Electrical Wiring & Rewiring in Asheville
While your panel might be the heart and brain of your electrical system, the hundreds or even thousands of feet of wiring that run throughout your home are the veins and nerves that make everything happen. Without wiring running throughout your home, your lights, switches, appliances, outlets, and all devices and features that depend on electricity wouldn’t work properly.

Wiring Repairs
Wiring issues are rare, but they can happen as wires age. Over time and with exposure to electrical current, wires can slowly corrode and fall apart. When they do, they run the risk of damaging other electrical components by causing a short, and they can even start a fire if they get too hot. At iFix Electric & Plumbing, we offer wiring repairs that get rid of these problems for a safer and more reliable wiring grid.
We can repair wiring issues, such as:
- Shorts
- Improper grounding
- Overloaded wires
- Unshielded or poorly shielded wiring
- Pinched wires
- Burnt or damaged wires
Electrical Remodels
If the wiring in your home is no longer viable, it may be time for a full electrical remodel. Running new wiring not only vastly improves safety and efficiency but can also prevent a potentially serious hazard such as an electrical fire. If your wiring is more than 40 years old and you are frequently experiencing issues related to faulty wiring, reach out to our team as soon as possible to learn if rewiring may be the right option.
When we look at house rewiring Asheville homeowners are considering, we walk you through what to expect room by room so you understand how walls may be opened, how long sections of your home may be without power, and what options you have for upgrading outlets, lighting, and circuits at the same time. We also coordinate around your schedule to reduce disruption and keep you informed about permitting and inspection steps that apply under local building codes in Asheville and surrounding communities.
Wiring Inspections
Are you seeing signs of a problem in your electrical system? Has your home recently experienced a major electrical outage, such as a power surge caused by the electrical grid or a major storm? Schedule an electrical inspection before powering up again. This inspection could help prevent a major wiring problem from impacting your home by starting a fire or further damaging your electrical system. At iFix Electric & Plumbing, our crew offers comprehensive electrical inspections that can identify these issues so they can be rectified as soon as possible.
During an inspection, we evaluate the overall condition of your wiring, check for outdated materials, and look for warning signs like overheating, discoloration, or loose connections that could lead to failure. Many homes in the Asheville area have additions or DIY changes that were never fully checked, so an inspection is a smart way to make sure your system is safe before you add new appliances, electric vehicle chargers, or heating and cooling equipment.
Signs You May Need Wiring Or Rewiring
Many homeowners are not sure when it is time to call a professional about the wiring in their home, especially if everything seems to be working most of the time. Knowing the common warning signs can help you address issues early, before they turn into bigger problems or safety hazards. We encourage you to pay attention to how your lights, outlets, and breakers behave and to trust your instincts if something seems off.
Common indicators include frequently tripping breakers, lights that dim or flicker when larger appliances start, outlets that feel warm to the touch, or a burning or metallic odor near switches or fixtures. In older homes around Asheville, you might also notice a lack of grounded outlets, two-prong receptacles, or visible cloth-covered wiring in basements and attics, all of which can point to systems that are past their intended service life. If you see discoloration on outlet covers or hear buzzing from electrical panels, those are also signs that a professional should evaluate your system.
If you are planning a renovation, finishing a basement, or adding major new loads like a hot tub or EV charger, that is also a good time to assess the type of electrical wiring Asheville homes need to safely support modern demands. By reviewing your current wiring capacity before you begin a project, we can recommend upgrades that support your plans, reduce the chance of nuisance tripping, and improve safety for your family in the long term.
