BTS with Lumen Brothers on a Local Historic Re-Wire Project


Get a behind the scenes look at what it takes to re-wire an historic home and bring it up to modern electrical code standards by checking out this video. Join Joshua and Doug as they share tips and tricks on how to identify historic wiring inside of your home and show you their personal approach to remediating it.

Running brand new wires inside of the walls and ceilings of an existing historic home can be tricky, cumbersome work. Some of you may be wondering, ‘How do you get new wires inside of the walls and ceilings of an already existing home?’ This video details some of our approaches and takes you inside the mind of the Lumen Brothers team as they determine the proper approach for each scenario they face. Whether the exterior walls of the home have no interior framing, making running wires behind the plaster nearly impossible, or identifying knob and tube wiring in the first place, this video offers an inside look at what is involved in rewiring a classic house.

If you have purchased an historic property and you’re curious whether or not it still has some knob and tube present or you’re aware of the historic wiring and would like a consultation to remediate it, click to the link below to contact us:
