From the first rough-in to the final fixture, we ensure your system is safe, efficient, and built to last.

Comprehensive New Construction Electrical Services

Design and Planning

Every successful project begins with careful planning. We review blueprints, calculate load requirements, and design circuits that distribute power efficiently. We also plan for panel locations, future expansion, and convenience for everyday use.

Rough-In Installation

During the rough-in phase, we install conduit, wiring, and boxes with precision. Our electricians follow best practices for neat routing, secure fastening, and code compliance. This sets the stage for drywall, flooring, and finishes to proceed smoothly.

Fixture Installation and Trim

Once finishes are complete, we return to install devices, fixtures, panels, and lighting. Every outlet, switch, and fixture is aligned properly, tested, and labeled for easy use.

Final Testing and Inspection

Before turnover, we test every circuit under load, verify GFCI and AFCI operation, check grounding and bonding, and confirm that your system meets both safety codes and your expectations.

Electrical Expertise for Your New Build

Building a new home is exciting, but it also comes with complex decisions. Our residential new construction services are designed to give homeowners peace of mind, knowing their property is wired safely and equipped for the future.

Multifamily Properties

For builders and developers, we provide electrical systems for multifamily residences that are efficient, organized, and easy to maintain. We ensure each unit has safe, separate service, and we coordinate with project managers to keep construction schedules on track.

Commercial New Construction Services

Commercial projects require more than just basic wiring. Offices, retail spaces, and restaurants need systems that support heavy equipment, complex lighting, and long hours of operation.
