A three-storey Victorian terrace with original rubber-insulated wiring in places. The owners were staying in during the work, with two children at home.

03 / Solution
- Room-by-room programme agreed before day one
- Cables run under lifted boards and down neat chases – cornices untouched
- New RCBO consumer unit with surge protection
- Kitchen re-planned with extra sockets and three lighting zones
04 / Result
Finished in seven working days, ready for the plasterer, with a floor-by-floor circuit chart in the cupboard.
