Home rewiring will protect your home from possible electrical hazards caused by old or faulty wiring and bad electrical connections. Homes built prior to 1980 were not wired for the electrical demand that our current lifestyles requires. While appliances are becoming more efficient, we are adding them in numbers beyond the capability of older home’s electrical systems. Computer, home entertainment systems and other high tech electronics are putting more strain on home electrical systems.
Warning Signs Your Home Needs Rewiring
If you’re thinking about rewiring your house you’re probably doing so because you’ve experienced the warning signs of potential electrical problems, including:
- Frequent blown fuses or tripped breakers
- Dimming or flickering lights
- Hot or discolored switch plates, cords, or plugs
- Light bulbs that frequently burn out
- Buzzing or sizzling sounds
- A burning smell
- Arcs or sparks from an outlet when you plug or unplug a cord
- Electrical shock when you plug in or touch a cord
The smartest thing you can do for the safety of your family and the care of your home is to pay attention to the warning signs and correct any problems before a disaster strikes. Clover Electric is here to help. We offer wiring and rewiring services for your entire home as well as hot tubs and pools.

Room By Room Rewire©
Clover Electric’s Room by Room Rewire© option has the homeowners and electrician working closely together to determine the most important or critical rewiring needs. For example, a homeowner may have flickering lights or breaker tripping issues in the kitchen when cooking, using the microwave or running the garbage disposal. For this homeowner, Clover Electric would begin by rewiring the kitchen. While the need to rewire the bedrooms and bathrooms may still be there, it’s not as immediate and can be put on a schedule to accommodate the homeowner’s use needs and budget. It makes sense! Only do what NEEDS to be done, when it needs to be done. The Room by Room Rewire© option gives you the flexibility to do a rewire project on your timeline while meeting the needs of your home’s electrical system.
How Much Does It Cost To Rewire A House?
The cost will depend on the size of the home, condition of existing electrical system and many other factors. Clover Electric will evaluate your home to determine what needs to be done and what can be left in place for the new wiring system. Our goal is to ONLY do what NEEDS to be done.

Keep in mind, every system is unique. The pricing you see online may include top of the line materials or the cheapest available. The price may or may not include a professional electrician.
