Landlords, facilities managers and tenants in Tembisa all call us for the same reason — commercial installations are not domestic installations. Three-phase supplies, distribution boards feeding multiple tenants, emergency lighting and statutory compliance all have to be handled by people who do this daily.
Tembisa is one of Gauteng’s largest townships — dense original housing, extensive backroom rental accommodation and a substantial informal and small-business economy. That mix is what makes the electrical work here so varied — and why we keep teams working this area rather than sending someone across Gauteng.
Because Tembisa falls under City of Ekurhuleni and is supplied by Eskom and Ekurhuleni Energy, anything that touches the connection itself follows their process and their timelines. We work to those rather than promising you turnaround times that are not ours to give.

What we see in Tembisa
Compliance that someone will eventually ask for
Landlords, insurers and lease renewals in Tembisa all eventually ask the same question: where is the current Certificate of Compliance, and does it cover the work the tenant did? Getting that documented while the premises are trading normally is considerably cheaper than assembling it under pressure after an incident.
Downtime is the real cost
On the industrial sites we work on in Tembisa, the repair is almost never the expensive part — the stopped line is. That shapes how we work: likely spares on the vehicle, diagnosis before disassembly, and a clear call on whether to get you running now and do the permanent fix in a planned window.
One fault, several unhappy neighbours
In blocks around Tembisa a single failing appliance can take out a shared earth leakage unit and put several units in the dark. Isolating that means testing unit by unit rather than guessing, and it is far quicker when the building has a current circuit schedule — which is something we leave behind whenever we work on a common-property board.

Commercial Electrician in Tembisa — your questions answered
Can you work after hours so we do not lose trade?
Yes — most of our commercial work in Tembisa is done outside trading hours. We plan shutdowns with you, isolate only what is necessary and hand back a working installation before you open.
Do you take on maintenance contracts?
We do. A typical contract covers scheduled inspections, board servicing, emergency lighting tests, a priority response time and a documented fault history — which makes budgeting and insurance conversations a lot easier.
Can you handle three-phase supplies?
Yes. Three-phase distribution, load balancing, motor circuits and phase-failure diagnosis are routine commercial and industrial work for us.
Do you provide documentation for our insurers?
Yes. You get a Certificate of Compliance where one is required, plus test results and circuit schedules. Insurers and landlords typically ask for these after a claim or at lease renewal.
Who is responsible for the COC — landlord or tenant?
The user or lessor of the installation carries the obligation under the Electrical Installation Regulations, but leases often shift responsibility for tenant-installed work onto the tenant. We inspect what is there and certify what we can; where the split is unclear we set it out in writing so both parties can see it.
Do you work in complexes and estates in Tembisa?
Regularly. We deal with body corporates, managing agents and estate security as a matter of routine, including providing insurance details and worker details in advance where access rules require it.
