WHAT WE DO
Fitting out a new shop, cafe or office? We handle the electrical scope end to end - power, lighting, data, exit signs and testing - to your program and your builder's schedule.
COMMERCIAL · CANTERBURY
Commercial electrical fit-outs are a different game to residential — the program is tighter, the sign-offs are more formal and the tenancy conditions dictate what you can and can't do inside the shell. We work as the electrical trade inside builder-led fit-outs and directly for tenants: sub-mains from the tenancy DB, general power to every workstation and kitchen bench, three-phase for commercial ovens, cool rooms and workshops, dedicated LED lighting circuits, exit and emergency lighting to AS 2293, data and comms cabling to workstations, and full testing and tagging on handover.
For hospitality and retail we plan works around trading hours — after-hours and weekend shifts to keep you open — and stage the electrical works so the builder can keep moving. For office fit-outs we coordinate with the base-building electrician, deliver the tenancy DB, sub-mains, general lighting and power, and hand over a fully tested and tagged tenancy with the electrical safety report the landlord's insurance requires.
Every commercial project ends with the same package: full test results, exit and emergency lighting log, test-and-tag register, Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work, and as-installed drawings if we designed the layout. $20M public liability and full workers cover — certificates on request for any site induction.
HOW THE JOB RUNS
We visit the tenancy with your builder or project manager, understand the scope and program, and quote inside 48 hours.
Sub-mains from the tenancy DB, cable trays, GPO and lighting runs, data and comms cabling — all before ceiling and wall linings go on.
GPOs, switches, LED fittings, exit and emergency lighting, workstation power poles or floor boxes — installed, tested and labelled.
Full test results, exit-lighting log, test-and-tag register, CoC and as-installed drawings. On-time, ready for occupancy sign-off.

SYMPTOMS & CAUSES
OUR PROCESS
Same repeatable sequence on every job — no shortcuts, no surprises, no invoices you didn't agree to.
We work with the fitout designer, mechanical trades and IT to lock in lighting, GPO, data and emergency lighting positions.
We install the tenancy sub-board, rough-in wall and ceiling cabling, and coordinate outages with the building manager.
Fittings installed, GPOs terminated, emergency lighting tested and logged, comms cables patched.
Full test to AS/NZS 3000, emergency lighting test to AS 2293.2, CCEW and compliance certificates issued for the building owner.
Typical on-site duration: about 40 hours, depending on access and switchboard condition.
FIXED PRICING
Every job is fixed-priced on site before we touch anything. No hourly meter, no call-out surprise.

Called at 11pm with a tripping switchboard. Electrician arrived within the hour, found the fault and had us back on safely. Honest and professional.
Burning smell from a powerpoint - they took it seriously, came straight out, replaced the circuit and explained everything. Fair fixed price, no upsell.
Lost half the house mid-storm. Empire were the only company that actually answered. Quoted upfront, fixed in one visit. Highly recommend.
Safety switch kept tripping for weeks. Other sparkies just reset it. Empire actually found the faulty appliance and the dodgy wiring behind it.
Burst pipe took out our power. Empire arrived super fast, made it safe and stayed until everything was running again. Lifesavers.
Old switchboard was sparking. They replaced it the same day, all licensed and certified. Cleanest install I've seen.
Power out the entire upstairs at 9pm with a newborn at home. Empire answered, dispatched and fixed it within two hours. So grateful.
Got three quotes for a switchboard upgrade. Empire weren't the cheapest but they were the clearest. Best decision - immaculate workmanship.
Storm tripped half the unit block. Empire turned up Sunday morning, no extra weekend gouge. Just sorted it. Strata are using them from now on.
Called five sparkies before Empire actually picked up. They explained the issue in plain English and gave a fixed price before touching anything.
Switchboard faults, urgent callouts, residential and commercial - handled by the same licensed team.
