Frequently Asked Questions

Is aluminum wiring dangerous?
The wire itself carries current fine, but aluminum expands, contracts and oxidizes, so connections can loosen and overheat. Proper remediation with approved connectors or replacement removes that risk.
Do you handle knob-and-tube rewiring in Vancouver?
Yes — it's one of our specialties. Many Vancouver character homes still have knob-and-tube, and we rewire and remediate it to code with documentation for your insurer.
