“Our warehouse in Aston needed a complete fire alarm upgrade and these lads sorted it in three days without disrupting operations. The testing was thorough, documentation spot on, and the price was actually lower than two other quotes we got. Proper job.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our services and how we can help you
How much does commercial electrical work typically cost in Birmingham?
Pricing varies based on your specific needs, but you'll get transparent, itemised quotes before any work begins. A basic EICR inspection for a small office might start around £200-300, while full fire alarm installations or complete rewires depend on building size and complexity. We've served over 2,758 customers since 1993, so we understand West Midlands business budgets and always aim to deliver cost-effective solutions without compromising safety standards.
What qualifications should I look for in a commercial electrician?
You need electricians with full 18th Edition qualifications and NICEIC approval as a minimum. Our team holds these certifications, plus our Principal Duty Holder is C&G 2391 certified. We're also registered with City & Guilds and CheckATrade approved. These credentials ensure your commercial work meets current UK regulations and you receive proper certification that satisfies insurance companies and council inspections.
How long does a commercial electrical installation usually take?
Timelines depend on project scope, but we prioritise minimal disruption to your operations. Simple jobs like consumer unit upgrades might take a day, while comprehensive fire alarm systems could need three to five days. We often work evenings or weekends to keep your business running. During your site survey, we'll provide realistic schedules based on your specific Birmingham premises and operational requirements.
Do you provide emergency lighting installation for offices?
Yes, we design, install and maintain emergency lighting systems that keep your West Midlands commercial site regulation-ready. We'll assess your premises layout, install compliant emergency lights in escape routes and high-risk areas, then conduct thorough testing. You'll receive full commissioning documentation proving your system meets current UK safety standards, protecting both your staff and your business from compliance issues.
Why do rental properties need regular electrical safety certificates?
UK law requires landlords to provide valid Electrical Installation Condition Reports for rental properties, and councils actively enforce this. Without current EICRs, you risk hefty fines and potential prosecution. We complete rapid inspections across multiple units—one landlord had six Edgbaston properties certified within one week. Our quick turnaround and clear documentation keep you compliant and protect your tenants.
Can you fix electrical problems left by previous contractors?
Absolutely. We've rescued major projects including a city centre café facing disaster after negligent contractors left incomplete work with no plans. We specialise in remedial fixes, creating proper documentation and delivering full certification even under tight deadlines. If you're stuck with messy, half-finished electrical work, we'll assess the situation honestly and provide solutions that get your Birmingham business operational safely.
What's included in a commercial electrical site survey?
You get a comprehensive assessment of your current electrical systems, identification of any compliance gaps, checks on fire alarms and emergency lighting functionality, and discussion of your specific business needs including future expansion plans. We'll examine access control requirements if relevant, then provide detailed plans showing all necessary work with transparent, itemised pricing so you can budget accurately without hidden surprises.
How often should fire alarm systems be tested and maintained?
UK regulations require weekly basic tests and annual professional servicing for commercial fire alarm systems. We offer maintenance contracts that include regular testing, documentation updates and emergency callout services. Proper maintenance prevents costly system failures during official inspections and ensures your West Midlands business stays compliant. We'll send reminders so you never miss critical safety checks that protect your premises and occupants.
Do you work with kitchen installers on commercial projects?
Yes, we're trusted by multiple West Midlands kitchen installers and complete up to 30 full kitchen rewires weekly. We understand the coordination needed between trades, provide proper certification and documentation, and conduct thorough safety checks on every commercial kitchen installation. Whether you're fitting out a restaurant, café or workplace kitchen, we deliver reliable electrical work that meets health and safety requirements.
What certification will I receive after commercial electrical work?
You'll receive complete documentation including EICR certificates, installation records, fire alarm commissioning sheets, emergency lighting test results and detailed system diagrams. This paperwork proves your business meets current 18th Edition standards and satisfies insurance companies, council inspectors and health and safety auditors. We label all circuits clearly and provide drawings so future maintenance becomes straightforward for your team.
Can you install EV chargers at business premises in Birmingham?
Yes, we're OZEV-approved installers qualified to handle government EV chargepoint grants. We work with leading UK brands to deliver reliable, high-performance workplace chargers across Birmingham and the wider West Midlands at cost-effective prices.
