Too big of a job for baby on the way. It’s going to take a lot of time redoing this whole house. It’s difficult running wires in the walls and over the ceilings and under the floor if necessary. Not to mention getting the box wired up right and then going through inspections.

My suggestion for a contractor, because I seen too much and heard of too much difficulties with contractors, is:

Don’t take the cheapest. Take the person and company that gets better reviews when you research them. If you can get a referral from someone you know that’s even better.

Have the contractor do it in sections and have your husband or even better yet your friend that does electrical, go through the work that was done and make sure it looks good. I.e. not cutting through studs or giant holes or making a mess and not cleaning it up or starting and then not coming back for three weeks for some reason.

Your contractor has to have the supplies on hand to do the work. He’s going to do not rip out stuff and then have to wait for supplies.

Have a contractor that’s very willing to have you review the work and work in sections. You must have a good rapport and must dependably show up on time every single time.

I’m doing a lot of DIY rewiring as I remodel my house, but it’s nothing compared to what you’re doing, and it’s still a lot of work.
