Consumer Alert

Modernizing Fort Lauderdale Homes: Safe Electrical Updates

Electrical issues in Fort Lauderdale are often exacerbated by Broward County's high humidity and salt-air environment. Ignoring these warning signs can lead to property damage or safety hazards.

Home Built Before 1970

Homes from this era often have cloth-covered wiring with degraded insulation, creating fire hazards that can't be seen without opening walls.

Aluminum Wiring Present

Aluminum wiring installed in the 1960s-70s has a documented fire risk due to oxidation and loose connections at terminals. Remediation is strongly recommended.

Frequent Breaker Trips

Constantly tripping breakers indicate circuits overloaded beyond safe capacity—often because wiring can't handle modern electrical demands.

Flickering or Dimming Lights

Lights that flicker when appliances turn on indicate insufficient circuit capacity or deteriorating connections somewhere in your wiring.

Too Few Outlets

Using extension cords and power strips everywhere indicates your home lacks adequate outlets—a common sign of outdated wiring design.

Two-Prong Ungrounded Outlets

If most of your outlets have only two slots (no ground), your wiring lacks grounding protection—a safety concern that requires updating.

How It Works

How Our Fort Lauderdale Electrical Wiring Updates & Rewiring Process Works

1

Comprehensive Assessment

We examine your existing wiring, panel capacity, and outlet layout to determine whether you need complete rewiring, targeted updates, or aluminum remediation.

2

Custom Rewiring Plan

Based on your needs and budget, we develop a detailed plan covering circuit layout, outlet placement, and any panel upgrades required to support the new wiring.

3

Permit Application

Rewiring requires electrical permits. We handle all permit applications and ensure the work plan meets current Florida electrical code requirements.

4

Professional Installation

Our electricians install new wiring using techniques that minimize wall damage. When possible, we route through attics and crawl spaces to avoid unnecessary drywall cuts.

5

Inspection & Completion

We coordinate the required inspection, ensure all connections are properly made and protected, and provide documentation of the completed work.

Why It Matters

Electrical Wiring Updates & Rewiring Benefits for Fort Lauderdale Homeowners

Eliminate Hidden Fire Hazards

Degraded wiring insulation and loose connections cause thousands of home fires annually. New wiring eliminates these invisible threats behind your walls.

Support Modern Power Demands

Today's electronics, appliances, and HVAC systems demand more power than 1970s wiring was designed to provide. Updated wiring handles modern loads safely.

Increase Home Value

Updated electrical wiring is a significant selling point. Buyers and home inspectors flag outdated wiring, while modernized systems add value and ease sales.

Insurance Acceptance

Some insurers won't cover homes with aluminum wiring or refuse claims where outdated electrical caused damage. Updated wiring removes these coverage concerns.

Common Questions

Common Electrical Wiring Updates & Rewiring Questions from Fort Lauderdale Homeowners

Key indicators include: home built before 1970 (especially with original wiring), aluminum wiring present, cloth-covered wiring visible in attic, frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, two-prong outlets throughout, or warm outlets/switches. We offer assessments to evaluate your wiring condition and recommend appropriate action.
Complete rewiring typically takes 3-5 days for an average home, depending on size, accessibility, and complexity. We can often work room-by-room to minimize disruption, restoring power to each area as it's completed rather than leaving the whole house without power.
Some wall access is usually necessary, but we minimize this using techniques that route wires through attics, crawl spaces, and existing pathways. When wall cuts are needed, we make them strategically and can recommend drywall repair resources. The safety benefits far outweigh minor repair needs.
Aluminum wiring itself isn't inherently dangerous, but its connections to outlets, switches, and breakers develop problems over time. Aluminum oxidizes, expands differently than copper, and requires specific connectors. The documented fire risk comes from these connection points. Remediation options include complete replacement or installing approved aluminum-to-copper connectors (COPALUM or AlumiConn).
Yes. Rewiring is significant electrical work requiring permits from your local building department. Permits ensure work is inspected for safety and creates documentation important for insurance and home sales. Solomon Electric handles all permitting and inspection coordination.
Absolutely—renovations are the ideal time for rewiring. With walls already open, we can install new wiring with minimal additional disruption or cost. We coordinate with contractors to ensure electrical work fits the renovation timeline and meets your updated needs.

Whole-Home Rewiring Services in Fort Lauderdale and Broward County SOLVING LOCAL ELECTRICAL CHALLENGES IN FORT LAUDERDALE

Outdated electrical wiring is a ticking clock. Thousands of home fires originate from degraded wiring, loose connections, and overloaded circuits hidden inside walls. Solomon Electric provides comprehensive rewiring services throughout Broward, Broward, and Palm Beach counties—bringing older homes up to modern safety standards with new copper wiring, properly sized circuits, and code-compliant installations. We use hospital-grade and commercial-grade outlets where durability matters. For homes with children, we install tamper-resistant receptacles as required by current NEC code. All outlets are properly grounded and tested before we leave.

Aluminum Wiring Remediation in Fort Lauderdale Homes SOLVING LOCAL ELECTRICAL CHALLENGES IN FORT LAUDERDALE

Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s often contain aluminum wiring—a documented fire hazard at connection points. Insurance companies increasingly require remediation or refuse coverage entirely. Solomon Electric offers both complete aluminum-to-copper rewiring and connection remediation using CPSC-approved COPALUM or AlumiConn connectors when full replacement isn't practical. Fort Lauderdale and Broward County's salt air and humidity cause accelerated corrosion in outdoor and garage outlets. We use corrosion-resistant stainless steel or PVC covers and weather-rated outlets designed for coastal environments.

Rewiring for Fort Lauderdale Home Renovations SOLVING LOCAL ELECTRICAL CHALLENGES IN FORT LAUDERDALE

Planning a kitchen remodel, bathroom update, or home addition? Renovation is the ideal time for rewiring—walls are already open, and you can design electrical to serve modern needs. We coordinate with contractors to install new circuits, add outlets, and upgrade capacity as part of your renovation project. Older Fort Lauderdale and Broward County homes often have ungrounded two-prong outlets, aluminum wiring connections, or backstabbed wires—all of which are fire hazards. Our electricians properly diagnose the condition and provide code-compliant solutions.
