Hello World! Welcome Friends! Many people look for commercial electricians for their domestic electrical needs for better quality work. Now, the questions are:
- Should you hire a commercial electrician for residential work?
- Does their license allow them to do residential electric work?
- Can commercial electricians perform domestic work as effectively as residential electricians?
In this blog, we will answer all these questions and more.
Let’s dig in.
The Difference Between Domestic and Commercial Electrical Work
Even though both residential and commercial electricians work with electrical components, the scale and type of their jobs differ slightly.
A residential or domestic electrician is usually trained to do electrical work in residential houses. It includes installations, changing wires, fixing electrical components, testing, and repairing malfunctioning circuit boards of residential houses.
On the other hand, commercial electricians are trained to wire, repair, or install electrical components of commercial buildings, such as flats, restaurants, office buildings, etc.
Their job includes working with generators, installing circuit breakers, upgrading resistors, installing security alarms, and CCTV, and replacing faulty wires in commercial buildings.
As you can see, commercial electricians receive training to deal with more complex electrical structures than domestic ones.
The scale of the work and the professional skills are what make a residential and commercial electrician different.
The Benefits of Working with Commercial Electricians
1. Team Support
Commercial electricians usually have reliable support teams to back them up. Since many commercial electrical jobs are done on bigger scales than residential ones, the electricians need a team of qualified professionals to finish the work quickly.
While residential electricians can also take up commercial work, they might not have this level of team support.
So, if you need electrical maintenance or check-ups for larger buildings, hire commercial electricians to get the job done quickly.
2. Quality Assurance
Commercial electricians are professionals who take immense pride in what they do. Although any good electrician will do quality work, commercial electricians take quality assurance to the next level.
These professionals always carry active insurance policies and offer longer warranty periods.
If their work causes accidental damage to your property, their insurance will cover the repair cost. If you’re not happy with their work, they will either give you your money back or perform a new repair work free of cost.
3. Quick and Tidy Work that Respects Your Workplace or Home
You want your living or working place to be clean and tidy. And commercial electricians understand that. These professionals focus on doing their work quickly while keeping your property as safe and clean as they found it.
This way, you can focus on the work or relax as soon as the repair is done.
4. Transparent Pricing
Most commercial electricians have a transparent pricing system. So, after discussing your electrical needs, they will give you a clear and detailed quote.
This way, you will know exactly what you’re being charged for without distasteful surprises or unexpected costs.
Are Commercial Electricians Qualified Enough to Do Domestic Work?
Commercial electricians go through rigorous technical and hands-on training to solve complex electrical issues. It includes HVAC work, wiring, and electrical component installation and repair of commercial buildings on a larger scale.
They usually have more technical knowledge than the residential electricians. So, commercial electricians should be able to handle most domestic work without an issue.
Still, the issue here is the license requirement and the scale of work.
Commercial electricians might not be well-versed in all domestic appliances and standards. They simply received different kinds of training that focused on complex electrical issues of larger buildings like offices, malls, hotels, and restaurants.
So, if you just want to change light bulbs, repair sockets, or install simple domestic electrical appliances, hiring a domestic electrician will be more cost-effective.
However, if you need electrical work or repair on a larger scale, hiring their commercial counterparts is the way to go.
Final Words
Whether it’s domestic or commercial electrical work, commercial electricians can provide you with higher working standards and quality assurance.
On the other hand, for smaller residential work like AC installation or repair, you should hire domestic electricians.
Ultimately, you should make a decision based on your budget and the scale of work.
