House Rewiring in Newport, Rhode Island
Insurance companies increasingly refuse to cover knob and tube in Newport and Jamestown, Middletown. A whole house rewiring replaces every circuit with grounded modern cable, adds outlets where you actually need them, and usually pairs with a panel upgrade so the house is ready for the next fifty years.
Rhode Island has some of the oldest housing stock in the country, and Newport is no exception. Knob and tube from the 1920s, cloth-wrapped wire from the 1950s and aluminum branch wiring from the 1970s all show up in Newport homes every week. Variable Electrical Settlement Solutions rewires houses with a plan that keeps plaster and finishes intact wherever possible.
Serving The Point, Fifth Ward, Bellevue Avenue, Ocean Drive, Broadway, Historic Hill and every neighborhood in Newport.

House Rewiring FAQ — Newport, RI
How much does whole house rewiring cost in Newport?
It depends on square footage, number of circuits and how much finish work is needed. After a walkthrough of your Newport home we provide a fixed price for the full job.
Do I have to move out during a rewire?
No. We rewire room by room and keep power on to the areas we are not working in, so most families in Newport stay home.
Will you damage my plaster walls?
We fish cable through walls and ceilings wherever possible and keep openings small and in inconspicuous places. Any openings we make are patched to a paint-ready state.
Is aluminum wiring a problem?
Aluminum branch wiring expands and loosens at connections over time. It can be repaired with approved connectors or fully replaced; we will tell you honestly which is right for your home.
Recent reviews near Newport
“They rewired our 1920s colonial without destroying the plaster. We stayed in the house the whole time. Couldn't be happier with how careful the crew was.”
Tom & Angela W., Newport“Whole house generator installed before hurricane season. It's kicked on twice already and we didn't lose a thing in the freezer. Worth every penny.”
Carlos F., Newport“Smart switches throughout the house, including neutral retrofits in the old boxes. Everything works instantly with the app and the wall switches. Very knowledgeable.”
