If you’re looking for a commercial electrician in Brisbane who can handle more than a basic fit-out, Hexar Solutions has been delivering industrial-grade electrical work across Queensland for over 30 years. From office refurbishments in the CBD to retail lighting upgrades in Logan and power distribution work across Moreton Bay, we bring the same licensed, standards-compliant approach to every commercial project — no shortcuts, no guesswork.

Commercial Electrical Services Across Brisbane and South-East Queensland

Hexar Solutions operates as a licensed electrical contractor throughout Queensland, with our base in Wynnum putting us well-positioned to service Brisbane’s inner suburbs, the Redlands, Logan, Ipswich, and the Moreton Bay region. Whether you’re a property manager coordinating a multi-tenancy upgrade, a business owner fitting out a new retail space, or a facility manager responsible for a commercial building’s ongoing compliance, we work with your timeline and your operational requirements.

All electrical work is carried out in full compliance with AS/NZS 3000:2018 (Wiring Rules) — the Australian and New Zealand standard that governs the design, installation, and verification of electrical installations. This isn’t optional for us; it’s the baseline. Our ISO 9001 certification means we also operate under a documented quality management system, which matters when you need work completed to a consistent standard across multiple sites or stages.

What We Do for Commercial Clients in Brisbane

Our commercial electrical work in Brisbane spans a broad range of project types. Here’s what we typically deliver:

• Office electrical installations and fit-outs — power outlets, data and comms pathways, lighting, switchboard upgrades, and sub-metering for tenanted spaces
• Retail electrical — shopfront fit-outs, display lighting, point-of-sale power, refrigeration circuits, and signage wiring
• Commercial lighting upgrades — LED conversions, lighting control systems, emergency and exit lighting to AS/NZS 2293, occupancy-based controls
• Switchboard and distribution upgrades — replacing ageing boards, increasing capacity, installing metering and protection devices to current standards
• Power factor correction — reducing energy costs for sites with significant motor or HVAC loads
• Thermographic inspections and testing — identifying hotspots, connection failures, and overloaded circuits before they become problems
• Ongoing electrical maintenance — scheduled inspections, testing and tagging, fault response, and compliance reporting

If your project involves automation, machine control, or integration between building management systems and your electrical infrastructure, that’s where our background as an industrial contractor adds real value. We’re not a general trade business that dabbles in commercial work — electrical is all we do, and we’ve been doing it at an industrial level since the early 1990s.

What to Expect When You Engage Hexar Solutions

We know that commercial clients — especially those managing live business environments — need more than a tradie showing up with a quote. Here’s how a typical engagement works:

Initial Consultation

We start with a conversation — either on-site or by phone — to understand what you’re actually trying to achieve. That means asking about your operational hours, whether the space will be occupied during works, your energy goals, and any compliance requirements you’re already aware of. Call us on 1300 365 700 to talk through your project with someone who can give you a straight answer.

Scope and Quotation

Once we understand the project, we’ll provide a detailed written quote. This will include a breakdown of materials, labour, any required inspections or test certificates, and a realistic project timeline. We don’t pad quotes with contingencies and we don’t underquote to win jobs — you’ll get an accurate picture of what the work involves and what it costs.

Installation and Verification

Our licensed electricians carry out the work to the agreed scope. All installations are verified to AS/NZS 3000 and we provide the relevant documentation — test certificates, inspection records, and compliance declarations — as part of the completed handover. If your project requires a Certificate of Test or an Electrical Safety Certificate under Queensland’s electrical safety legislation, we handle that too.

Why Brisbane Businesses Work With Us

We’re not going to tell you we’re the best option for every commercial electrical job in Brisbane. What we can tell you is what makes us a practical choice for businesses that need reliable, compliant electrical work done properly:

• 30+ years in the industry — we’ve seen what goes wrong on commercial sites and we plan accordingly
• Licensed across QLD, NSW, VIC, SA, and WA — useful if you operate across multiple states and want a single contractor
• ISO 9001 certified — our quality management system means consistent documentation and processes, not just good intentions
• NECA member — we operate under the National Electrical and Communications Association’s code of conduct
• Based in Wynnum — genuinely local to Brisbane, not a business that flies crews in from interstate and calls it a Brisbane office
• Industrial background — we understand power quality, load management, and automation in ways that a purely residential or light commercial electrician may not

Commercial Lighting Upgrades in Brisbane

One of the more frequent requests we receive from Brisbane commercial clients is LED lighting upgrades. If your building is still running T8 fluorescent tubes, metal halide high bays, or older downlight systems, a properly scoped LED conversion will typically reduce your lighting energy consumption by 50–70%. More importantly, a well-designed lighting upgrade improves working conditions, reduces maintenance overhead, and can integrate with occupancy and daylight sensors to generate further savings.

We design and install lighting systems to comply with AS/NZS 1680 (interior lighting) and coordinate emergency lighting to AS/NZS 2293. We’re not a lighting supplier — we’re the contractor who specifies, installs, commissions, and tests the system so it actually performs as designed.

Office and Retail Electrical Fit-Outs

Commercial fit-outs require coordination with builders, hydraulic contractors, air conditioning trades, and often the building owner’s base build electrical system. We’re experienced working within that environment — reading base build drawings, coordinating with other trades, and managing our work so we don’t create problems that delay the broader project.

For retail spaces, we understand that fit-out timelines are often tight and there’s real money on the line if a tenancy can’t open on schedule. We plan our work around your critical path, and we communicate clearly when something changes. If you’ve had issues with trades going quiet or disappearing mid-project, that’s not how we operate.

To discuss a fit-out project, call us on 1300 365 700 — we can usually turn around a preliminary scope and budget within a few business days once we’ve reviewed your drawings.

Frequently Asked Questions — Commercial Electrical in Brisbane

Do you work in occupied commercial buildings?

Yes. Many of our Brisbane commercial projects are completed in live environments — offices that are operating, retail stores open to customers, or facilities running 24/7. We plan the work around your operational requirements, isolate only what’s necessary when it’s necessary, and communicate clearly about any temporary outages in advance. For time-sensitive shutdowns, we can work evenings or weekends.

What’s the difference between a commercial electrician and a residential electrician?

Licensing in Queensland covers both residential and commercial work under the same electrical licence, but the practical experience and capabilities differ significantly. Commercial electrical work typically involves three-phase power, larger switchboards, higher load calculations, more complex protection systems, and a need to coordinate with other trades on structured projects. A contractor who primarily does house wiring may be licensed to do commercial work but may not have the experience to do it well. Hexar Solutions works almost exclusively in commercial and industrial environments.

What Australian standards apply to commercial electrical installations?

The primary standard governing electrical installations in Australia is AS/NZS 3000:2018, commonly called the Wiring Rules. This covers the design, installation, and testing of electrical systems. Additional standards apply depending on the type of installation — for example, AS/NZS 2293 for emergency lighting systems, AS/NZS 1680 for interior lighting design, and various AS/NZS 61000-series standards for power quality and electromagnetic compatibility in commercial environments. All Hexar Solutions work is completed to the applicable standards and verified with the appropriate test documentation.

Do you provide compliance certificates and test documentation?

Yes. All electrical work requires verification testing to AS/NZS 3000, and we provide written test results and, where required, Certificates of Test and Electrical Safety Certificates under Queensland’s Electrical Safety Act. For clients who need to demonstrate compliance to building owners, insurers, or regulators, we provide clear documentation as part of every project handover.

How long does a commercial electrical fit-out typically take?

It varies considerably depending on the scope. A small office fit-out of 200–300m² might take three to five days of electrical work. A larger retail tenancy or multi-level office could be two to four weeks. Factors that affect timeline include existing infrastructure condition, whether a switchboard upgrade is required, the volume of new circuits, and coordination with other trades. We’ll give you a realistic timeline estimate when we quote — and we’ll flag early if something on site is likely to affect it.

Do you offer ongoing electrical maintenance contracts for commercial properties?

Yes. We work with property managers, facilities managers, and business owners across Brisbane on scheduled maintenance programs. This typically includes periodic inspections, thermographic scanning of switchboards and distribution equipment, testing and tagging, emergency lighting testing, and fault response services. Ongoing maintenance relationships mean we understand your site and can identify issues before they cause downtime or safety events. Contact us on 1300 365 700 to discuss a maintenance arrangement suited to your facility.
