Commercial Electrical Services in Greater Vancouver
Commercial electrical work in Greater Vancouver spans a wide range — office fit-outs in Yaletown, retail buildouts in Burnaby's Metrotown, restaurant kitchens on the North Shore, industrial equipment wiring in Richmond. We do all of it, and we do it on schedule.
Tenant Improvement and Fit-Out Work
Most of our commercial volume is TI work coordinated with general contractors. We staff to the GC schedule, handle rough-in through trim, attend coordination meetings, and provide as-built drawings at close. We have run TI projects from 800 sq ft kiosks to 30,000 sq ft office floors. Off-hours and weekend work is routine for occupied retail and office spaces — we schedule it as part of the quote.
Power Distribution and Service Upgrades
Commercial 200A, 400A, 600A, and 1200A services; three-phase upgrades; meter base replacements. These require BC Hydro coordination and Technical Safety BC permits — both of which we file. We also install and certify emergency and exit lighting to BC Electrical Code requirements, including battery testing and annual certification documentation.
Ongoing Commercial Maintenance
We offer scheduled maintenance contracts for commercial properties — quarterly or annual visits covering panel inspections, thermal scans, emergency lighting tests, and life-safety system checks. For active commercial accounts, same-day emergency response. For new commercial clients, we triage by phone and dispatch within hours when the issue is safety-critical or business-stopping.
Do you do tenant improvement (TI) electrical work in Vancouver and Burnaby?
Yes. Commercial TI work — office fit-outs, retail buildouts, restaurant kitchens, medical clinics — is a regular part of our commercial workload. We coordinate with general contractors and landlord-side base building requirements.
Can you work outside business hours to avoid tenant disruption?
Yes. We schedule evening and weekend work routinely for occupied retail and office spaces. Off-hours scheduling is quoted at a premium but is often the right call to avoid lost business.
Do you handle commercial panel upgrades and service entrances?
Yes. Commercial 200A, 400A, 600A, and 1200A services, three-phase upgrades, and meter base replacements. These typically require BC Hydro coordination and Technical Safety BC permits, both of which we file.
What about emergency and exit lighting for code compliance?
We install and certify emergency lighting and exit signs to BC Electrical Code and BC Building Code requirements, including battery testing, monthly inspection logs, and annual certification documentation.
Can you wire industrial three-phase equipment?
Yes. Three-phase 208V, 480V, and 600V installs for HVAC, manufacturing equipment, EV fleet chargers, and industrial machinery. We size feeders, install disconnects, and commission to manufacturer specs.
Do you provide ongoing commercial electrical maintenance?
Yes. We offer scheduled maintenance contracts for commercial properties — quarterly or annual visits covering panel inspections, thermal scans, emergency lighting tests, and life-safety system checks.
Can you coordinate with my general contractor on a commercial buildout?
Yes. Most of our commercial work is GC-coordinated. We handle electrical scope from rough-in through trim, work to GC schedules, and provide as-built drawings at close.
How fast can you respond to a commercial electrical emergency?
For active commercial accounts on a service contract, same-day response. For new commercial clients, we triage by phone and dispatch within hours when the issue is safety-critical or business-stopping.
Do you install EV chargers at commercial properties?
Yes. Multi-unit residential parkades, fleet depots, retail customer chargers, and workplace chargers — including networked, payment-enabled chargers and load-management systems for high-density installs.
Can you handle commercial generator installations?
Yes. Standby generators, automatic transfer switches, and emergency power systems for commercial buildings. We size, install, permit, and commission. Annual maintenance contracts available.
Do you do commercial lighting design and retrofits?
Yes. LED retrofits with rebate documentation (BC Hydro Power Smart), new commercial lighting design for retail and office, dimming and control systems, and emergency lighting integration.
Can you supply electrical drawings for permit applications?
Yes. We provide single-line diagrams, load calculations, and panel schedules required for commercial permit applications. For larger projects we coordinate with consulting electrical engineers as required.
Do you handle data, network, and low-voltage cabling for offices?
Yes. Cat6 and Cat6A structured cabling, server room buildouts, AP placement, conference-room AV, access control wiring, and security-camera infrastructure.
Are you bondable for larger commercial projects?
Yes. Line In Electric carries the insurance, WorkSafeBC clearance, and contractor standing required for bonded commercial work. We can supply documentation on request.
How are commercial electrical jobs priced?
Smaller TI and service work is fixed-price after a site visit. Larger commercial jobs are typically quoted line-item with material and labour broken out. Time-and-materials is available for diagnostic and unscoped maintenance work.
