A full rewire in a 1920s Winter Park bungalow is a plaster job as much as an electrical one. That is the honest reason it costs more here than across town.
Partial rewires and single problem zones sit at the low end. A full rewire on a 1940s bungalow with plaster walls is the top of the range — wall construction moves this number more than square footage does.
If you could swap the city name out of this page and it would still be accurate, it should not exist. Here is what actually changes here.
Plaster and lath does not open and close like drywall. We plan access points to minimise openings, and we patch and texture what we open rather than handing you a hole and a business card.
We stage the work so you keep power in most of the house most of the time. Full rewires here run one to two weeks depending on wall construction.
Anything visible from the street can trigger additional review. Discovering that mid-project costs weeks, so we flag it at the estimate.
A new panel as part of the rewire means coordinating the meter with the City of Winter Park, not Duke or OUC. Different process, and we do it regularly.
Same ranges we publish everywhere, because the work does not cost more just because of the zip code. You get an exact number at the free estimate.

"Grant wired our new kitchen project. We have used him two other times and plan on using him with our next project."
"…In Phaze sent 3 people for the job, which they completed in 1 day, even vacuuming up afterwards."
"After getting the run around from other electricians I came across In Phase. Wish I found them first."
"Unlike some of their competitors, they don't try to up-sell products that aren't strictly necessary."
Mostly, yes. We cut strategically and patch what we open. Plaster and masonry take more openings than drywall, which is why they cost more.
Rarely. We stage the work so you keep power in most of the house most of the time.
Typically one to two weeks depending on size, wall construction and inspection scheduling.
Patch and texture, yes. We close what we open — that promise came directly from customer feedback.
Carriers increasingly ask about knob-and-tube and cloth wiring. Documentation of remediation often satisfies them without a full rewire.
Yes, and for a lot of families that is the right call. We sequence it so each phase is complete and inspected on its own.
Free estimate. If you do not need the work, we will tell you — which is why people in Winter Park call us back years later.
