Whole-house rewiring in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn brings Brooklyn House Rewiring into some of the borough's most tightly built residential blocks. The attached brick homes and multi-family houses here were often built with aluminum branch wiring and 100-amp panels that see heavy daily use. We remediate or replace the aluminum, rewire circuits in grounded copper, and upgrade services to 200 amps. Bensonhurst homeowners and landlords count on us for wiring that is safe, durable, and passes inspection.
Bensonhurst is one of Brooklyn's densest residential neighborhoods, packed with attached brick row houses, two- and three-family homes, and walk-up buildings along 18th Avenue and 86th Street. Many of these mid-century homes were wired with aluminum branch circuits and fitted with 100-amp panels that are now undersized and a fire risk at the connections. The volume of multi-family housing means aluminum remediation and panel upgrades that pass inspection are constant work here.
The mid-century homes here often have aluminum branch wiring that loosens and overheats at outlets and switches. We remediate the connections with listed CO/ALR devices or copper pigtails, or replace the aluminum with copper where the risk is higher. A master electrician inspects the wiring first and recommends the approach that makes the home safe.
With so many two- and three-family homes here, landlords need wiring that passes inspection and holds up through tenant turnover. We rewire in grounded copper, separate and label each unit's circuits, and upgrade to properly sized panels. The work is permitted and inspected so it satisfies both the code and a buyer or insurer down the line.
The 100-amp services common in Bensonhurst fall short once modern appliances and multiple units draw at once. We upgrade the service entrance and install 200-amp breaker panels with room for dedicated circuits and GFCI and AFCI protection. Every upgrade is permitted and scheduled for inspection.
We also rewire homes in nearby Dyker Heights. Call Brooklyn House Rewiring at (347) 252-8522 for whole-house rewiring & electrical across Brooklyn.
