WHY REWIRE YOUR KNOB & TUBE WIRING?
Knob and tube wiring was once the industry standard in residential homes across Toronto. But time takes its toll. Many of these systems are now:
- Deteriorated and unsafe due to cracked insulation, corrosion, or rodent damage
- Lacking a ground wire, increasing the risk of shock
- Non-compliant with insurance and building codes
- Unable to support modern appliances and devices
Rewiring eliminates these risks and provides a safe, reliable foundation for your home’s electrical needs.

Knob and tube rewiring is the process of removing outdated electrical wiring systems that use ceramic knobs and tubes to run wires through walls and ceilings. These systems were common in homes built before the 1950s and lack grounding, making them a safety hazard in modern homes. Rewiring replaces these old systems with safe, grounded copper wiring.
