    Pricing & Cost

    Foundation for a 100m² apartment ranges from 9,000 to 14,000 EGP depending on package and materials. Use our calculator for an accurate estimate.
    Finishing for a 100m² apartment ranges from 5,000 to 8,000 EGP depending on outlet count and chosen materials.
    Yes, our prices include materials, installation, and warranty unless otherwise specified. We itemize every line clearly in the quote.
    We accept cash and bank transfer. For larger projects, we may accept a down payment with the balance on completion.
    Yes, we arrange a site visit for load calculation and a detailed quote. Contact us via WhatsApp or call to schedule.
    The quote is fixed unless unexpected additional work is discovered. Any change requires your prior approval with a clear price.
    The dedicated circuit and charger installation ranges from 2,500 to 5,000 EGP plus the cost of the charger unit itself.
    A basic WiFi smart switch system starts from 1,500 EGP for one room and can reach 10,000 EGP for a full apartment.

    Electrical Safety

    Burning smell from panel, sparks from switch, shock from tap, or repeated appliance damage — all require immediate intervention.
    Cut the main breaker immediately and avoid the area if there is smoke. Call us at +201004111999 for immediate emergency response.
    An RCCB protects against electric shock from earth leakage. The Egyptian code mandates it in bathroom and kitchen circuits. We recommend it on all circuits.
    Wires over 20-25 years old need inspection. Signs: brittle or cracked insulation, frequent breaker trips, or flickering lights.
    The Egyptian code requires earth resistance below 1 ohm for residential buildings. We measure and document this in the delivery report.
    Simple tasks like changing a bulb are safe. But panel and wiring work requires a specialist. Mistakes can be fatal.
    An SPD is installed in your panel to absorb sudden voltage spikes (surges) that damage electronic appliances.

    Service Scope

    Foundation is hidden work before plastering (conduits, wires, panel). Finishing is visible work after plastering (outlets, switches, fixtures).
    We install the dedicated electrical circuit and pull the correct wire. The AC unit itself is installed by the AC technician.
    Yes — offices, clinics, retail spaces, and light industrial. For large factories, contact us for project evaluation.
    Yes, we provide CAD electrical drawings (single-line diagrams) and load schedules suitable for permits.
    Yes. We install WiFi smart switches with no new wiring needed in most cases, or more advanced systems with minimal wiring changes.
    Yes, emergency service is available 24/7 for sudden outages, burning smell, and electric shock cases.
    Yes, we install dedicated pool electrical with isolation transformer, full earthing, bonding, and compliant with the Egyptian electrical code.

    Warranty & Quality

    We provide a 5-year warranty on all foundation and finishing work. The warranty covers workmanship defects.
    Covers: workmanship defects, loose connections. Excludes: damage from negligence, natural disasters, or modifications by third parties.
    Yes, we use only cables certified by the Egyptian Organization for Standardization (EOS). Brands: El-Sewedy Cables or certified equivalent.
    Yes, every project includes a technical delivery report with: circuit schedule, wire sizes, insulation test results, and earthing test results.
    Yes. We test insulation with a Megger device, measure earth resistance, and verify all circuits before handover.

    Service Areas

    We cover Greater Cairo and Giza: New Cairo, Madinaty, Rehab, Shorouk, New Capital, 6 October, Sheikh Zayed, Nasr City, Heliopolis, Maadi, Zamalek, Mohandessin, and more.
    We currently focus on Greater Cairo and Giza. For projects outside this area, contact us to assess feasibility.
    Yes, we work in all gated compounds and handle entry protocols and permits.
    Main Cairo areas have no extra charges. Very distant areas may have a small visit fee communicated upfront.

    Our Process

    Call or WhatsApp +201004111999, or use the contact form on the website. We arrange a site visit within 1-3 working days.
    A 100m² apartment takes 3-5 working days. A 200-300m² villa takes 7-12 days. Duration depends on project complexity.
    Yes, every project is supervised by a responsible electrical engineer who reviews design, oversees execution, and signs the final report.
    Your presence isn't required throughout, but we prefer you be reachable for on-site decisions. You can follow up remotely via WhatsApp.
    Yes, we provide a simple circuit plan showing each circuit's routing, wire size, and dedicated breaker number.
    Economy: certified local wires and conduits, local panel. Professional: El-Sewedy cables, Hager or Schneider panel, RCCB on all circuits.
    Yes — annual maintenance contracts include quarterly inspection, priority emergency repair, and 15% discount on spare parts.
