Whole House Rewiring in Cordova, NM

What a house rewiring includes

Rewiring adobe and plaster homes around Cordova takes patience. We fish wire through attics, crawl spaces, and chases wherever we can, and use surface raceway where solid walls leave no other route. Whole house rewiring cost in Cordova depends on square footage, wall construction, access, and how many circuits and devices you want when it is done.

• New grounded cable to every outlet, switch, and light
• New outlets, switches, and cover plates
• GFCI and AFCI protection where required
• Dedicated circuits for kitchen, laundry, and cooling
• Hardwired smoke and carbon monoxide alarms
• A new panel sized for the new circuits, if needed
• Removal or abandonment of old wiring
• Permits, rough-in, and final inspections

Signs your home may need rewiring

• Two-prong outlets and no ground wires
• Cloth-covered, knob and tube, or aluminum wiring
• Frequent tripped breakers or blown fuses
• Discolored outlets or a persistent burning smell
• Too few outlets and extension cords everywhere

Why Cordova properties call a local electrician

At elevation, Cordova sees cold winters, heavy snow on service lines, and lightning in the summer. Space heaters, heat tape, and well pumps work hard here, and many older homes were wired long before those loads existed.

Most properties in Rio Arriba County get their electricity from Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative, Kit Carson Electric Cooperative, or Northern Rio Arriba Electric Cooperative. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.

Our house rewiring covers all of Cordova, along with neighboring Chimayo, Truchas, Santa Cruz, and Trampas.
