As one of the head sparkies at Maines Electrical, I’ve seen how crucial reliable electrical services are for businesses across Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Electrical systems are the backbone of your operations, and having a trusted commercial electrician can make all the difference.
So, what exactly can a commercial electrician do for your business? Let’s explore this together, sharing insights and real-world experiences to help you understand the value a professional electrical service brings.
What Is a Commercial Electrician and Why Do You Need One?
A commercial electrician specialises in handling electrical systems for businesses, offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and warehouses. Unlike residential electricians, we deal with large-scale, high-load systems that require more expertise and precision.
At Maines Electrical, our team of skilled electricians ensures your business remains operational, compliant, and safe. Whether it’s setting up a new office or upgrading an old switchboard, we’re here to help you every step of the way.
Common Services Offered by Commercial Electricians
1. Office Fit-Outs and New Installations
Setting up a new office space? You’ll need a reliable electrical system from the ground up. At Maines Electrical, we handle full office fit-outs, including lighting, power outlets, data cabling, and more. Our team ensures everything is installed correctly, giving your business a strong foundation.
Whether you’re in Brisbane or the Gold Coast, we tailor our services to suit your office needs. Proper planning and installation mean fewer disruptions and a workspace that supports productivity.
2. Switchboard Upgrades
Old or faulty switchboards can pose serious risks. For businesses, downtime caused by electrical faults can mean lost revenue. Our team provides switchboard upgrades to modernise your electrical systems, ensuring safety and efficiency.
Upgrading your switchboard not only enhances performance but also ensures compliance with current electrical standards.
3. Commercial Lighting Solutions
Lighting is more than just illumination – it affects productivity, safety, and energy efficiency. We offer customised lighting solutions for businesses, including:
- LED upgrades
- Security lighting
- Emergency and exit lighting
- Task and ambient lighting
Switching to energy-efficient lighting reduces your power bills and minimises maintenance costs.

4. Emergency Electrical Repairs
Electrical emergencies don’t follow a 9-to-5 schedule. A sudden fault or outage can bring your business to a standstill. Our team of Brisbane electricians offers 24/7 emergency repairs to get you back on track quickly.
From power failures to faulty wiring, we respond promptly to minimise disruption. We understand that time is money, and our goal is to restore normal operations as soon as possible.
5. Data Cabling and Networking

One morning, a café in Brisbane faced a complete power outage just before opening. We dispatched a team immediately, identifying a faulty circuit. Within an hour, power was restored, and the café opened on time, avoiding revenue loss.
