About the Service

Whole-House Rewiring, Done Right

Homes with old, damaged or inadequate wiring sometimes need more than repairs. A rewire replaces branch circuits, outlets, switches and often the panel, giving a home new capacity and modern safety features.

We plan the project in phases so you know what to expect, protect floors and furniture, and coordinate with remodeling and other trades. When the walls are open is also the best time to add outlets, lighting, data and smart-home wiring.

Music City Electrical brings whole-house rewiring to homes and businesses in Nashville and across 22 Middle Tennessee cities.

Questions About Whole-House Rewiring

Still have a question?

Call 615-357-7797

How long does a rewire take?

It depends on the size of the home and whether the walls are open. Many projects take a few days to a few weeks. We give you a realistic schedule after the inspection.

Can I stay in my house during a rewire?

Often, yes. We plan the work in phases and protect your belongings, though there will be times when power to some areas is off.
