Restoration counts for more than half of all building work these days. Since the 1970s the renovation of old buildings has become increasingly important. Both buildings from the post-war era and historic buildings must be adapted to conform to current standards. This conformity is not only important for thermal insulation and energy consumption but also all household technical and electrical systems. For example almost no old buildings have sufficient electric wiring, plugs and switches and they do not correspond with modern standards especially safety standards.

If renovations are being carried out in an occupied house then the resulting disturbance from noise and dirt must be kept to a minimum. A 1920s house can be updated to our multimedia era without cutting new channels in the walls. New plugs and light switches are increasingly attached onto the outside of plaster walls and the necessary wiring is carried in the skirting board along the surface of the wall. All electrical systems such as plugs, switches, sockets for telephones and internet, alarm systems, automatic shutters and blinds require leads and controls and these can be attached to the surface of the wall.
