What we do and who it is for
Office electrical installation services from a fixed-price quote covering installation, upgrades and compliance work. Serving Medway ME2 and surrounding areas for offices, managed workspaces, landlords, facilities teams and property managers. NICEIC-approved, Part P-registered contractor with written scope, programme and guarantees; inspection, testing and certification supplied on completion.
Typical jobs
- We install desk power and meeting-room supplies in business-park suites at the Science Park and in university departmental offices at West Cambridge, always providing labelled circuits, suitable containment and clear test records tied to the specific building and unit.
- We coordinate data cabling routes with IT providers on Cambridge North and at the Science Park, maintaining separation from electrical services in those developments and documenting all changes against the specific site plans for that neighbourhood.
For occupied offices across Cambridge — for example, research units on the West Cambridge site or small businesses in terraced conversions near the Grafton Centre — we plan isolation windows specific to those buildings, protect local access routes and keep disruption controlled for the occupants. You will receive documentation tied to the Cambridge property that supports maintenance records, landlord obligations and any future alterations for that named premises.

How the work is planned
Before work is scheduled, we survey the office, confirm the scope, identify any operational constraints and issue a fixed written quotation. We map work areas, existing circuits, access routes, isolation requirements and any equipment that must remain operational. Stakeholder meetings establish authorised contacts, working hours, delivery arrangements and the order in which departments can be affected.
We then prepare a programme that separates enabling works, installations, testing and reinstatement. Phased scheduling can keep occupied areas functioning while we complete one zone at a time, including evenings or weekends where agreed. We record agreed boundaries, site rules, access permissions and responsibilities before mobilisation. Materials are selected and ordered against the confirmed scope, with substitutions requiring approval. If site conditions differ from the survey, we pause, explain the issue and agree any change before proceeding.
Compliance and documentation
Compliance is built into our office electrical installation process, with inspection, testing and certification completed in line with the agreed scope and applicable requirements. We record test results, circuit details, observed conditions and any remedial recommendations clearly, giving you documentation suited to your premises and responsibilities.
For fixed wiring, the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 require employers and dutyholders to ensure systems are maintained so as to prevent danger, but there is no statutory interval for commercial electrical installation condition reports (EICRs). Common guidance (for example from the IET) suggests frequencies such as five years for offices, three years for industrial premises and annual checks in some environments; these are advisory recommendations on review frequency, not legal obligations. We’ll help you set a proportionate review schedule based on use, condition and risk.
We can update asset registers, retain certificates and identify actions arising from regulatory updates. Current reports may also be requested by insurers, landlords or licensing bodies.
Minimal disruption and out-of-hours working
Every office installation is planned around your operating hours, access arrangements and critical systems. We agree a written programme identifying affected circuits, isolation points, permitted work areas, supervision requirements and restoration times before work begins. Late night installations can allow containment, sockets, lighting alterations or consumer unit work to proceed when desks and meeting rooms are unoccupied.
Where supply interruption is necessary, we schedule Weekend outages with defined start and finish times, contingency contacts and safe re-energisation checks. We label temporary arrangements, maintain clear escape routes and protect IT equipment, servers and essential services from unintended interruption. Our electricians record test results, circuit changes and isolation details as work progresses. On completion, we verify operation with your responsible person, remove waste and issue the applicable electrical certification. This provides a documented handover and helps your staff return to a safe, functional workspace.
Premises and sites around Medway
In central Medway we survey access routes, existing circuits, containment, fire‑stopping requirements and operational constraints in older Victorian and interwar commercial buildings, then define the installation scope in writing for those town‑centre offices.
Our documentation for each Medway property can include site‑specific drawings, test results, Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs), certificates and updated circuit schedules for the named premises, providing a traceable record for future maintenance and compliance in each neighbourhood.
