During a remodel, upgrading your electrical system ensures safety, efficiency, and modern functionality. Here are common electrical upgrades often included in remodeling projects:
Electrical Panel Upgrades
Older panels can struggle to handle modern power demands. Upgrading your panel increases capacity, reduces breaker trips, and ensures safe power distribution throughout the home.
Outdated wiring can pose fire hazards and limit power capacity. Rewiring replaces old, damaged wires with modern materials, ensuring reliable power and compliance with electrical codes.
New outlets and switches improve convenience and safety. Upgrades often include adding GFCI outlets in moisture-prone areas and installing tamper-resistant outlets for child safety.
Modern lighting installations, such as recessed lights and dimmer switches, enhance both functionality and ambiance while improving energy efficiency in remodeled spaces.
Adding new circuits helps prevent overloads, especially when installing high-demand appliances. Dedicated circuits ensure proper power distribution for kitchens, home offices, and entertainment areas.
Smart home upgrades, including smart lighting, thermostats, and security systems, often require specialized wiring to support automation and remote control features effectively.
Renovations are the perfect time to address outdated electrical systems for safety and efficiency. Here are signs your home may need electrical upgrades during a remodel:
Outlets feel hot, spark, or emit a burning smell during use.
Frequent breaker trips or blown fuses with regular appliance use.
Ungrounded two-prong outlets present throughout the home.
Not enough outlets, causing overuse of power strips.
Wiring is outdated, brittle, or aluminum-based.
Flickering or dimming lights when multiple devices are used.
Lack of GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, or outdoor spaces.
Appliances struggle to run properly due to insufficient power supply.
Electrical panel is outdated or lacks capacity for new additions.
Visible damage to wiring, switches, or panels during renovation work.
If your current panel lacks capacity for modern appliances or frequently trips breakers, an upgrade may be necessary. Renovations often increase power demands, making panel upgrades essential for safety and reliable power distribution.
Electrical code compliance includes installing GFCI outlets in moisture-prone areas, using AFCI protection in living spaces, and ensuring proper circuit load capacity. A licensed electrician ensures all updates meet the latest NEC standards.
Existing wiring can be reused if it meets current safety standards and isn't damaged or outdated. However, older wiring like aluminum or knob-and-tube may need replacement to ensure proper grounding and prevent hazards.
Electrical work is typically completed after demolition but before drywall installation. This allows for easy access to walls and ceilings for rewiring, outlet placement, and fixture installations.
Clear access to panels, outlets, and wiring areas is important. Remove furniture and fragile items near work zones. Inform the electrician about any structural changes to ensure proper planning for new circuits and fixture placement.
