DR Electrical is a commercial and industrial electrical contractor based in Birkenhead. Three-phase installs, statutory testing, LED schemes and full fit-out — for sites, units, offices and estates within 40 miles of CH41.
What we take on
We've narrowed the workload deliberately. These are the jobs we're set up for, priced for, and turn around without excuses.
Workplace and fleet charging for car parks, depots and staff bays. One fixed price covering the unit, the install and the certification — no surprise line items once we're on site.
Fixed wire testing and inspection for landlords, facilities teams and duty holders. Clear C1/C2/C3 coding, a schedule you can act on, and a remedials price with the report — not a fortnight later.
Designed, not just swapped. We work to lux levels for the space — warehouse, workshop, office or forecourt — then show you the load reduction before you commit to the spend.
First to second fix on new units, refurbs and change-of-use projects. Distribution, containment, power, data, machine supplies and final testing — programmed around the other trades on site.
Fixed price
A standard workplace install at a price you can put straight into a budget. Book a load assessment and we'll confirm it against your supply before any work is booked in.
Standard single-unit install. Multi-bay schemes, long cable runs and supply upgrades quoted separately.
Why contractors keep calling us back
Working specifically with commercial and industrial sites means you get a specialist service that understands your commercial needs — from shutdown windows and trading hours to compliance and certification.
Every job leaves with the paperwork it needs — test results, schedules and certificates your insurer, landlord or auditor will accept without a follow-up.
Evenings, weekends and phased shutdowns where trading can't stop. We plan the programme around your operation, not the other way round.
You get a written price with the scope spelled out. If something changes on site, you hear about it before it's done, not on the invoice.

Before you call
For EV chargers, yes — we're happy to install home charge points for domestic customers, with the same care and certification we bring to our commercial installs. The rest of our business is focused on commercial and industrial work, which is where our team, experience and accreditations are geared. If you're a homeowner thinking about an EV charger, just get in touch and we'll talk you through it.
It covers a standard single-unit workplace install — the charge point, the installation and the certification. We confirm it against your supply with a load assessment before anything is booked. Long cable runs, multiple bays or a supply upgrade are priced separately, and you'll know before we start.
It depends on the type of premises and its use — commonly every five years for most commercial buildings, more frequently for higher-risk environments and some industrial installations. Your insurer or landlord may set a shorter interval. Tell us the building type and we'll advise on the right cycle.
Usually, yes. We phase testing circuit by circuit and work evenings or weekends where trading can't be interrupted. We'll agree the programme with you before we book it in.
Yes — remedial works come priced alongside the report, so you can act on it straight away rather than waiting on a second quote.
