Call Us If…
Real situations, not a capabilities list. If one of these sounds familiar, you're in the right place.
- 01You have a bid deadline and need electrical pricing from the drawing set.
- 02Your regular electrician is booked and the schedule can't move.
- 03A fit-out needs panels, equipment connections and lighting on a tight turnover.
- 04There's a deficiency list that needs an electrician to close it.
- 05You need ESA inspection coordination handled by the electrical trade.
Tender and Bid Requests
Upload the electrical and architectural drawings, specifications and addenda through the project form, with the bid deadline and expected construction dates. We review the package, note clarifications and exclusions, and return a priced scope. If the drawings leave decisions open — fixture selections, equipment loads, landlord work — we say so in writing rather than guessing.

Commercial Construction We Price
- Tenant improvements and leasehold fit-outs
- Commercial renovations in occupied buildings
- Restaurant construction and kitchen equipment connections
- Retail construction — display, signage and POS power
- Office renovations — workstation power, lighting and controls
- Distribution: panels, sub-panels, feeders and transformers
- Three-phase and 347/600V equipment and lighting
- Emergency lighting and exit signs
Coordination, Deficiencies and Turnover
We work to your schedule, attend coordination when needed and flag conflicts before they become change orders. ESA notifications are filed and inspections booked by us where the work requires it. At turnover you get closed deficiencies, updated panel directories and the inspection paperwork for your closeout package.
What We Need From You
The fastest quotes come from complete packages: drawings, specifications, project address, construction start, expected completion and any landlord criteria. Partial information is fine to start a conversation — we will list what's missing.
