Whole-House Rewire and 200 Amp Service Upgrade in Cleveland TX

This one was a full electrical overhaul. The home was built in the early 1970s and had never had its wiring updated - which meant no ground wires throughout the entire house. That's a serious safety issue, and it's more common than most people think in homes from that era.

We started from the ground up. All the old wiring got pulled and replaced, and we swapped out the original 100 amp service for a new 200 amp setup. You can see the new service entrance mast installed clean on the roofline, along with the upgraded panel mounted on the exterior brick wall. Everything was brought up to current code.

Inside the house, the work touched every room. Our crew was running new outlets and switches throughout - two guys working side by side in each room to keep things moving. We also handled new recessed light fixture installations in the kitchen and bathroom, which is a big upgrade over the old wiring that was in place before.

The 100-to-200 amp upgrade is worth calling out specifically. Older homes were built at a time when households ran a fraction of the electrical load they do today. HVAC systems, modern appliances, EV chargers - none of that was part of the picture in 1972. Bumping up to 200 amps gives this home the capacity to handle all of it safely.

No ground wires in a home means every outlet is a potential hazard - especially for electronics and appliances. It also means your home may not pass inspection if you're trying to sell. Getting everything rewired and up to code isn't just about safety, it's about protecting the value of the home long-term.
