Office & Retail Fit-Out FAQs
Commercial fit-out costs vary considerably depending on the size and complexity of the premises, the specification, and the extent of the electrical package. A small single-unit retail fit-out might come in between €3,000 and €8,000. A larger multi-room office fit-out will typically be significantly more. We provide a detailed fixed-price quotation after a free site survey — there’s no meaningful way to estimate without seeing the premises.
Yes. Under Irish regulations, all commercial electrical installations must be carried out by a RECI-registered electrical contractor and certified on completion. The certificate is required for building control sign-off, insurance, and any future sale or change of use of the property. We issue a full electrical installation certificate on completion of every commercial job.
Yes — programme delivery is a core part of our commercial service. We schedule first-fix around your framing and boarding programme, and second-fix to align with fit-out completion. We communicate directly with your main contractor or project manager and flag any issues early. We don’t let electrical works hold up the project.
We install all cable containment (conduit, trunking, cable trays) for data and communications cabling during first-fix. For structured cabling (Cat6, fibre, etc.), we work alongside your IT contractor and can recommend reliable Cork-based data cabling contractors if needed.
First-fix is the work done before the walls and ceilings are boarded and plastered — all the cable runs, back-boxes, consumer unit position, and containment. Second-fix is the work carried out after plastering and decoration — fitting sockets, switches, light fittings, and commissioning all circuits. Both stages must be completed correctly and the second-fix work tested and certified before handover.
Yes — we work on retail units across Cork city centre, including units in the Merchant’s Quay, Grand Parade, and Patrick Street areas. We’re experienced in the access and logistics requirements of city centre fit-outs and can work around opening hours and delivery restrictions.
Yes — we can quote for a specific portion of a fit-out if that’s what you need. We provide itemised quotations so you know exactly what’s covered. Some fit-out teams have an existing electrician for the power works and want a specialist for lighting, or vice versa. We’re flexible.
A single-unit retail fit-out typically takes 2–4 days for first-fix and 1–2 days for second-fix and commissioning. A larger office fit-out can take 2–4 weeks spread across the construction programme. We’ll give you a realistic timeline as part of the quotation process.
