgrades: Moving to a 100-amp or 200-amp service to handle modern electrical loads.
- Number of Outlets: The total count of new outlets, switches, and dedicated circuits for high-draw appliances.
- Accessibility: How easily technicians can route copper wiring through walls, attics, or crawl spaces. Older homes with plaster walls often require more labor.
- Permits and Inspections: Necessary fees to ensure the work meets National Electrical Code standards.
This type of project generally takes between 4 to 7 days to complete. High Voltage Electrical provides these services with transparent pricing and no hidden fees, ensuring the home is brought up to modern safety standards using high-grade copper wiring.
