From 1940s Wiring to Modern Safety in Pullman, WA
July 30, 2026
This electrical system modernization in Pullman, WA involved removing aging wiring installed in the 1940s and installing updated electrical components to improve safety, reliability, and functionality. Cheetah Electric performed a careful evaluation of the home, then developed a practical, cost-conscious plan that addressed the necessary upgrades without recommending unnecessary work.
Because of the system age, the project required extensive troubleshooting to find existing issues before any removal or replacement began. Our team methodically diagnosed complex wiring problems, identifying points of failure and potential safety hazards. Dennis led the advanced troubleshooting and electrical diagnostics, using his experience to pinpoint difficult-to-find wiring faults while keeping the homeowner informed at each step.
With the problem areas identified, we planned the removal of outdated 1940s wiring in a way that protected the home and existing finishes as much as possible. The plan included clear material estimates and realistic project timelines, which helped the work stay on schedule and gave the homeowner accurate expectations for each phase of the job. Joe coordinated the project from start to finish, handling communication and scheduling so the homeowner always knew what to expect.
Ethan, Paul, and Brandon completed the installation work efficiently and with attention to detail. They removed the old wiring carefully, installed modern components where needed, and kept the work area clean and organized throughout the project. The installation team focused on safe connections and reliable routing of new wiring, so the upgraded system would perform well under everyday use and be easier to service in the future.
The project team emphasized choosing the right solutions for the homeowner, balancing safety upgrades and cost-effectiveness. Complex challenges that at first seemed difficult were corrected through diagnostic testing and step-by-step problem solving, which allowed the renovation to move forward with confidence. Material needs were estimated accurately, which reduced delays and avoided unexpected costs.
The end result was a successful modernization of an older home electrical system, completed with quality craftsmanship and honest communication. The homeowner, who has more than 30 years of experience in the construction industry, praised the team's workmanship, integrity, efficiency, and professionalism. They rated the experience 10 out of 10 and recommended Cheetah Electric to homeowners throughout Moscow, Pullman, and the surrounding communities.
This Pullman electrical project demonstrates Cheetah Electric's approach to older-home upgrades: thorough diagnostics, clear planning, and careful execution. Homeowners in Pullman, WA who are dealing with aging wiring can expect straightforward assessments, practical recommendations, and a team that keeps them informed from troubleshooting through final installation.

Client Review
I want to give high praise to some amazing people I recently had the privilege of working with in my home. I needed to demo out a lot of old electrical that dates back to the 1940’s and replace it. I have work construction for 30 years in residential, commercial, remodels, new construction, as a builder, superintendent, construction project manager. I decided to try out Cheeta Electric for the first time. Joe was my first contact and he has been the one planning and coordinating everything behind the scenes. He sent me Dennis who was the electrician who did all the complex troubleshooting. I honestly thought some things were impossible until he arrived. I loved his sensitivity to cost and his honesty in making it clear to me about doing everything he can and not doing anything he shouldn’t. His calculations for materials and time line were spot on. I also want to acknowledge Ethan, Paul, and Brandon for their tremendous work ethic. The words that come to mind is high efficiency, cleanliness and professional mannerism. Overall, I have been having a very pleasant experience with Cheeta Electric and I will be recommending this team to anyone with electrical needs in Moscow, Pullman, and surrounding areas. I give them a 10 out of 10!
