We design around historic envelopes and tight mechanical rooms common in Cambridge and Somerville multi-families, coordinating equipment paths before installation begins.

Electrical Service Upgrades & Knob-and-Tube Remediation

Full replacement of legacy 60A and 100A services with modern 200A panels, load-calculated for heat pumps, EV chargers, and today's demands. Our licensed electricians safely remediate or isolate live knob-and-tube wiring found throughout Boston's pre-1940 housing, restoring insurability and safety in one coordinated project.

Architectural Recessed & LED Lighting Design

Photometrically planned recessed lighting layouts that respect plaster ceilings, shallow joist bays, and historic trim. As dedicated lighting consultants, we specify IC-rated, airtight housings and dimmable LED systems that meet energy code while delivering the clean, gallery-quality look architects in Newton and Brookline ask for.

Fire Protection & Life Safety Engineering

Code-compliant fire alarm, sprinkler, and suppression design for commercial, institutional, and multi-residential buildings across Boston and Quincy. We handle the nuance of Massachusetts fire code and NFPA standards so your project passes inspection the first time — with stamped drawings and coordinated MEP documents included.
