Massachusetts has some of the oldest housing in the country, and plenty of Mill River homes are still carrying current on wire installed before the war. OSB rewires houses in stages so you keep living in yours while the work runs.
“The quote they gave me on the phone was the number on the invoice. That is apparently rare and it shouldn't be.”
“Sold our house and the buyer's inspector flagged eight electrical items. OSB fixed all of them in one visit and wrote it up so we could close on time.”
“Two-prong outlets all through a 1920s house. They grounded what could be grounded and GFCI-protected the rest, then labelled everything.”
Rewiring is priced by circuit count, square footage and access. A small Mill River home may be a five-figure project; a partial rewire of a kitchen and bath is a fraction of that. We walk the house and quote flat.
Almost never. We work zone by zone so you keep power, heat and a working kitchen through the job.
Existing knob-and-tube isn't automatically illegal, but it can't be extended, it has no ground, and insurers increasingly won't write a policy over it. That's why most Mill River owners replace it.
Less than you expect. We fish cable through bays, closets and chases and cut small, patchable access points rather than opening whole walls.
Yes. Partial rewires are extremely common in Mill River — kitchens, bathrooms and second floors are the usual starting points.
