Home Rewiring Service for Galloway, OH Homeowners
Galloway sits on the west side of Franklin County, and a significant number of homes in the area were built between the late 1960s and the mid-1980s. Many of those properties have never had their original wiring touched, and the electrical systems inside them were simply not built to handle the demands of a modern household.
Electric Medic provides professional home rewiring service for homeowners throughout Galloway and the surrounding Columbus area. Our licensed electricians have worked on homes ranging from compact ranches near Alkire Road to larger two-story properties closer to the Hilliard and Grove City borders. We bring local knowledge, proper permits, and clean workmanship to every rewiring project we take on.
What’s Included in Our Home Rewiring Service
When you hire Electric Medic for rewiring, you are getting a complete electrical overhaul, not just a patch job. We replace old wiring, update your outlets and switches, and make sure everything connects properly to a safe, code-compliant panel.
Replacing Outdated or Unsafe Wiring
Our electricians remove knob-and-tube, aluminum branch circuit wiring, or any other wiring that no longer meets current Ohio Electrical Code. We run new copper wiring through your walls, attic, and crawlspace using methods that minimize damage to drywall and finishes. Every new wire run is labeled, organized, and installed with long-term reliability in mind.
Outlet, Switch, and Junction Box Updates
New wiring means new devices throughout the home. We install updated outlets, switches, and covered junction boxes as part of the rewiring process, and we add GFCI outlet installation in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas as required by code. All devices are matched to the wire gauge and load requirements of their circuits.
Panel-Ready Connections and Final Testing
Once all new wiring is run, our electricians connect the circuits to your breaker panel and test every outlet, switch, and fixture before considering the job complete. If your existing panel is too small or outdated to support the new wiring, we can coordinate an electric panel upgrade and replacement at the same time. You end up with a fully integrated electrical system that is ready for everyday use.

Signs Galloway Homeowners Need Home Rewiring
Electrical problems rarely announce themselves loudly until something goes wrong. Galloway homeowners in older neighborhoods often deal with warning signs that are easy to brush off but signal that the wiring inside the walls needs professional attention.
Flickering Lights or Frequently Tripping Breakers
If your lights dim when you run the microwave or your breakers trip on a regular basis, the wiring in your home may not be keeping up with your electrical load. This is especially common in Galloway homes built before 1985 that still have the original panel and wiring. Ignoring these signs can lead to overheating inside the walls and, in the worst cases, an electrical fire.
Aluminum or Knob-and-Tube Wiring in Older Homes
Homes in western Franklin County built before 1972 sometimes contain knob-and-tube wiring, and homes built through the late 1970s may have aluminum branch circuit wiring. Both types degrade over time, and aluminum wiring in particular creates a fire risk at connection points as it expands and contracts with temperature changes. Ohio winters and humid summers put stress on these connections year after year.
Planning a Renovation or Adding Major Appliances
If you are finishing a basement, adding an EV charger, or upgrading to a larger HVAC system, your existing wiring may not support the added load. Pairing a rewiring project with a renovation is often the most cost-effective approach since walls are already open. Electric Medic also installs EV charger installation and can tie those circuits into a rewired system for a clean, future-ready setup.
Do not wait for a tripped breaker or a burning smell to take action. The sooner a licensed electrician evaluates your wiring, the better your options will be.
Our Home Rewiring Service Process for Galloway Homes
Schedule Your Consultation
Reach out by phone or through our website and we will set up a convenient time to visit your Galloway home. Our electrician arrives on time, listens to what you have been experiencing, and reviews the age and history of your home’s electrical system. There is no cost and no obligation to the initial visit.
Assess Your Home’s Existing Electrical System
We inspect your panel, examine visible wiring in the attic, basement, and crawlspace, and test outlets and circuits throughout the home. For homes near older Galloway corridors where wiring has not been touched since original construction, this assessment often reveals more than the homeowner expected. You receive a clear written report and a detailed quote before any work begins.
Execute the Rewiring with Minimal Disruption
Once permits are pulled through Franklin County, our crew gets to work running new wiring, installing updated devices, and keeping your home as livable as possible throughout the process. We patch drywall access points, clean up at the end of each workday, and keep you informed about progress and next steps. Most Galloway homes are completed within three to five business days.
Conduct the Final Inspection and Walkthrough
After all wiring is connected and tested, the Franklin County inspector reviews the work and signs off on the permit. We then walk you through every circuit, outlet, and switch so you understand exactly what was done and how the system works. You leave the project with a complete electrical system that meets current code and is built to last for decades. For added protection, ask us about adding whole house surge protection at the same time.
