How We Work
We follow a structured approach to every rewiring project, keeping you informed and minimizing disruption to your home or business.
Our electrician visits your property to evaluate existing wiring, identify safety concerns, and determine the full scope of work needed before any project begins.
We outline exactly what will be rewired, how the work will be staged, and what to expect during the process — no surprises along the way.
Our team completes the rewiring using quality materials, following all applicable codes and standards to ensure a safe and lasting result.
Every circuit is tested after installation. We verify the system performs correctly and meets Georgia electrical code before considering the job complete.
Frequently asked
Common questions get answered quickly so the page feels more trustworthy before someone reaches out.
Q1
Common signs include frequently tripping breakers, flickering lights, burning smells, discolored outlets, or wiring that is more than 40 years old. A professional inspection from Matthews Lighting and Electric can give you a clear picture of your system's condition.
Q2
Some disruption is expected since electricians need access to walls and ceilings, but we plan the work thoughtfully to minimize impact. We'll walk you through what to expect before work begins so there are no surprises.
Q3
Yes. Matthews Lighting and Electric provides rewiring services for both residential and commercial clients throughout Rome, Calhoun, Lindale, and the broader Floyd County area.
Q4
In many cases, yes. Depending on your situation, we can prioritize high-risk areas first and phase the remaining work over time. We'll discuss what makes sense for your property during the initial assessment.
Q5
Rewiring projects typically require a permit and inspection to confirm code compliance. Our team handles this process and ensures all work meets Georgia's electrical code requirements before the project is closed out.
Q6
Yes. These older wiring types present real safety concerns and are frequently flagged by insurers and inspectors. We replace them with modern, code-compliant wiring materials suited to today's electrical demands.
Q7
Absolutely. Many rewiring projects benefit from a simultaneous panel upgrade to ensure your electrical system can handle updated circuits and modern loads. We can assess both needs and coordinate the work together.
Q8
We serve Rome, Calhoun, Lindale, Coosa, Cartersville, Lyerly, and other communities in the region. Contact us to confirm service availability at your specific location.
