Historic homes in Pilot Point’s downtown, particularly those built between the 1880s and 1950s, often suffer from outdated knob-and-tube wiring, deteriorated insulation, and insufficient panel capacity. These electrical systems were not designed for modern appliances and can pose fire hazards. Restoring or replacing wiring around streets like Broadway and near the Bonnie and Clyde historic area requires specialized knowledge of Denton County regulations and preservation guidelines. We recommend complete rewiring to ensure safety and compliance.
