Renovating a post-war Macleod home
Post-war and 1950s–70s houses are a renovator’s favourite: solid bones, good blocks and plenty of potential. The electrical side is often where the biggest updates are needed.
If you are planning a home renovation, make sure an electrical renovation is part of the plan. Original wiring may need replacing, and these homes were rarely built with enough power points for modern living.
Opening up walls is the ideal time to rewire, add circuits and plan lighting properly.
Some renovators tackle the house in stages. We can plan the electrical work so each stage fits the next, rather than redoing work later.
