Electrical work in Irby
Older stone cottages on one street and postwar housing on the next, which are completely different jobs.

Rewiring
The village core has solid walled older cottages where routing is the whole problem: no cavities, thick walls, and making good after chasing that costs more than the electrical work. The postwar housing around it is the opposite, with cavities, stud walls and loft access.
Sockets and lighting
Two houses a hundred yards apart can be a half day and two days for the same nominal job, purely because of how the cable gets there. That is why the first visit matters here more than most.
Consumer units
Varying ages throughout, and in the older cottages often the only modern part of the installation.
Outdoor and garden electrics
Village gardens, outbuildings and the occasional old supply run nobody has details of.

Questions from Irby
Why would the same job cost more in a cottage than next door?
Because of how the cable gets there. A cavity or a stud wall takes a cable easily. A solid stone wall has to be chased, and then plastered and decorated. The electrical work is similar; everything around it is not.
Do you do small jobs?
Yes. A socket, a light, a fault. The thing worth knowing is that getting set up costs much the same whatever the size, so one small job is rarely a tenth of the price of ten.
Other areas covered
Twelve towns across the peninsula. What decides an electrical job is the age of the installation rather than the age of the house, and on the Wirral those two are often decades apart.
