We work with building owners, facility managers, project managers, and tenants who need a contractor they can hand a scope to and trust the job will be done correctly, documented properly, and on time. If that’s what you need, call us on 1300 365 700 and let’s talk through your project.

What We Do for Commercial Clients on the Gold Coast
Our Gold Coast commercial electrical work spans a broad range of building types and project sizes. We’re not a one-trade fit-out crew — our background is in industrial automation and complex electrical systems, which means we bring that technical depth to every commercial project we take on. Below is the kind of scope we typically handle in the region.
Office Electrical
Office electrical work on the Gold Coast ranges from tenancy fit-outs in Robina and Broadbeach to full floor refurbishments in Southport and Bundall. A typical office scope includes switchboard upgrades, power circuit installation for workstations and server rooms, data and communications rough-in (in coordination with your ICT contractor), and LED lighting installation compliant with AS/NZS 3000 and the relevant energy efficiency requirements under the National Construction Code.
We coordinate with builders, project managers, and certifiers throughout the process. Our documentation — including as-built drawings, test results, and compliance certificates — is delivered as part of the job, not as an afterthought.
Retail Electrical
Retail tenancy electrical work on the Gold Coast — whether it’s a strip shop in Varsity Lakes, a centre tenancy at Pacific Fair, or a standalone premises in Tweed Heads — involves working within tight programme constraints and around existing shopfitters and trades. We understand that retail has hard deadlines, and we schedule accordingly.
Typical retail electrical scope includes three-phase power for kitchen or HVAC equipment, general power and lighting circuits, shop-front and display lighting, POS and data outlets, and exit and emergency lighting systems tested and certified to AS/NZS 2293.
Lighting Upgrades
Lighting upgrades are one of the most cost-effective electrical projects a commercial building owner or tenant can undertake. Replacing fluorescent or metal halide fittings with quality LED alternatives typically reduces lighting energy consumption by 50–70%, reduces maintenance costs, and improves lux levels and colour rendering across the space.
We assess your existing installation, specify appropriate LED luminaires, and carry out the upgrade with minimal disruption to your operations. Where applicable, we can integrate DALI controls, occupancy sensing, and daylight harvesting to maximise your energy savings. All lighting installations are designed and installed to meet the requirements of AS/NZS 3000 and the relevant lux standards for your building type.
Switchboard Upgrades and Compliance
An ageing or non-compliant switchboard is a liability — both operationally and from a safety standpoint. We inspect, upgrade, and replace commercial switchboards throughout the Gold Coast and Northern NSW region, installing RCDs, surge protection devices, and metering in accordance with AS/NZS 3000. If you’re preparing a building for sale, lease, or a major fit-out, a switchboard inspection and upgrade is often the first step.
Industrial and Automation Work for Gold Coast Businesses
Our background sets us apart for Gold Coast businesses that have an industrial or manufacturing component. If your site includes conveyor systems, process equipment, motor control centres, PLC-controlled machinery, or variable speed drives, we have the experience to handle that work to the same standard as your commercial electrical. You deal with one contractor rather than splitting the scope across multiple trades.

- Building owners managing commercial properties in the Gold Coast CBD, Southport, Robina, and Broadbeach

What to Expect When You Work With Hexar Solutions
We don’t turn up and make it up as we go. Before any work starts, we scope the job properly, provide a written quotation, and agree on a programme. During the job, your contact is a licensed electrician or project manager who knows the scope — not a call centre. When the job is complete, you receive test certificates, as-built documentation, and any compliance certificates required for your building certifier or landlord.
Our ISO 9001 certification isn’t a logo on a letterhead — it means we have documented procedures for quality control, and your project is managed within that framework. As a member of the National Electrical and Communications Association (NECA), we work to industry standards of professionalism and conduct.
To talk through your project, call us on 1300 365 700. We’re based in Brisbane (Wynnum) and regularly service the Gold Coast and Northern NSW region.
Frequently Asked Questions — Commercial Electrical on the Gold Coast
Are you licensed to do commercial electrical work in Queensland and New South Wales?
Yes. Hexar Solutions holds electrical contractor licences in both Queensland and New South Wales, as well as Victoria, South Australia, and Western Australia. This means we can take on commercial electrical projects that span the Gold Coast–Tweed Heads border without you needing to engage separate contractors in each state. All work is carried out by licensed electricians in accordance with AS/NZS 3000 and the relevant state regulatory requirements.
What does a commercial electrical fit-out typically involve?
A commercial fit-out usually begins with a review of the tenancy’s existing electrical supply and switchboard capacity. From there, we install power circuits for equipment and workstations, lighting circuits and luminaires, exit and emergency lighting, and any specialised circuits required for HVAC, kitchen equipment, or AV systems. The scope varies significantly between office, retail, and industrial tenancies. We provide a detailed quotation based on your specific plans and requirements before any work commences.
How long does a commercial lighting upgrade take?
It depends on the size of the building and the number of fittings involved. A single-tenancy office or retail space can typically be completed in one to three days, often after hours to avoid disrupting your business. Larger buildings or multi-tenancy upgrades are staged across nights or weekends. We’ll give you a realistic programme as part of the quotation process so you can plan around the work.
Do you provide test certificates and compliance documentation?
Yes, always. Test and inspection certificates are issued for all new electrical installations in accordance with AS/NZS 3000. Where required by your building certifier, landlord, or project documentation, we provide compliance certificates and as-built drawings. This documentation is included in the scope — it’s not an additional charge.
Can you work after hours or on weekends to avoid business disruption?
Yes. For retail and hospitality clients especially, after-hours and weekend work is standard. We programme this into the project from the beginning so there are no surprises on either side. After-hours rates apply and will be clearly stated in your quotation.
What areas do you service from the Gold Coast?
We service the full Gold Coast local government area, including Southport, Broadbeach, Robina, Varsity Lakes, Coomera, and the Gold Coast hinterland. We also regularly work in Tweed Heads, Tweed Heads South, Murwillumbah, and other parts of Northern NSW close to the Queensland border. For projects outside this immediate area, call us on 1300 365 700 and we’ll advise on coverage and mobilisation costs.
