02 / SERVICE AREA

Kinder service area.

From our Lake Charles shop.

Trucks dispatch out of 803 W Bayou Pines Dr, Ste D, Lake Charles, LA 70601. Most days a crew is already inside Calcasieu Parish on another job, so the drive is short. For after-hours calls we roll one out from the shop.

Rewires in Kinder happen on older farm homes that still hold 1960s or 1970s aluminum branch wiring, early Romex without a ground conductor, or in the rare case knob-and-tube in a pre-1960 farmhouse. Aluminum branch wiring from 1965 to 1973 has documented overheating issues at devices and splices and gets remediated with COPALUM crimps or AlumiConn connectors per CPSC guidance. Early ungrounded Romex cannot support modern GFCI or AFCI protection cleanly without re-pulling home runs.

For a full rewire we plan the home in stages: panel and service first, then home runs and branch circuits, then devices and finish trim. We use NM-B in walls and attic, MC where staple support is unreliable, UF-B or PVC conduit for any exterior runs to outbuildings or yard lighting, and we ground per NEC 250. AFCI per NEC 210.12 and GFCI per NEC 210.8 are baked in. We add circuits where the original wiring was sized too small (kitchen, laundry, bath, HVAC, shop) and we re-pull home runs that were extended over the decades.

Most Kinder rewires are done while the home stays occupied. We work room by room, leave temporary power, and schedule drywall patches around the same trades the homeowner already uses. Full rewires take two to four weeks depending on size, plus drive time on each day we are out.

  Permits

Permits and inspections

Kinder is in Allen Parish, north of Calcasieu Parish. Electrical permits are issued through Allen Parish Permits. We confirm the parish requirements before we pull and coordinate the inspector. Permit work runs under LA Lic #73821. You do not touch the paperwork.

  Warranty

What's covered

Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee on every install. If our work fails because of how we put it in, we come back and fix it at no charge. Documented in writing at handoff and stays with the home.

04 / WHO TO HIRE

Why hiring a licensed electrician matters.

Here is the no-spin cut on electrical wiring and rewiring. Same answer we would give a friend in Westlake or Carlyss, whether or not we end up winning the job.

Hayes Electrical

A licensed electrician

LA-licensed master electrician walks every call. Family-owned, owner-led, based in Lake Charles.
Permits pulled under LA Lic #73821 and inspections coordinated with the Calcasieu, Jeff Davis, Allen, or Cameron Parish AHJ when the work calls for it.
Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee in writing. If our work fails, we come back and fix it. Stays with the home.
Insured and carrying workers' comp on every truck that rolls.
Quote on paper before we cut the first wire. The signed number is the number you pay.
A handyman

Unlicensed for electrical

No LA state electrical license. Can swap a fixture, cannot legally touch a panel, a service entrance, or a rewire.
No permits. When the parish or city audits the work later, it does not pass.
No real warranty. "Call me if it breaks" falls apart the day you actually need it.
If unlicensed work starts a fire, your homeowner policy can flat-out deny the claim.
Cash discount sometimes shows up on the invoice. So does the next problem.
DIY

Doing it yourself

Cheap right up until something goes sideways. Most jobs need a load calc, NEC compliance, and a permit.
A failed inspection sends you back to redo it. Selling the house later, the buyer's inspector flags it the same way.
No warranty. The replacement is on you.
Hot wiring is no joke. Most fatal home electrical accidents in this country are DIY.
If you genuinely know what you are doing, fine. If you do not, call us first.

★★★★★ Electrical panel replacement or upgrading, Outdoor lighting installation, Electrical fixture installation

My experience with Hayse Electrical was a very possitive one. At my first meeting with Dorian and I explaining my situation with my problem I was having, he explained what the company was going to do in very precise detail, was able to quote me a price right away and set up an appointment in the meeting. On the day of my appointment McKenzie and Hayden called me ahead of time to say they were on their way and arrived when said time. They both worked continually all day til all the work was done. Both men were very nice and worked well together and alone. I would recommend Hayes Electrical, Dorian, Mckenzie and Hayden and I would use this company again.

Common questions for Electrical Wiring and Rewiring in Kinder

Can I stay in the house during a Kinder rewire?

Yes, in most cases. We stage rewires room by room and leave temporary power so the kitchen, refrigerator, well pump, and one or two outlets stay live. Full-house no-power windows are limited to specific cutover events.

Does insurance require old wiring to be replaced?

Many insurers either decline new policies or charge significantly higher premiums on homes with active aluminum branch wiring or knob-and-tube. Even when allowed, those wiring methods are not compatible with the insulated, occupied wall cavities of a modern home. We recommend remediation.

How long does a full Kinder rewire take?

Two to four weeks for a typical single-family home, depending on square footage, outbuilding scope, and how much wall opening the routing requires. Drive time adds on top because Kinder is 30 to 60 minutes from the shop.
