The Role Of A Commercial Electrician
Commercial electricians are tasked with repairing, installing and ultimately ensuring the safe and efficient function of electricity throughout commercial buildings, be that by maintaining electrical systems, installing and wiring appliances or diagnosing and fixing electrical faults. Generally, the level of technical expertise required by a commercial electrician will surpass that of a residential technician who completes repairs and installations for domestic properties. This is due to the scale of the tasks that they encounter, with commercial professionals having to deal with everything from business wide systems, high-voltage generators and sensitive security systems.
Qualified commercial electricians must complete comprehensive training in order to pursue such a career, and reliable professionals will be well-versed in the complexities of various tools, processes and job-specific pieces of equipment. Able to complete jobs at a large scale and with a quick turnaround time, commercial electrical contractors will stay up-to-date on the latest developments within the profession, as well as any innovations within the industry..
NICEIC Contractor Approval
At Ian Hobbs Technical Services, we take pride in the fact that we are approved by the National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NICEIC). NICEIC approval is a badge of honour for any technical services company, as it confirms the reliability of a contractor, having been assessed to the highest standards. We have been thoroughly inspected and overseen by a professional body, giving you peace of mind that we are operating in a responsible manner. When selecting a commercial electrician to work with, always check that they are approved by a trustworthy professional body. This stamp of approval confirms that they are overseen by industry professionals. Want to learn more about us and our background? Click here.
Skill Level, Qualifications And Experience
Though you may expect a commercial electrician to operate at a high standard, there are no guarantees unless you decide to work with a service provider who has not only been in operation for a considerable period, but also a professional firm that is appropriately qualified, with prior examples of exceptional workmanship. As well as plenty of glowing testimonials from business owners and commercial clients we have worked with over the years, our case studies speak for themselves. From working with a large poultry supplier on a comprehensive technical development, to assisting a leading South West car dealership, we come equipped with the know-how to fulfil a range of unique requirements. Well-qualified, competitively priced and always reliable, we’re the ideal technical services firm to fix faulty appliances or complete comprehensive electrical installations.
Insurance Or Licensing
Don’t overlook the importance of insurance when weighing up the reliability of a potential collaborator, as neglecting this crucial attribute could have costly implications at a latter date. The best thing about licensed and insured electricians is that their work is guaranteed, cutting out rookie mistakes and providing you with a safety net in the event that something does go wrong. Valid insurance should cover on-site accidents, equipment breakdowns and fire coverage, therefore all legitimate electrical service companies should be insured. Comprehensive insurance will cover all manner of potential hazards and issues, which are unlikely to occur, but not unheard of.
Friendly Communication
Though not written in black and white as part of an absolute contractual requirement for commercial electrical contractors, we believe that kindness can go a long way. At Ian Hobbs, we’re always ready to greet you with a smile, and our team of friendly contractors will reliably communicate with you throughout the process. Regardless of the project timeline, scale of the task and size of the team required, we can always be relied upon for speedy correspondence and punctuality. Returning customers opt for us because of our approach, so enquire about our company today for a tailored quote or to have your pressing questions answered.
