Panel and wiring questions
Can old and new wiring share a house?
Yes, as long as every circuit is properly protected and every splice sits in an accessible box.
Which rooms should I rewire first?
Kitchen and bathrooms. They carry the most load, and water is close by.
Do you charge for the quote?
No. An electrician looks at the job in person and quotes it, free.
