About this service
Commercial tenant improvements are the core of our work: retail stores, offices, restaurants and mixed-use main floors in strip centres, malls and standalone buildings across Alberta.
We start from the architect's or designer's layout and the landlord's design criteria, confirm the available service at the base building panel, then lay out lighting, receptacles and equipment circuits around how the space will actually be used. Kitchen equipment, signage, point-of-sale and mechanical units are circuited from the real equipment schedule, not allowances.
Every set includes panel schedules, load calculations and the NECB lighting compliance permit offices ask for, so the permit goes in complete and the general contractor can price and build from it without guesswork.
What we design
Tenant improvements live and die by the permit date. We design the full electrical scope for retail, office, restaurant and mixed-use spaces, coordinate it with the landlord's base building and your mechanical engineer, and issue stamped drawings in 48 hours.

Commercial tenant improvements in Edmonton
Most of our commercial work is tenant improvement drawings in Edmonton, St. Albert, Sherwood Park and Spruce Grove: restaurants, retail bays, offices and service businesses in strip centres and malls. We prepare the electrical set the City of Edmonton and surrounding municipalities expect for a building permit, sealed by a Professional Engineer registered with APEGA.
Because we also work alongside electrical contractors in the field, our drawings are built to be priced and installed without guesswork: real equipment circuits, base-building capacity confirmed with the landlord, and panel schedules the electrician can work from. Send your architectural layout and equipment list and we will confirm fee and timing the same business day, with stamped drawings typically issued within 48 hours of a complete package.
We provide electrical engineering services in Edmonton, St. Albert, Sherwood Park, Spruce Grove, Stony Plain, Leduc, Beaumont and Fort Saskatchewan, and take on projects anywhere in Alberta. Start a project or call 780-919-9696.
