Electrical Work for Renovations
When a space changes, so do its electrical requirements. A refurbishment is the ideal time to assess what is already in place, what can be retained and what needs to be adapted to the new layout.
Renovation isn’t just about what you can see
A new kitchen, a different layout, more power sockets or new lighting are not just aesthetic changes. They often create new requirements for the electrical installation.
That is why electrical work needs to be planned from the very start of the renovation, rather than after the finishing touches have already been completed.
Ideally, before the wallwork is completed and before the positions of the furniture and fittings are finalised.
Not necessarily. This depends on the actual condition of the existing wiring and the requirements of the renovation.
This is one of the main reasons why the electrical installation is reviewed during a renovation: the new space may require different sockets, wiring and provisions.
