Commercial Electrical Services
Commercial Electricians in Vernon, BC
From electrical repairs and lighting upgrades to new construction and safety inspections, Mass Contracting provides commercial electrical services built around your property, operations and project requirements.
Our team works with business owners, property managers and contractors throughout Vernon and the North Okanagan.
Electrical Work That Supports Your Business
Commercial electrical work needs to account for more than the installation itself. The building may need to remain operational, employees or customers may be using the space and the electrical scope may need to align with construction schedules, equipment requirements and other trades.
Mass Contracting takes the time to understand how the property is used and what the electrical work needs to accomplish. Whether the project begins with an unexpected problem, a planned improvement or a new commercial build, we provide practical recommendations and a clear path forward.
Commercial Electrical Services
Mass Contracting provides electrical repairs, installations, upgrades and inspections for commercial properties throughout Vernon and the surrounding North Okanagan.
Commercial Service and Repairs
Electrical problems can interrupt operations, affect equipment and create uncertainty for the people responsible for the building.
Mass Contracting troubleshoots commercial electrical concerns, identifies the cause and completes the appropriate repair. We also install and modify circuits, receptacles, switches and electrical connections as business needs change.
New Construction Electrical
Bring electrical planning into your commercial construction project from the beginning.
Mass Contracting works with owners, builders and project teams to plan and install electrical systems for new commercial buildings, additions and substantial improvements. The work is coordinated with the project schedule, building plans, equipment requirements and other trades.
Commercial Lighting Upgrades
Improve the visibility, function and efficiency of your commercial space with updated lighting and controls.
Mass Contracting upgrades interior and exterior lighting for offices, retail spaces, service areas, common areas and other commercial environments. The existing system, intended use and lighting requirements are reviewed before the new installation is planned. Commercial lighting upgrades may also qualify for current BC Hydro energy-saving incentives, depending on the business and project.
Commercial Electrical Safety Inspections
An electrical inspection can provide valuable information before a property purchase, lease, renovation or planned equipment installation.
Mass Contracting reviews accessible electrical equipment and visible conditions to identify concerns that may require repair, upgrading or further investigation. The findings are explained clearly so owners and property representatives can determine the appropriate next steps.
Electrical Work Across Your Commercial Property
A commercial electrical system supports lighting, equipment, work areas, customer spaces and the day-to-day operation of the building. Depending on the project, the work may involve one specific area or several connected parts of the electrical system.
New Installation, Upgrade or Repair?
Some commercial projects begin with an electrical problem that needs to be diagnosed. Others involve updating older equipment, adding capacity or installing electrical systems for a new space.
Mass Contracting reviews the existing conditions, intended use and project requirements before recommending whether the work should involve a repair, alteration, replacement or new installation.
Project Work or Ongoing Maintenance?
A renovation, lighting upgrade or new construction project has a defined scope and intended result. Commercial maintenance focuses on keeping an existing building operating reliably and addressing concerns as they develop.
Mass Contracting provides both project-based commercial electrical services and ongoing support through its commercial building maintenance services.

A Hands-On Approach to Commercial Electrical Work
Commercial electrical projects often involve schedules, active workspaces, equipment requirements and several people who need to remain informed.
Mass Contracting stays closely involved throughout the review, planning and completion of the work. Business owners, property representatives and contractors receive clear communication about what is required, what may affect the project and how the electrical scope fits into the larger needs of the property.

Early involvement helps identify panel capacity, circuit requirements, lighting needs and coordination issues before they cause changes or delays later in the project.
The project schedule can often be planned around access requirements, operating hours and the effect the work may have on employees, tenants or customers.
Some electrical work may require an area to be cleared or power to be temporarily disconnected. Mass Contracting discusses these requirements during planning so the business can prepare and unnecessary disruption can be reduced.
