Why don't they enforce the boomers to change these, it's illegal

We got quotes of $3.5K-$5.5K to upgrade our panel from 100A to 200A.

I just pair $3500 to have a licensed electrician install 4 GCFI in the kitchen, check and correct every receptacle and switch in the house, ground the panel, clean up unsheathed wires entering it, ensheath several areas where bundles of cords were entering receptacles, and install several junction boxes where there was open wiring or messy spray foam. Different estimate for the same work was $15K.

We just added a large subpanel for a basement remodel - the added subpanel cost $2,000 all in.

Has anyone expanded the breaker box and know how much that runs? We have 200 amps but are out of breakers.

We did a heavy up on our 1940s house + added a few more outlets and put in new smoke detectors. Total cost was about $6K.

Wow, that's very high.

Does it need wiring? You can probably do a heavy up for $2-3K and just change the plugs. If you are handy you can change the outlets yourself.

We just rewired our 1700 sqft townhouse for 12.5k. We kept the 200amp box that was already there.

Panel replacement/upgrade from fuses to breakers, $5k.

Re-wiring entire house, $20k+
Is wiring copper or aluminum? If copper I wouldn’t rewrite, it’s not worth it.

looking at buying a 4 br house built in the 60s that has an old fashioned fuse box (no breakers) and no 3-prong outlets in most of the home. what's the range we'd be looking at if we need to just replace the box all the way to rewiring the whole house?
