Commercial electrical FAQs
Do you work outside normal business hours?
Absolutely. We know downtime is costly, so we routinely carry out commercial work evenings, weekends and during planned shutdowns to keep disruption to your operation to a minimum.
How often does commercial property need an EICR?
We recommend a fixed-wire test (EICR) at least every five years for most commercial premises, and more often in higher-risk environments. Many landlords and insurers require a valid certificate to stay covered.
Can you handle three-phase and larger installations?
Yes. Our engineers work confidently with three-phase supplies, distribution boards, sub-mains, industrial machinery and high-level lighting. No site is too large or complex.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance contracts?
We do. We provide planned preventative maintenance and reactive call-out cover, tailored to your site, so your electrical systems stay safe, compliant and running.
