## FAQ
Q: How much does it cost to rewire a house in Sacramento?
A: Whole-house rewiring in Sacramento costs $8,000–$25,000 depending on home size, accessibility, and whether walls need to be opened. A typical 1,500 sq ft home averages $10,000–$15,000. Homes with easy attic/crawlspace access cost less than those requiring extensive wall work.

Q: How long does rewiring take?
A: A full rewire takes 5–10 days for an average Sacramento home. You can typically remain in the home during the work, though power to certain areas will be off at times. Drywall patching and painting after the electrical work adds 1–3 days.

Q: Does my insurance require rewiring?
A: Many insurers will not cover homes with knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring, or they charge significantly higher premiums. If you're having trouble getting homeowners insurance, rewiring often resolves the issue immediately.

Q: Is aluminum wiring dangerous?
A: Aluminum wiring (common in 1960s-70s Sacramento homes) isn't inherently dangerous but creates fire risk at connections where aluminum meets copper. Connections can overheat due to aluminum's expansion properties. Options include full rewire or the less expensive COPALUM crimp repair on all connections.
