Common Electrical Wiring Issues in Peoria Homes & Businesses
Peoria homes and commercial buildings share many wiring challenges due to the desert climate, the age of construction, and past DIY fixes. Here are the most common problems we see:
Outdated Aluminum Wiring
Many Peoria homes built in the 1960s–70s still rely on aluminum wiring, which corrodes faster than copper and poses a higher fire risk. We offer safe rewiring options that meet current code.
Overloaded circuits
Older homes aren’t able to handle today’s tech-heavy loads. Frequent breaker trips, overloaded outlets, and tangled power strips are all signs that your wiring can’t keep up with the load. We can add dedicated circuits or upgrade your panel.
Damaged or exposed wires
Rodents in attics or improperly stapled wires can strip insulation, leading to shorts or shocks. We locate and replace damaged sections before they become dangerous.
Loose connections
Loose wiring inside outlets, switches, or junction boxes is a common cause of arcing. Crackling sounds, warm outlets, or flickering lights usually point to these hidden connection issues. We offer timely repairs to prevent fire hazards and keep the system stable.
DIY or unpermitted wiring
Wiring done without proper permits often lacks basic safety standards. Common problems include twisted wires wrapped with tape, missing junction boxes, or no grounding. Our electricians correct these issues and bring all wiring up to National Electrical Code and City of Peoria inspection standards.
Outdated or missing GFCI protection
Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor outlets require GFCIs by code. If your home does not meet this requirement, we can install them quickly and safely.

Our Peoria Electrical Wiring Services
Whole-Home Rewiring
We offer full rewiring for homes with old or unsafe wiring. This includes replacing old conductors, installing new junction boxes, labeling circuits, and upgrading the service panel if needed.
Commercial Wiring & Rewiring
We handle wiring for retail stores, offices, restaurants, and light industrial spaces. Whether it’s a full build-out, tenant improvement, or replacing unsafe wiring, our licensed electricians install dedicated circuits for equipment and upgrade panels for growing electrical loads.
Copper Wiring Replacement
We replace outdated or damaged copper wiring using modern materials that meet current electrical codes. Copper is reliable, long-lasting, and less prone to overheating or corrosion. Whether your system has partial degradation or needs a full upgrade, our team will handle it safely with minimal disruption.
Aluminum Wiring Replacement
Many homes in Peoria built during the ‘60s and ‘70s still have aluminum wiring. It might work, but oxidation and loose connections increase fire risks over time. We provide full replacements or approved retrofit options, using the right connectors to reduce hazards and bring everything up to today’s electrical standards.
Electrical Panel Upgrades
If your wiring is sound but your panel can't support modern loads, we offer panel upgrades to increase capacity and eliminate tripped breakers. A panel upgrade is often paired with rewiring in older homes.
Circuit Installation & Circuit Splitting
We add new circuits for appliances, home offices, EV chargers, and workshops. For overloaded outlets, we split existing circuits to balance demand and reduce fire risk.
Code Compliance & Safety Corrections
We bring your system up to current NEC and City of Peoria code. This includes adding GFCIs, fixing grounding issues, labeling breakers, correcting improper splices, and replacing open junction boxes.
Outlet & Switch Wiring
We safely wire or rewire switches, outlets, dimmers, and smart controls. This includes installing tamper-resistant outlets, GFCIs, or correcting reversed polarity issues.
