Q: How much will it cost to rewire my home? John C., Staten Island, New York. A: This is a question we get frequently. The answer, as it is so often with major home projects, is that thereâs a big potential cost range. You can expect to pay $8,000 to $15,000 to rewire a 1,500- to 3,000-square-foot home. The precise cost will depend on the size and age of your house, the ease with which an electrician can access old wiring, and the quirks that abound in older homes.
1 Copper wire is increasingly expensive, so just the materials alone for rewiring a typical home can start around $400-$1,000 and might run $1,500-$3,000 or more for an extensive upgrade (lots of outlets, light fixtures) in a larger home. You might want to rent a self-storage unit for anywhere from $40-$230 a month to house your valuable furniture and decorations during the rewiring process, which can be quite dusty and invasive.
