How We Work

Every project follows a clear path from start to finish.

Assess Your Needs

We inspect your home or business to understand the scope. For older Belltown lofts or Pioneer Square brick buildings, we check existing systems and code compliance.

Plan & Permit

We prepare plans and apply for permits with Seattle SDCI. Most residential projects need plan review or over-the-counter permits. We handle all paperwork.

Perform Work

Licensed electricians complete the install. We coordinate site access for high-rise condos and multi-unit buildings common in downtown.

Inspect & Sign Off

City inspectors verify the work. We schedule cover, service, and final inspections. You get sign-off when everything passes.

You'll always know what's happening next—and when.

Our Services

We specialize in residential and commercial electrical projects.

Electrical Panel Upgrades

Older downtown homes and condos often need higher capacity. We upgrade panels from 100-amp to 200-amp service, add circuits for new appliances, and ensure your electrical system meets Seattle code.

Panel upgrades require permits and three inspections—we manage every step.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for electrical work in Seattle?

Yes. Any time electrical wiring is installed, altered, extended, or connected to equipment requires a permit. We apply for both over-the-counter and plan review permits depending on project size.

How long do inspections take?

Most residential projects require three inspections: cover, service, and final. City inspectors typically schedule within 5–10 business days of request. We coordinate scheduling for you.

Can I schedule work around my building's quiet hours?

Yes. Downtown high-rise condos and apartments often restrict work hours. We coordinate with your property manager and schedule around building rules and HOA meeting days when needed.

Do you work on historic properties?

Yes. Pioneer Square and Pike Place Market properties fall under Historic District rules. Exterior changes need approval before we apply for permits. We handle the process.

How far in advance should I book?

For panel upgrades and major rewiring, plan 2–4 weeks ahead so permits can be reviewed and inspections scheduled. Smaller jobs like outlet or switch installation often fit in within days.

Do you handle EV charging for multifamily buildings?

Yes. We design and install Level 2 chargers in apartments, condos, and commercial parking areas. We coordinate with electrical systems, manage HOA approvals, and follow Seattle's green building codes.
