Circuit level work for Santa Cruz's wiring eras: knob and tube remnants, cloth conductors, aluminum branch circuits, and failed remodel work.
Wiring work in Santa Cruz reads the city's eras in order: knob and tube remnants in the oldest Westside cottages, cloth era conductors in the pre-war stock, aluminum branch wiring in the 1960s and 1970s builds toward Live Oak, and modern runs behind a century of remodels. The scope names the era it found and prices the remedy for that era, because each fails differently and insures differently.
Wiring work is planned work with three call now exceptions: heat or burning smell at a device, visible arcing, and any circuit that has started scorching. Aluminum wiring itself is not an emergency; it is a known remedy with a schedule, and anyone who tells you it must all come out this week without showing you device level evidence is selling, not assessing.
