Commercial isn't bigger domestic. It's a different game
Commercial electrical work has compliance and liability layers that domestic does not. Fire alarm sign-off has to align with your Fire Risk Assessment. Emergency lighting needs annual testing per BS 5266. EICRs are mandatory every 5 years and immediate on lease change. Health and Safety inspections expect to see all of it documented. Trying to use a domestic electrician for a commercial site usually means failed audits, blocked insurance claims and emergency call-outs that should never have been needed.
We do commercial electrical work properly. Risk assessments and method statements (RAMS) on every site visit. Out-of-hours work where required to avoid trading disruption. Tenant and landlord communication coordinated. Full compliance documentation issued for your facilities file and audit trail.
- RAMS provided for every site visit, no surprises for facilities teams
- Out-of-hours and weekend work to avoid trading disruption
- Multi-zone fire alarm and emergency lighting systems certified to BS 5839 and BS 5266
- Three-phase distribution boards designed against actual demand calculations
- £5 million public liability insurance for site work
