North-Shore Home Rewires
Older St. George and West Brighton homes still run ungrounded, two-prong circuits. We rewire them with grounded copper and AFCI/GFCI so they're safe, pass inspection and stay insurable.

Wiring & Rewiring in Staten Island
Staten Island splits two ways: the older homes of the north shore that need their aging wiring brought up to code, and the newer construction and additions across the south shore that need fresh circuits run cleanly. Precision Power handles both — full rewires and new dedicated circuits, all to current code.

Why Staten Island Homes Need Rewiring — or New Circuits
Staten Island is really two housing stories. Up on the north shore — St. George, Stapleton, West Brighton, Port Richmond — you'll find the borough's oldest homes, many wired generations ago with ungrounded, two-prong circuits and aging branch runs. Those houses often need a genuine rewire to be safe, pass inspection and keep an insurer happy.
Down through the south and mid-island — Annadale, Eltingville, Great Kills, Tottenville — the story is newer construction and the kind of homes that grow. The work there is less about retiring old wiring and more about running new dedicated circuits cleanly: an addition off the back, a finished basement, a new bath or a kitchen that finally gets its own appliance circuits.
Whichever side of the island you're on, the standard is the same — grounded copper, AFCI/GFCI protection where it belongs, and every run installed to current code. We file the electrical permit with the DOB, coordinate the Con Edison side, and see the inspection through so you're left with wiring that's safe and signed off.

What's Different Here
Wiring That's Specific to Staten Island
A north-shore rewire and a south-shore addition are different jobs. Here's where our local experience shows up.
Additions & New Construction
Building an addition or wiring newer south-shore construction? We run fresh dedicated circuits, lighting and outlets to current code, ready for inspection from the first wall.
Finished-Basement Circuits
Finishing a basement in Great Kills or Eltingville? We run dedicated circuits for the space plus the GFCI protection below-grade rooms require — so it's safe and signs off clean.

"Our older West Brighton house was still on two-prong, ungrounded outlets and the insurer flagged it. Precision Power rewired the whole place with grounded circuits and GFCI, pulled the DOB permit, and walked us right through inspection. Clean work, straight answers."

Staten Island Wiring Questions
Wiring & Rewiring in Staten Island — FAQs
My older north-shore home has two-prong outlets — does it need a full rewire?
Two-prong outlets mean ungrounded wiring, which is common in older St. George and Stapleton homes. Whether it's a full rewire or just the affected circuits depends on the condition of the runs — we assess it on site and ground everything to current code either way.
I'm building an addition on my south-shore home — can you wire it?
Absolutely. Additions and finished basements in places like Annadale and Great Kills need fresh dedicated circuits, lighting and outlets run to code. We wire the new space and confirm your existing service can carry the added load.
Will rewiring help with my homeowners insurance on Staten Island?
Often, yes. Old, ungrounded wiring is a leading cause of electrical fires and a frequent reason insurers raise rates or decline coverage. A rewire to current code, with the Certificate of Electrical Inspection in hand, is exactly what insurers want to see.
Do you handle the permits and inspection for a Staten Island rewire?
Yes. We file the electrical permit with the NYC DOB, coordinate any Con Edison disconnect/reconnect, and see the inspection through — handing you the Certificate of Electrical Inspection the city and your insurer require.
