Quick answers
What does a commercial electrician do for a small business?
A commercial electrician handles installations and maintenance in non-residential premises.
That typically means lighting upgrades, additional power points, distribution board (DB) changes, emergency lighting, signage circuits and periodic EICRs. For shops, salons, cafés and small offices, the work overlaps heavily with domestic — the main differences are scale, distribution boards instead of consumer units, and the inspection intervals an insurer or landlord may require.
How often are commercial EICRs needed?
For most low-risk commercial premises, an EICR is recommended every 5 years.
Higher-use sites, sites with greater risk (such as wet areas in salons or kitchens), or those required by an insurer or landlord may need EICRs more often. The previous report should state when the next inspection is due — if it doesn't, the default is 5 years.

Commercial electrical FAQs
Do you work around our opening hours?
Yes, where the job allows. Many commercial jobs can be scheduled for early mornings, late evenings or weekends so trading isn't disrupted.
Do you provide written quotes and itemised invoices?
Yes. Quotes are written and itemised, with materials and labour split out. Invoices are sent by email and can be paid by BACS or card.
Can you maintain emergency lighting and signage circuits?
Yes. Emergency light testing, replacement of failed units, and signage circuit work are all covered.
Do you take on smaller commercial jobs?
Yes — a single tripped circuit or a few extra power points is just as welcome as a larger fit-out. Smaller commercial jobs are often easier to fit in around larger ones.
Are you insured / qualified?
Insurance and qualification details can be provided on request — just ask when getting in touch.
