Knob and Tube Rewire Holes! Holes! Holes!

[michaelalanlee]

This is all rather simplistic. I hope there is a follow up video with some meat to it as the narrator suggested. Old houses have knob and tube wiring, that is a given. If this video is targeted at the naive, then it ought to do more than worry about the way the plaster will look. It is not an issue of "code" but a fundamental issue of safety. This seems well intentioned, but I regret that I had to give it a "dislike" because of the lack of substantive content.

How much would a full rewire like this cost? Did you have to change out the service panel as well to update to circuit breakers?

@itsdonenow Almost any complete rewire of a house is around $10,000. But in addition to having a complete rewire done ask your electrician about having dediciated circuits for each appliance and a whole house surge protector
