Electrical Upgrades for Homes in Capitol Hill, Seattle

Capitol Hill is home to many of Seattle's historic houses, craftsman homes, and early twentieth-century residences that were built long before today's electrical demands existed. Many of these homes still rely on knob and tube wiring, outdated fuse boxes, or undersized electrical panels that do not support modern appliances, home offices, electric vehicles, and remodeling projects.
