Services
Electrical Installation
We deliver full electrical installation projects for commercial, industrial and public sector clients. Our services include low voltage distribution, lighting systems, fire alarms, data cabling and control cabling. With experience across offices, hospitals, manufacturing sites and retail units, we ensure compliant installations meeting BS 7671 standards. Our team completes projects efficiently while minimising business disruption.
Electrical Testing
As NICEIC-approved contractors, we conduct comprehensive electrical testing including fixed wire tests, PAT testing, thermal imaging and arc flash surveys. Our engineers use modern equipment to produce detailed reports on electrical system safety and compliance. We test commercial, industrial and public sector installations to identify potential faults before they become hazards, ensuring regulatory compliance and workplace safety.
Generator Hire
We offer generator hire from 15-2000kVA for emergency, standby and temporary power needs. Our range includes standard and containerised units with fuel tanks. Hire rates start at 59/week excluding VAT, with flexible terms from short-term to annual contracts. Generators support continuity during outages or for construction sites and events requiring portable power solutions.
Thermal Imaging
Our thermal imaging service uses infrared technology to detect overheating electrical components without system interruption. Engineers identify hotspots caused by loose connections, insulation breakdown or worn parts during normal operations. This proactive maintenance prevents dangerous faults and unplanned downtime, providing critical insights for scheduled repairs and system reliability.
Maintenance Services
We provide planned preventive maintenance and reactive repairs for low voltage electrical systems. Our programmes extend equipment lifespan while ensuring ongoing compliance. For urgent issues, our 24-hour service rapidly diagnoses and resolves faults. Using latest diagnostic tools, we minimise business disruption through systematic testing, reporting and targeted interventions across commercial and industrial installations.
