Old Wiring Is a Risk You Cannot See
The wiring inside the walls of your home is easy to ignore because you cannot see it. But if your home was built before the 1970s, there is a real possibility that the wiring behind those walls no longer meets current safety standards and may be creating a fire or shock hazard that gets worse over time.
Your home may need rewiring if:
It was built before 1970 and has never been rewired
You have knob-and-tube wiring, which is identifiable as ceramic knobs and tubes running through framing in the attic or basement
Your home has aluminum branch circuit wiring, common in homes built from the mid-1960s through the 1970s
You have cloth-insulated wiring that has become brittle or cracked
You frequently experience tripped breakers, flickering lights, or outlets that do not work
Your homeowner's insurance has flagged the wiring or raised your rates because of it
You are planning a major renovation and want to bring the electrical system up to current standards at the same time
A home inspector or electrician has identified wiring concerns
How We Approach a Whole Home Rewiring
Step one | We Assess What Is There We inspect the existing wiring
the panel, and the outlets and switches throughout the home. We identify what needs to be replaced, what can remain, and what the full scope of the project will involve.
Step two | We Give You a Complete Scope and Price Rewiring is a significant project
We give you a thorough explanation of what the work involves, what disruption to expect, and a complete upfront price before any work begins.
Step three | We Complete the Rewiring to Current Code We run new copper wiring throughout the home
install new outlets, switches, and fixtures as needed, connect to a properly sized panel, and complete all required inspections. We work with you to minimize disruption to the home during the process.
Whole home rewiring is one of the more involved electrical projects we undertake
but it is also one of the most important. Homes in Tulsa's older established neighborhoods, including many of the bungalows and ranch homes in Midtown, the Brady Arts District, Brookside, and East Tulsa, were built with wiring systems that were appropriate for their time but were not designed to carry modern electrical loads or meet today's safety standards. A properly executed rewiring replaces the hidden risk with a system that is safe, code-compliant, and built to last

Half Moon Plumbing & Electric has been rewiring homes for residential customers throughout Tulsa and the surrounding area since 2007. Older home rewiring requires more than just pulling new wire. It requires an electrician who understands how older homes were built, how to work carefully within existing structures, and how to bring a decades-old electrical system into full compliance with current code without unnecessary damage to the home. We do this work correctly, with permits, inspections, and the attention to detail it requires.

Tulsa's older residential neighborhoods contain a significant number of homes that have never been rewired since original construction. Many of the craftsman bungalows, Tudor revivals, and ranch-style homes in Midtown Tulsa, Brookside, the Brady Arts District, and East Tulsa were built in the 1920s through 1960s and still contain their original wiring. Knob-and-tube wiring, which is common in pre-1940s construction, lacks a ground conductor and was not designed for the electrical loads of modern households. Aluminum branch circuit wiring, installed widely in the late 1960s and 1970s in homes throughout Tulsa and surrounding communities as a lower-cost alternative to copper, expands and contracts differently than copper, leading to loose connections and an elevated fire risk over time.

Common Questions
Whole Home Rewiring Upgrade FAQ
-
Knob-and-tube wiring is identifiable by the ceramic knobs and tubes used to route and support the wires through the framing. It is most visible in unfinished attics, basements, and crawl spaces. If your home was built before 1940 and has never been rewired, there is a strong likelihood it still has knob-and-tube wiring. We can confirm it during an assessment.
-
Aluminum branch circuit wiring, used in many homes built from the mid-1960s through the 1970s, poses an elevated fire risk if the connections have not been properly maintained or updated. The wire itself is not inherently dangerous, but it requires specific connection methods and devices that are different from copper, and in many older homes those connections were not made correctly or have loosened over time. We can assess the condition of aluminum wiring in your home and give you an honest recommendation.
-
Not necessarily. Depending on the home's construction and the type of wiring being replaced, experienced electricians can often fish new wiring through walls with minimal drywall work. We will be honest with you about what the work involves for your specific home during the scoping process.
-
The timeline depends on the size of the home and the complexity of the existing wiring. Most residential rewiring projects take several days to a week. We will give you a clear project timeline during the consultation.
-
In many cases, yes, positively. Homes with knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring often carry higher insurance premiums or have coverage limitations due to the wiring. Completing a rewiring can result in lower premiums and removal of coverage restrictions. We recommend checking with your insurer.
-
Yes. In many cases a panel upgrade and an EV charger installation are done together in a single visit, which is more efficient than scheduling them separately. We can quote both at the same time.
