Rewiring in Bonita, CA.
Rewiring for Bonita homes, done by licensed San Diego County technicians. Old wiring is a real fire risk and an insurance problem. We rewire homes in phases, circuit by circuit, room by room, using fish tape, attic and crawlspace runs, and minimal-cut wall openings to keep the drywall repairs small.
Why is rewiring different in South County San Diego?
South County aluminum branch wiring (1965-1973 construction) is common. We do full replacement for high-load circuits and COPALUM crimp connections for the rest, per UL and NEC guidance.
