Electrical Works That Fit Into Your Project

When electrical work is part of a renovation project, timing matters as much as the installation itself.

Our role as an electrical subcontractor is to complete the electrical scope in the right sequence while coordinating with the main project team.

Electrical works sit around

Who We Work With

The service is built for teams that already manage the overall project.

Interior Design Firms

If your team handles the design and the client relationship, we support the electrical portion — working from your approved layout and coordinating points, wiring routes, switches and lighting connections.

Renovation Contractors

Electrical installation is often one part of a wider renovation package. We take responsibility for the electrical scope while your team manages the other trades.

Commercial Fit-Out Teams

Office, retail and other fit-outs need coordinated installation around partitions, ceilings, workstations, lighting and equipment, planned to the project programme and site conditions.

Main Contractors

Where electrical works form part of a larger construction or renovation package, we work as the electrical subcontractor for the agreed scope.

What Electrical Subcontracting Can Cover

The exact scope is confirmed from the project drawings, site conditions and agreed quotation.

Wiring & Circuit Installation

Wiring for lighting, power and dedicated equipment circuits, installed according to the project requirements.

Power Points & Sockets

New electrical points installed from the approved layout. For projects with many outlets, see power point installation.

Lighting Electrical Works

Electrical connections for lighting points, switches and related circuits, coordinated with the lighting layout.

Distribution Board Works

Existing DBs may need modification, replacement or upgrading. See DB box upgrade.

Concealed Wiring & Trunking

Depending on the site and renovation stage, wiring runs through concealed spaces, conduit or surface trunking. See concealed wiring.

Electrical Loading

Where added equipment increases demand on the existing supply, loading should be assessed before installation. See loading upgrade.

Subcontracting for Renovation Projects

Electrical work should be coordinated with the renovation sequence from the beginning.

Power points behind a cabinet need to be positioned before carpentry closes the area. Concealed wiring needs to be completed before walls and ceilings are finished. Lighting connections need to correspond with the final ceiling and lighting plan. Early coordination reduces situations where completed finishes have to be reopened because a point was missed.

Working From Drawings and Layouts

The electrical scope should be based on the latest approved layout available to the project team. Depending on the project, this may include:

If the layout changes during renovation, the electrical scope is reviewed before installation continues.

Coordination With Other Trades

Electrical works rarely happen in isolation on a renovation project.

Carpentry

Socket locations, appliance points and concealed wiring should be completed before cabinets or fixed furniture close the relevant areas.

False Ceilings

Lighting points and electrical routes need to be coordinated before ceiling works are completed.

Air-Conditioning

Electrical requirements for air-conditioning equipment are considered alongside the overall circuit arrangement.

Plumbing & Other Services

Where multiple services share the same areas, routing is coordinated to reduce clashes during installation.

Painting & Finishing

Electrical installation is scheduled so unnecessary damage to completed finishes is avoided.

Commercial and Office Fit-Out Electrical Works

For office and commercial projects, the electrical scope is planned around workstations, meeting rooms, pantry areas and equipment — then sequenced with partitions and ceilings.

For a project specifically focused on an office fit-out, see office electrical fit-out. For broader requirements, see commercial rewiring.

Typical commercial scope

Electrical Subcontracting for Residential Renovation

Although this page is focused on B2B project work, renovation contractors often need an electrical subcontractor for residential jobs too.

For property-specific rewiring requirements, use the relevant residential service page rather than treating every renovation as the same electrical scope — HDB, condo or landed.

Residential project work

Managing Changes During a Project

Renovation projects change after work begins. A client may move a wall, change the kitchen layout, add appliances or modify the lighting plan — and the electrical scope changes with it.

Before carrying out additional work, the revised requirement is confirmed so the scope stays clear instead of letting changes accumulate unnoticed.

The project team should know
