Removal knob and tube, enhancing lighting
We live in a larger heritage home with beautiful woodwork and moldings throughout. The house had a lot of remaining wiring from 1910, which was of great concern to our insurers. The two conditions seemed incompatible for a painless solution. We were fortunate to meet Robert, who advised us of previous similar work performed , with limited damage to the homes. We were sufficiently reassured to proceed, and I am very pleased that we did. Roberts main electricians on the job were Jaret and Steve, who were able , over the course of a few weeks disconnect all old wiring, replacing it with new circuits, as well as adding over 90 halogen potlights to brighten up the dark corners of each room and hallway.The result was nothing short of spectacular. Our old house has simply come alive with this transformation. Whereas we were previously expecting to paint out much of the dark wood, the new lighting has brought a lovely warm glow that we had never previously seen. All of this work was performed with remarkably little damage to the original plasterwork, and no woodwork was even touched. It was a great pleasure to have had Robert and his colleagues in our home. I would ( and already have ) recommend them without hesitation to anyone contemplating an electrical upgrade on a heritage style home. Thank you very much. Ken and Jenny

Hi Ken, Thanks for the wonderful review, thanks to our installers
( Jaret and Steve) we have another successful Project under our belts. I must say this was the trickiest installation thus far in replacing Knob And Tube wiring in a heritage home. The fact that you decided to add the additional Potlights throughout the home was not only a good idea esthetically, it also aided us in reducing the amount of repair work needed. Of course your personal touch regarding the repair work was quit ingenious as well lol.
Enjoy your summer Ken. It was a real pleasure working with you and your family on this Project
Cheers
Robert
