House rewiring and knob and tube replacement in Sebastopol, California
Rewiring is the least glamorous and most consequential electrical work there is. In older Sebastopol neighborhoods we still find knob and tube, cloth-insulated conductors and ungrounded two-prong outlets carrying loads nobody imagined in 1948. A rewire replaces the wiring itself rather than patching around it.

Whole House Rewiring across Sebastopol
We cover all of Sebastopol, from downtown out to the newer subdivisions on the edge of town, plus the neighboring communities of Santa Rosa, Rohnert Park and Cotati.
Sebastopol sits in Sonoma County, and the electrical work here reflects that mix: older housing stock that needs grounding, capacity and device upgrades, alongside newer construction that simply needs more circuits than it was built with. Crews route through the North Bay daily, so travel time to a call in Sebastopol is short.

Recent Sebastopol feedback
We rewired in stages so we could keep living here. They planned the access holes where the patcher could actually fix them, which I did not expect.
Ellen and Ray M.Sebastopol, CAGenerator sized properly, transfer switch installed, and they tested it under load. Ran the whole house through the last shutoff without us touching anything.
Greg H.Sebastopol, CAPanel had no room left and we wanted an EV charger. Got a straight answer, a flat number, and the whole thing done in a day. The new labels alone were worth it.
Marisol R.Sebastopol, CAWhole House Rewiring in Sebastopol — questions we get asked
Will you patch the drywall?
We cut planned, patch-ready access and coordinate closely with your patcher or painter. Ask and we will quote the rewire with patching included.
Is aluminum wiring dangerous?
Aluminum branch wiring from the 1960s and 70s is not inherently unusable, but its connections loosen and overheat over time. Remediation with listed connectors or replacement resolves it.
How much does it cost to rewire a house in Sebastopol?
Whole-home rewires in Sebastopol are priced by square footage, circuit count and access — a single-story home with an accessible attic and crawlspace costs far less than a two-story plaster home. We walk it, then give one firm number.
Do I have to move out during a rewire?
Usually not. We work in phases and keep power on to the areas you are using. Larger Sonoma County projects sometimes have a day or two where it is easier to be elsewhere.
How do I know if I have knob and tube wiring?
Look in the attic or basement for individual wires running through white ceramic knobs and tubes. Two-prong outlets throughout and a fuse box are strong supporting signs.
