Moving some outlets...
-
Do you own or lease the office? If you lease, get the owner to do it. If you own, then as follows: Are you raising or lowering outlets? If so, do it yourself. It's not that hard to do. I've done in my own homes and it meets code. It's mostly a mechanical process. If you are adding outlets, then you will need some electrical assistance.

Lease, but the owner isn't paying for this. I can't even hang a painting on the wall, I'm not doing anything myself. Besides, it involves drilling in concrete, we're moving outlets from the middle of the room to the walls.

So I moved to a new office back in February. Everything's fine, except for these power outlets (that are like 10 to 20 cm high) that are on the floor in the middle of the room (which probably made sense in the 80's, when this building was built). Multiple people, including myself, regularly (almost) trip over them, so they have to go before someone breaks their neck over them. I asked some electricians to move them, but I get very high prices because no one is really waiting for this kind of work. It includes some drilling in a concrete floor on the first floor (second floor if you're in America). Today is finally the day and they drilled through a water pipe :(( The boiler is in someone's office that's never locked, except today. They're now removing the concrete floor and a plumber is on his way. Meanwhile, the other tenants and I don't have water. At this point I just hope they'll be fixing it today and that they won't charge me for it. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure their terms mentioned something about this :sigh: Who knew moving some outlets is one of the harder (and more expensive) things in life? :doh:

And now you know why the power outlets have never been moved from the centre of the office.
