Rewiring & Wiring Replacement in Aurora
Rewiring Aurora's Older Homes to Modern Copper
The character homes that give Aurora Village and the streets near Yonge and Mosley their charm often still hide knob-and-tube wiring, while many homes built through the late 1960s and 70s carry aluminum branch circuits. Insurers increasingly flag both, and buyers of these heritage and estate properties frequently need the wiring addressed before a policy or a sale can close, especially with older cloth-insulated runs behind original plaster.
We replace knob-and-tube and aluminum wiring with modern copper, working room by room to limit damage to trim and finishes that matter in an older Aurora home. Every rewire is pulled under an ESA permit and inspected, and we provide the documentation your insurance company asks for. As an ECRA/ESA-licensed contractor (#7012319), we scope the work honestly and quote it by project after a free assessment, so there are no open-ended surprises.

Aurora FAQs
Wiring Replacement in Aurora — Common Questions
My insurer flagged aluminum wiring in my 1970s Aurora Highlands home, do I have to rewire the whole house?
Not always. We assess which circuits are affected and can discuss approved options, but a full or partial copper rewire with ESA inspection is the cleanest way to satisfy most Ontario insurers.
Does my insurance require knob & tube or aluminum wiring to be replaced?
Many Ontario insurers now require it, or charge more without remediation. We provide the ESA paperwork insurers typically ask for.
Do I have to rewire the whole house at once?
Not always — sometimes a targeted replacement or approved aluminum remediation is enough. We'll assess and recommend the safest, most cost-effective plan.
How disruptive is rewiring?
We plan the least-invasive route and keep drywall cuts to a minimum. We'll explain exactly what to expect before we start.
Is aluminum wiring dangerous?
The wiring itself is less the issue than the connections, which can loosen and overheat. Proper replacement or approved remediation makes it safe.
