Aluminum wiring repair in Mount Tabor
There are two accepted fixes. One is to rewire with copper. The other is to treat every connection in the house with a connector made for joining aluminum to copper, then fit new devices on short copper leads. We check each outlet, switch, fixture and junction box, because one missed connection defeats the purpose.
People in Mount Tabor ask for this in different ways: aluminum wiring remediation, aluminum to copper pigtailing and aluminum wiring replacement, or simply “aluminum wiring repair near me”. It is all work we do, and one call to (888) 633-7804 covers it.
