Professional Wiring Services in Cheyenne, WY

Aluminum wiring is most common in homes built between 1965 and 1975 in the Cheyenne area. You can check by turning off power to a circuit and removing an outlet cover plate. If the wires entering the outlet are silver-colored rather than copper-colored, you likely have aluminum branch wiring. However, the safest way to confirm is a professional inspection. We provide free assessments and can determine the wiring type, evaluate connection points, and recommend the appropriate remediation method for your home.

For a typical three-bedroom home in Cheyenne, whole-house rewiring takes three to five working days. Larger homes or homes with limited attic and crawlspace access may take up to seven days. We work one section at a time, maintaining power to the rest of your home whenever possible so you can continue living there during the process. The timeline depends on home size, number of circuits, accessibility, and the condition of the existing wiring we are replacing.

In most cases, yes. We use attic access, crawlspace runs, and strategic small wall openings to route new wiring with minimal disruption to your finished walls. Techniques like fishing wire through wall cavities and using existing pathways allow us to replace wiring without a full demolition. Some access holes are necessary, and we patch them as part of the project, though you may need to touch up paint. The result is a fully rewired home with much less disruption than most homeowners expect.

Yes. Updated wiring is a significant factor in home appraisals and inspections. Buyers and home inspectors specifically look for outdated wiring types like knob-and-tube and aluminum. A fully rewired home with a modern panel eliminates a major inspection red flag and can prevent deal-killing findings during the sale process. It also reduces your homeowner’s insurance premiums in many cases, as insurers view modern wiring as a lower fire risk. The safety benefit alone makes rewiring worthwhile, and the financial return makes it practical.

Yes. All rewiring work in Cheyenne requires an electrical permit and inspection by the local building department. We handle the entire permitting process, from application to inspection scheduling to final sign-off. Permitted work protects you legally, ensures code compliance, and keeps your homeowner’s insurance valid. Unpermitted electrical work can void insurance coverage and create serious complications when selling your home. We never skip permits, and every project we complete passes inspection.

Rewiring means replacing the existing wiring in your home with new cable, while adding circuits means installing new wiring runs to serve additional outlets, appliances, or rooms. If your existing wiring is in good condition but you need more capacity, adding circuits is sufficient. If the existing wiring is deteriorated, undersized, or a hazardous type like aluminum or knob-and-tube, rewiring is the appropriate solution. Many homes benefit from a combination approach where we add new circuits for immediate needs and plan a phased rewiring for the rest of the home over time.
