What happens on the job
- Confirm what you need and give you the flat rate before we start

Whole-house rewire is $4,000 labor. That is labor only: materials and the permit are quoted separately after a walkthrough, so you see the full number before we start. Published guides put whole-home rewires at $8,000 to $30,000 all-in.
For troubleshooting, the $79 diagnosis finds the cause and is credited toward the fix when we do the work. Bigger jobs that are not on the menu are $90 per hour, and defined jobs are often quoted flat first.
Published cost guides for Washington show typical outlet or switch replacement at $150 to $250, light fixture replacement at $150 to $350 and ceiling fan install at $250 to $400. Our posted rates sit below those ranges. Rules on permits vary by city and job, so ask when you call.
