 Our Process

## Simple. Structured. Fully Compliant.

 1

### Site Visit & Assessment

We visit your premises to understand your requirements, assess the existing installation, and identify any compliance issues or opportunities for improvement. 

 2

### Scope & Documentation

You receive a detailed written proposal with clear pricing, timescales, and technical specifications. No hidden costs or vague estimates.

 3

### Installation & Certification

Work is completed to schedule with full certification, testing documentation, and ongoing support. You have complete traceability and accountability.

## Built for Harsh Agricultural Conditions

Agricultural buildings create challenging electrical environments. Damp conditions, ammonia, dust and heavy-duty equipment all place additional strain on systems and components. Equinox Contracts installs electrical systems designed to withstand demanding operating conditions while supporting safe day-to-day operations.

## **A Turnkey Approach**

We know farmers do not want to manage multiple contractors for one project. Equinox Contracts can coordinate projects from initial planning through to installation, testing and final sign-off. Where additional access equipment, trenching or supporting trades are required, we help coordinate the full process to keep projects moving efficiently.
