Partial or broader replacement
Some homes have knob-and-tube only in certain areas while others have a wider footprint. The correct scope depends on what remains active and what work is being planned.
New circuit routes
Replacement may require routes through basements, attics, chases, closets, or limited openings in finished surfaces. A good plan tries to balance safe electrical work with reasonable access.
Finishes and restoration
Electrical work and finish repair are separate parts of many older-home projects. Clarify who is responsible for opening and repairing walls, ceilings, or trim before work starts.
