Electrical installations in residential buildings.

One agreed scope across the development

Installations in a multi-family building extend beyond the flats. The quotation should clearly define the scope in communal areas, plant rooms, the garage and outside. The boundaries of responsibility between specialist contractors also matter.

• Supply cables and distribution boards covered by the documentation.
• Electrical installations in flats and communal areas.
• Lighting, accessories and agreed equipment power supplies.
• ELV systems, CCTV and access control within the agreed scope.
• Testing and documentation for handover of the completed work.

Coordination before work begins

We discuss the work sequence, readiness of different building areas and arrangements for releasing work areas. We agree material deliveries, room access and coordination with other trades.

If documentation needs clarification, we identify decisions to resolve before installation. Material changes and solutions affecting cost should have an agreed scope and approval from the relevant project participants.

From site power to handover

We can start working together earlier, with the grid connection, operator paperwork and construction power supply. The permanent installation scope is agreed separately based on the design.

If charging points are planned, consider them when planning the supply and cable routes. Explore EV charger installation for residential developments.

How do we start discussing installation work?

Send the location, number of flats, electrical drawings, available bill of quantities and schedule. Specify the expected split between materials and labour and the scope of ELV systems, testing and documentation.

We will use this to assess the scope and site organisation. If the project is still at concept stage, we can begin with installation design and cost optimisation. The terms and team are tailored to the development.
