Protect your business, staff, and equipment with a proactive electrical maintenance plan. At Solid Electrics, we help Southampton businesses stay safe, compliant, and operational.

Electrical Maintenance is Critical for Every Southampton Business

No matter the industry—retail, hospitality, offices, healthcare, or industrial units—electricity is at the core of every operation. Yet it’s often neglected until something goes wrong. A reliable electrical maintenance plan ensures your business runs smoothly, safely, and within legal requirements.

At Solid Electrics, we provide planned and reactive maintenance for local businesses across Southampton, helping owners avoid costly downtime and unexpected repairs.

What Is an Electrical Maintenance Plan?

An electrical maintenance plan is a scheduled programme of inspections, testing, servicing, and minor repairs tailored to your business premises. It’s designed to:

  • Identify faults before they become critical

  • Extend the life of electrical systems and appliances

  • Keep your business legally compliant

  • Protect staff, customers, and stock

  • Reduce emergency call-outs and insurance risks

A good plan goes beyond box-ticking—it provides real-world protection for your operations.

Why Your Business Can’t Afford to Go Without One

Running without a maintenance plan leaves your business vulnerable. From overloaded circuits and ageing distribution boards to unsafe emergency lighting or non-functional fire alarms, problems can arise silently—until it’s too late.

Common risks we identify during routine visits include:

  • Damaged or overheating sockets

  • Poorly maintained consumer units

  • Loose connections inside commercial lighting

  • Expired emergency lighting batteries

  • Uninspected hardwired appliances

  • Tripping circuits affecting POS systems or refrigeration

Don’t wait for equipment to fail—prevent issues before they disrupt your business.

Tailored Support for Southampton Businesses

We work with a wide range of local businesses and organisations, including:

  • Offices and co-working spaces

  • Cafés, restaurants, and hospitality venues

  • Shops and retail units

  • Clinics, dentists, and health centres

  • Schools and small industrial units

Each business has different needs. We tailor maintenance schedules to your equipment, usage, opening hours, and compliance requirements—whether you need quarterly checks, annual EICRs, or regular site visits.

Solid Electrics is NAPIT registered, delivering compliant electrical maintenance and inspection services for Southampton businesses.

Legal Compliance – It’s Not Optional

As a business owner, you’re legally responsible for the electrical safety of your premises under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. Many insurers now require documented evidence of routine inspection and testing. We help you stay compliant with:

  • Fixed Wire Testing (EICRs)

  • Emergency lighting tests

  • Fault reporting logs

  • Consumer unit inspections

  • Load testing and thermal imaging (on request)

Failure to maintain your system could invalidate your insurance or lead to legal consequences in the event of an accident.

Our Process: Simple, Structured, and Flexible

We’ll advise what your premises needs, how often, and the best time to carry it out to avoid disrupting your team or customers.

Ongoing Support That Works With Your Business

We’re based in Bitterne and support businesses across the city, including:

  • Southampton city centre

  • Shirley and Millbrook

  • Woolston and Itchen

  • Eastleigh

  • Hedge End

  • Netley and Hamble

  • Totton and Marchwood

  • Chandler’s Ford

You’ll get consistent service, clear communication, and reminders when your next inspection is due.

Get Ahead of Problems – Protect Your Business Today
