Family-run since 1995 Three generations in the trade, one accountable team of two. Overview ## A clear, honestexplanation. What the service is, who it's for, when it's needed, and why professional work matters. What it is Commercial electrical contracting covers everything from single reactive callouts to fully-managed planned maintenance and full-project fit-outs. We install, test, inspect, maintain and repair commercial electrical systems across offices, retail, industrial units, warehousing, hospitality, healthcare and multi-let residential. Who it's for Business owners, facilities managers, main contractors, landlords, letting agents, retail operators and property investors. If you own, run or manage a commercial premises in Leicestershire, or a portfolio of them; we quote, deliver and certify the electrical works. When you need it New premises fit-outs, refurbishments, tenant changes, statutory EICR periods, insurance-driven remedials, expansion, machinery installs, fire alarm upgrades, out-of-hours emergency callouts, planned shutdowns and end-of-tenancy testing. Why it matters Commercial electrical failure doesn't just cost money; it costs trading hours, insurance validity and, in some cases, legal compliance. Landlords and duty-holders have specific responsibilities under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and BS 7671. Getting it right first time, with the paperwork to prove it, is materially cheaper than getting it wrong. The risk ## The real cost of unmanaged commercial electrics Commercial premises fail differently to homes. You lose EPOS, refrigeration, lighting or production, and every hour costs revenue. Reactive-only strategies always end up more expensive than planned maintenance, and duty-holders carry personal responsibility for compliance. ### What can go wrong - Downtime, a single tripped board can shut a shop, restaurant or unit for hours or days. - Non-compliance, an out-of-date EICR can invalidate insurance and expose the duty-holder personally. - Insurance repudiation, undocumented alterations after fit-out are a routine reason for claim refusals. - Stock loss, refrigeration and stock damage from unplanned outages is rarely covered fully. - Reputation damage, customers and tenants remember the day you were shut, not the day you were open. ### Common mistakes - Waiting for the 5-year EICR to fail before budgeting for remedials. - Letting general builders coordinate first- and second-fix electrical works without a competent contractor. - Accepting verbal 'day-rate' quotes with no scope, no RAMS and no certificate at the end. - Skipping planned maintenance to save budget in year one, then spending 3× that on emergency callouts in year two.
