Common Questions

Does knob and tube wiring have to be removed?

In most Ontario insurance cases — yes. Many providers will not insure homes with active knob and tube systems unless replacement work is completed by licensed electricians.

Can you rewire only part of the house?

Absolutely. Partial rewire Toronto projects are common for homeowners preparing for inspection or renovating one floor at a time.

Do you provide ESA documentation?

Yes. Every qualifying rewiring project includes ESA-compliant work and documentation for insurance purposes.
