Frequently asked questions
What does an electrical design service include?
It includes electrical layouts, socket and switch positions, power and load planning, lighting design, data and media provision, and a written specification that can be priced and installed accurately.
Do I need electrical design before building work starts?
Design is most valuable before first fix. Decisions about lighting positions, control and cable routes are far easier — and far less expensive — to make before ceilings and walls are closed.
Can you work from an architect's drawings?
Yes. We regularly work from architectural drawings and coordinate directly with architects, designers and main contractors.
