Whole House Rewiring in South Lake Tahoe, CA
Older homes in South Lake Tahoe were wired for lamps and a radio, not for air conditioning, home offices and electric cars. When the wiring is brittle, undersized, ungrounded or spliced by decades of handymen, a whole house rewire is the lasting fix. Unique Electrical Services rewires homes in South Lake Tahoe, CA with modern copper circuits and as little wall damage as possible.
