Aluminum branch circuit wiring installed in homes built between 1965–1973 is a fire hazard and poses serious safety risks. Aluminum expands and contracts differently than copper, causing loose connections that overheat and ignite insulation—the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission found aluminum wiring homes are 55 times more likely to experience fire. Stoney Creek homes from that era commonly have aluminum wiring. Licensed electricians fix it by pigtailing (connecting copper to aluminum safely) for CAD $500–CAD $1,500 per circuit, or full rewiring for CAD $8,000–CAD $15,000.
