Our background

Where our reputation was built.

RED Works grew from a background in electrical contracting and energy — and that's where our reputation was earned. Clients trusted the quality of that work, and over time trusted us to introduce and manage other specialist contractors on their behalf. That's how our wider service offering developed: not by expanding for expansion's sake, but because clients wanted one accountable team to coordinate more of their building.

Where we started

Electrical Contracting

From routine testing and inspection to full rewires, new installations and complex electrical infrastructure — our electrical team keeps your building safe, compliant and operational.

We work across commercial, industrial and mixed-use properties, with NICEIC accreditation underpinning every installation and inspection we carry out.

Whether you need a single EICR or a fully programmed electrical upgrade across a portfolio — we design the programme, fix the price and deliver to it.

Where our reputation grew

Energy & Renewables

We help commercial clients reduce consumption, cut costs and meet sustainability targets. Our energy team assesses, designs and installs — taking you from where you are to where you need to be.

From a detailed energy audit to a full solar PV and battery storage installation, we make building efficiency measurable and renewable energy straightforward.

We work to fixed programmes with clear projected savings — so you know the cost of the work and the return before we start.

How we work

Work with us
your way.

A single callout, a fixed-programme project or a fully managed FM contract — our services are structured around how you actually need them. Start with one job. Build from there.

01

One-Off Job

Need something fixed, tested or installed? Call us. No retainer, no minimum spend, no obligation. We quote, we do the work, we leave the site tidy.

EICRs, reactive fault finding, single installations, emergency callouts.

02

Project Basis

Larger piece of work, defined scope? We'll build a fixed programme — agreed timeline, fixed price, progress tracked throughout. Trades coordinated, single point of contact, done when it's done.

Refurbishments, M&E upgrades, multi-trade fit-outs, compliance remediation programmes.

03

Managed FM Programme

Want us to look after the whole building? We build a planned maintenance schedule around your property, budget and compliance requirements — and handle the reactive work too.

PPM contracts, asset management, multi-site programmes, compliance scheduling.

Our approach

Planned & reactive — we cover both.

Planned Maintenance

Regular, scheduled maintenance keeps your building compliant, reduces the risk of unexpected failures and extends the life of your assets. We build fixed programmes around your property, your budget and your operational requirements.

  • Annual & periodic inspection programmes
  • Compliance scheduling & documentation
  • Asset register management
  • PPM contracts across all disciplines

Reactive Works

When something goes wrong, you need a team that can respond quickly and fix it properly. Our reactive service covers urgent callouts, fault diagnosis and repairs — with clear communication and fixed-price quotes throughout.

  • Rapid response callouts
  • Fault finding & diagnostics
  • Emergency repairs
  • Out-of-hours cover available

RED Works Portal

Your jobs.
Your contractors.
Your audit trail.

Building managers are accountable for compliance. When an auditor asks for evidence, or an insurer requests certificates — the RED Works Portal is the answer.

Clients are provided access to a dedicated workspace where every job is logged, every contractor's credentials are on record, and every sign-off is documented and ready to present. Access is by invitation — we configure your workspace before the first job starts.

Audit-ready documentation

Every inspection, certificate and sign-off logged and dated. When the auditor arrives, open the portal — everything they need is already there.

Contractor credentials on record

Accreditations, insurance and certifications stored alongside every job record. Every contractor we deploy is traceable and evidenced.

Insurance compliance

Current certificates, inspection records and compliance documentation always accessible. What your insurer asks for, ready when they ask.

Access by invitation — bespoke workspace per client

What clients say

In their words.

Responsive, professional and the work was done to a good standard. The paperwork was all in order on completion — which matters when you're managing compliance across a portfolio.

Operations Manager

Commercial property group

They turned up when they said they would, did what they said they'd do and left the site clean. For reactive work that's not always a given — RED Works made it straightforward.

Facilities Manager

Multi-site retail operator

Good communication from start to finish. We were kept informed at every stage and the handover documentation was thorough. A team we'd be comfortable recommending.

Head of Estates

Healthcare trust

Let's talk about your building.

Tell us what you need — a single job, a compliance programme or full FM management — and we'll put a proposal together.
