Electrician:
- our panel looks good -
- we'll need to check the wiring of the light fixtures (knob and tube dangers)
- we'll only need to replace the k&t wiring on the exterior walls (because you can't insulate around it without burning your house down)
- we don't necessarily need to re-wire the stuff in the walls unless we want significantly more voltage than we currently have
- we'll definitely have to rewire the kitchen, but we expected that
- he wants to run wiring to the second floor where the coal chimney is
- there's some new wiring, but it's spotty
- We'll need to rewire the bathroom(s)
Plumber
- He said this is pretty standard
- he wants the coal chimney gone to make room for plumbing
- he's going to give us quotes for tankelss water heaters and non-tankless
- He said that our connection to the city water supply is probably not sufficient for a two-bathroom house. Also, the city might have an issue.
- We can buy cheap fixtures, but never go cheap on a toilet (no problem since we have a particular one in mind)
- He'll quote replacing all the pipes -- he said it was "the smart thing to do"...
- Tankless water heaters require gas lines plumbed
- his quote wont include fixtures
