Commercial electrician Houston for build-outs, repairs and industrial power

Commercial and industrial work in Houston

Houston work runs from tenant suites and restaurants to warehouses along the freight corridors and industrial plants, and much of it needs both a city permit and coordination with CenterPoint before the service changes. We take on commercial, industrial and commercial standby generator work in Houston.

• Tenant build-outs and remodels
• Commercial electrical repair
• Industrial power, motor controls and equipment hookups
• Service upgrades
• Commercial standby generators

New-construction residential in Houston

For production and custom home builders in the Houston area, we wire new homes: whole-house rough-in and trim-out, service entrances and temporary power. Service calls, repairs and remodels on existing homes stay in the San Antonio area only.

Who owns the wires

CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric maintains the poles, wires and infrastructure that deliver power in the Houston area. Service changes, new meters and upgrades are coordinated with CenterPoint.

Permits in Houston

Electrical permits in Houston come from the Houston Permitting Center, through the Electrical Inspections section of Houston Public Works at 1002 Washington Avenue, and are applied for through iPermits. We pull the electrical permit, schedule the inspections and meet the inspector.

Contractor registration

Houston requires any business doing electrical work in the city to register with the Electrical Inspections section, with its Texas master electrician and contractor licenses. The registration is in place before the permit is pulled, so it never holds up a start date.

Which code edition applies

The Houston Permitting Center reviews permit applications submitted on or after September 1, 2026 under the 2026 National Electrical Code. TDLR adopted the 2026 National Electrical Code as the state electrical code effective September 1, 2026, and cities adopt their own editions and amendments, so the edition that applies is the one the permit office reviews your permit under.

How we run a job away from San Antonio

Every job starts with a written bid: the scope, the permit, the inspections and how changes are priced. The schedule is set with you before we travel, outages are planned around your hours, and every change gets a written price and your approval before the work is done.

• A written bid before work begins
• Outages scheduled around your hours
• Change orders priced and approved first
