Avoid an all-or-nothing assumption
Some homes need targeted corrections; others justify a comprehensive rewire. Testing and access determine the sensible path.
Protecting the character of the home
Careful routing through attics, crawlspaces and planned openings can reduce disturbance to original finishes.
The useful first step
Get the system understood before the work is sold.
A licensed on-site estimate gives Malco the information needed to explain the real options, cost drivers and safest next step.

Before you book.
Is this a substitute for an on-site inspection?
No. Electrical symptoms can share several causes. An on-site assessment is the safest way to confirm the condition and scope.
When should I stop troubleshooting and call?
Call immediately for heat, smoke, burning odor, arcing, water near equipment or repeated breaker trips. Avoid opening energized equipment.
