Knob & Tube and Ungrounded Wiring Services

Knob & Tube wiring systems were commonly installed in buildings up until the 1940s. This type of wiring is characterized by its use of ceramic knobs to fasten wires and ceramic tubes to guide them through studs or joists. While once innovative, these systems pose several challenges today, including lack of grounding and insulation deterioration over time.

Ungrounded wiring, on the other hand, often found in older homes built before the 1960s, lacks a grounding wire, increasing the risk of shock and making it incompatible with many modern appliances that require grounding for safety.

Our clients love us

Here's some of what they had to say

This is a great company. We have been having a kitchen remodel for the past 3 months. Cory and Justin took care of our electrical system so we could be operational again. We had a problem with our stove install. Cory figured out the problem and made the repairs. I would definitely call these guys for any and all electrical needs.

Outstanding work. Built our home 25 years ago and desperately needed updated lighting. Cory listened and came up with several plans to choose from and couldn't be happier. So nice and bright, it's feels bigger! They worked with my schedule and were so great to work with me every time I wanted to add," just one more thing". Team members, Justin and Sam were fast, thorough and great clean up! They're great with dogs too!

Corey and his team did a phenomenal job! Out of everyone that came to work on my renovation, Corey was the most considerate and thoughtful. Asked all the questions, was adaptable, explained everything thoroughly, very efficient. I plan on calling them again in the future.
