Commercial Tenant Improvement

Yes. TI is one of our largest commercial categories — office buildouts, retail buildouts, restaurant kitchens, medical and dental clinics, salons, fitness studios, and mixed-use ground floors.

Yes. Most of our TI work is GC-coordinated. We staff to the GC schedule, attend coordination meetings, and adjust manpower for crunch periods. We have run TI projects from 800 sq ft kiosks to 30,000 sq ft offices.

Yes. Single-line diagrams, panel schedules, lighting and power plans, and load calculations as required by Technical Safety BC and the municipality. For larger projects we coordinate with consulting electrical engineers as required.

Yes. Evening, weekend, and overnight work is routine for TI in occupied buildings. Off-hours rates apply but the cost is usually less than the lost-business cost of daytime closure.

A 1,000–2,000 sq ft retail buildout from demolition to close is typically 3–6 weeks of electrical scope spread across the GC schedule. Restaurant TI with kitchen power runs longer (6–12 weeks of electrical scope).

Yes. Three-phase power for ovens and walk-ins, kitchen ventilation hood interlocks, dishwasher feeders, lighting per code, and emergency lighting. Health-authority and BC Electrical Code compliance throughout.

Yes. Dedicated circuits for medical and dental equipment, isolated power systems where required, hospital-grade outlets, examination-room lighting, X-ray room shielding considerations, and IT/AV cabling.

Office TI is bread-and-butter — open-plan and private-office wiring, conference room AV power and data, floor boxes, lighting design (often with daylight harvesting), HVAC interlocks, and access control wiring.

Yes. We work both tenant-side and landlord-side: base-building service upgrades, life-safety systems, common-area lighting, parking-lot lighting, and EV charger infrastructure for multi-tenant buildings.

Yes — pulls and conduit for AV integrators, security/access-control vendors, and IT cabling contractors. We coordinate sequencing to minimize trade conflicts.

Yes. Every TI project we do is permitted under our FSR licence. We schedule inspections, walk the inspector through, and provide closed permit documentation at handover.

Yes. Many TIs are phased — landlord delivers shell, tenant builds out in phases. We can quote phase-by-phase and re-engage as scope unlocks.

Yes. Final panel schedules, circuit maps, lighting layouts, and low-voltage cabling maps in a digital and printed package at handover. Required by some commercial leases and useful for future tenants.

Smaller TIs (under ~$50K electrical scope): fixed-price after a site visit and drawings review. Larger TIs: line-item quotes with material and labour broken out, plus an allowance schedule for owner/tenant changes.

Both. We can supply at trade pricing or install owner-supplied fixtures and devices. Most TI projects are mixed: we supply standard devices and emergency lighting; owner/designer supplies feature lighting.
