The Northern Quarter has a character all of its own. Former textile warehouses now house loft apartments, creative studios, record shops, cafés and late-night bars.
Those buildings were designed for a very different era of power use. Our electricians in Northern Quarter help owners, tenants and businesses bring older installations up to current standards. GreenerAmps has more than 13 years of experience, NICEIC registration and a fully in-house team.

Solar Power and Fire Safety for Older Buildings
Can Older Buildings Use Solar Power?
Flat roofs on some converted warehouses and commercial units can suit solar panels. Our solar PV installation service starts with a survey of the roof structure, orientation and shading to see whether solar makes financial sense.
Much of the area sits within conservation areas, so we check planning rules first.
Why Does Fire Alarm Installation Matter Here?
Mixed-use buildings carry extra risk because flats often sit above bars and shops. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 places duties on whoever controls non-domestic premises, including shared areas of residential blocks.
As a fire alarm installation company, we design, install and commission systems to BS 5839 and provide the paperwork your fire risk assessment needs.

Talk to Our Team
Can you add more sockets to a loft apartment?
Extra sockets are usually straightforward, even in apartments with exposed brick or concrete. We can use neat surface trunking or chase cables into the wall where the structure allows.
Do bars and restaurants need emergency lighting?
Most commercial premises need emergency lighting to help people leave safely if the power fails. The fire risk assessment for the building should confirm exactly what is required.
How do I know if my fuse board needs replacing?
Warning signs include rewireable fuses, no RCD protection, scorch marks or a plastic enclosure in an older installation. An electrician can inspect the board and advise whether an upgrade is needed.
Is solar PV possible on a flat roof?
Flat roofs can work well when panels are mounted on angled frames. A structural and shading survey confirms whether the roof can take the extra load.
What does a fire alarm commissioning certificate show?
The certificate confirms the system was installed and tested to the relevant part of BS 5839. Keep it with your fire safety records for inspections and insurers.
