A standard refurbishment in an office involves upgrading a number of electrical systems from the wiring, lighting, smart features as well as the main driving force for all electrical systems, the consumer unit.
The first step in an office refurbishment is having MES Electrical Services attend an initial site survey to conduct a risk assessment and inspect the existing infrastructure. We can then create detailed plans to include the specific requirements you need for the new office space. Our commercial electricians are experienced with refurbishment work, making sure customers consider finer detail such as the number of outlets you need in a conference room when presenting powerpoints to clients.
Should I consider a consumer unit upgrade during an electrical refurbishment?
During a recent office electrical refurbishment at The Woodlands in Bradley Stoke, the existing unit at the premises was in desperate need of an upgrade. The unit had deteriorated over time and lacked modern safety features such as RCBO protection. So a consumer unit upgrade should be considered for a number of reasons. Achieve improved continuity with RCBO’s as only the faulty circuit will be interrupted rather than all sockets at the premises. The customer was also mindful of a consumer unit upgrade demonstrating compliance with Health and Safety and Electricity at Work Regulations, creating a safe working environment.
What are the benefits of LED lighting upgrades in an office refurbishment?
LED lighting can completely transform a dull and unwelcoming space into a bright and modern working atmosphere. The customer at The Woodlands wanted to manage utility bills and improve energy efficiency so a suitable option was LED lighting installation. LED bulbs require little maintenance and fewer bulb changes which will keep running costs low.
LED lighting in office spaces actually improves productivity amongst employees. You won’t experience the lag before bulbs reach maximum illumination, instead achieving crisp, evenly distributed lighting.
Will I have to shut my business during an office refurbishment?
It does depend on the complexity of the upgrade and the size of premises. However, MES Electrical Services go above and beyond to work around your busy schedule. With the project at The Woodlands in Bradley Stoke, the team pulled out all the stops to work through the weekend to minimise downtime for the client.
Where possible, our reliable and experienced team take on a methodical approach when it comes to refurbishments, clearing up as we progress with the project to keep mess to a minimum.
