What a heritage rewire in Glastonbury covers
A heritage rewire isn't a normal rewire. Working in medieval, Georgian and Victorian stock in Glastonbury means you can't chase walls, you can't drill through original cornice, and you can't bury cables under modern plasterboard tricks. Every cable route is planned through joist voids, behind original skirting, under floorboards or around chimney breasts. Lath-and-plaster walls get fished from above and below — never broken open. No surface trunking, ever. Brass plate accessories (Click Scolmore Definity / Forbes & Lomax / Hamilton — specifier-led) replace plastic. Dimming circuits installed throughout to match period lighting design. Full Listed Building Consent supporting documentation provided as standard.
