Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about electrical wiring installation in Oakville homes.
Whole-home rewiring in Oakville typically ranges from $10,000 to $25,000 depending on size, age, and accessibility. A 1,500 sq ft bungalow with aluminum wiring remediation usually costs $12,000–$18,000. Panel upgrades alone average $2,500–$4,500. Partial rewiring for renovations starts at $3,000. We provide detailed written quotes after assessing your specific property and electrical needs.
Yes, all electrical wiring work requires permits through the Town of Oakville Building Services and ESA (Electrical Safety Authority) notification. This includes rewiring, panel upgrades, new circuits, and aluminum wiring remediation. We handle all permit applications, fee payments, ESA inspection scheduling, and final documentation as part of our comprehensive service.
Most complete rewiring projects take 4–8 working days depending on size and complexity. A typical 3-bedroom bungalow averages 5–6 days. Panel upgrades alone take 1–2 days. Larger homes or properties with finished basements may take 10–14 days. We maintain power to critical areas throughout the project so you can remain in your home comfortably.
Aluminum wiring in 1960s–1970s Oakville homes poses fire risks due to connection failures from expansion/contraction cycles, improper terminations, and oxidation. Many Glen Abbey and River Oaks homes contain aluminum wiring. Professional COPALUM remediation safely connects aluminum to copper pigtails, satisfies insurance requirements, and eliminates hazards without complete rewiring.
Most older Oakville homes with 100–150 amp panels lack capacity for Level 2 EV chargers drawing 40–60 amps. We perform load calculations to determine if your panel can support charging alongside existing loads. If undersized, we upgrade to 200-amp service providing sufficient capacity for EV charging, heat pumps, and modern appliances safely.
Yes, most Oakville homeowners remain in their properties during rewiring. We work room by room, maintain power to essentials like refrigerators and heating, and schedule brief service interruptions at convenient times typically early morning or evening. We'll discuss the detailed timeline and any temporary power limitations during your consultation.
We provide complete documentation including ESA electrical safety certificates, Town of Oakville building permit records, detailed invoices specifying all work performed, before/after photos, updated circuit panel directories, and load calculation sheets. This comprehensive package satisfies insurance requirements, supports home sales, and provides complete project records.
All our electrical wiring installations include comprehensive workmanship warranties. If any issue arises from our installation, we return to repair it at no charge. The copper wiring, panels, breakers, and devices we install are rated for decades of reliable service and meet or exceed all Ontario Electrical Safety Code requirements for long-term performance.
