COMMERCIAL Electrical services

The buildings people work and shop in have to look right, run efficiently, and stay open for business.

SBE delivers the electrical engineering behind offices, retail units, and mixed-use developments across Ireland, for developers, main contractors, and the businesses that occupy them. With more than 40 years of commercial experience, we bring the two things these projects live or die on: a finish fit for a client-facing space, and the programme certainty to hand it over on time.

What we do for commercial projects

We design and install the full electrical package for commercial buildings, tailored to how the space will be used.



Power distribution and containment sized for the building and ready for future tenants and change.


Energy-efficient lighting and controls, with LED and presence or daylight sensors that cut running costs and lift the space.

Small power and floor boxes for workstations, tills, and everything your people plug in.

Data and communications containment coordinated cleanly with your IT and the other trades.

Emergency lighting and life-safety systems that keep the building safe and compliant.

EV charging and energy management, with metering and controls to keep running costs down and sustainability credentials up.

Delivered around your programme and your building.

Commercial projects run to tight deadlines, and a missed date can mean a delayed letting or a tenant left waiting. We plan our work to hit those handover and fit-out dates, and we hold to them.

Just as often, the work happens in a building that is already trading or occupied. We are set up to work cleanly around live operations, out of hours where needed, so an office keeps functioning and a shop keeps selling while the work goes on around them. And because the space is client-facing, we deliver a finish that reflects well on the building and its owner.

One partner, from design to maintenance.

Because SBE is a turnkey contractor, everything your commercial project needs comes from one team. Our in-house engineers handle the electrical services engineering, we can take the whole package on a single design and build contract, and once the building is live we keep it that way with electrical testing and maintenance.

One point of responsibility, start to finish.

Why SBE for Commercial

Four decades of commercial projects across Ireland means we understand what developers, contractors, and occupiers each need from an electrical installation. You get in-house engineering rather than outsourced design, value engineering that keeps the project on budget, and a safety-first approach backed by our ISO 45001 accredited standards.
