Knob and Tube Wiring Removal in Toronto

Heritage homes have a charm of their own but if not well-maintained and looked after, it can become a real problem for the homeowner. If your home was built before the 1950s you’ll need to consider the type of wiring system it has. Most houses built from the 1800s to the 1950s came with the knob and tube wiring system. Times were different then and now, the modern technological needs of a family can put a strain on the old wiring systems making it unsafe if not rewired, replaced or removed over time.

Replacing Knob & Tube Wiring Systems

The knob and tube wiring systems can last a long time but one of the main problems that you as a homeowner can encounter is the wear and tear that happens over time due to excess use, any kind of damage, or worn out insulation. This can cause the wiring to break off leaving it bare and exposed.

Bare wires can cause house fires and that can result in far worse damages which no homeowner wants. Replacing or repairing the knob and tube wiring system is not expensive and can also be done fairly quickly with minimal damages, if done by the right electrical service providers. Regular and timely replacement and rewiring will maintain the integrity and most of all, the value of your home.

While it’s not illegal to have K&T wiring, having it may constitute a breach of regulations that govern how commercial premises operate with respect to building safety.

Most K&T wiring systems were fitted way back in the 1930s, so it’s highly unlikely it’s still safe, particularly given how modern businesses use far more electricity than offices did nearly a century ago!
