A whole-house rewire by PSL Electric is a major safety upgrade for older properties. We systematically replace outdated and potentially hazardous knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring with modern, code-compliant copper wiring throughout your home. This process includes upgrading your electrical panel to handle increased demand, installing new grounded outlets and switches, and ensuring all circuits are properly protected. It resolves flickering lights, overloaded circuits, and provides a safe foundation for modern appliances and devices, bringing your home up to current Oakland and California safety standards.

It's possible. Oakland's terrain and soil shifts can put stress on underground service cables, leading to damage that causes flickering lights, partial power loss, or frequent breaker trips. PSL Electric has extensive experience diagnosing these local issues. We can perform tests to determine if the problem originates from your home's internal wiring or the underground service line from the utility pole. If it's an external cable issue, we can coordinate with the local utility and handle the repair or replacement of the line on your property, restoring stable and safe power to your home.

Absolutely. Our expertise includes low-voltage wiring for smart home technology. Whether you're adding smart switches, lighting controls, security systems, or Cat 6 data networking, we ensure these systems are properly integrated with your home's electrical infrastructure. We can install dedicated circuits for hubs, wire for in-wall control panels, and set up robust Wi-Fi access points to prevent malfunctions. For existing setups with issues, we troubleshoot conflicts between devices and electrical wiring to create a reliable, seamless smart home experience tailored to your Oakland residence.
