Government building electrical contractor for San Antonio public facilities

Facility electrical work

Repairs, lighting retrofits, panel and service work, receptacle and circuit additions, and emergency and exit lighting are the bulk of facility work in public buildings. Each job starts with a written scope and a written bid, and changes are priced and approved before the work is done.

• Repairs and circuit additions
• Lighting retrofits and controls
• Panel and service work

Credentials buyers check

Wattsmith Electric holds SBA Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and Veteran-Owned Small Business certification, and our Texas license, insurance and federal registrations are published in one place so a contracting officer or a prime can check them.

Documentation

Public facilities run on records: what was done, where, when, and who did it. We label panels, keep work orders for every visit, and hand over the permit and inspection records with the job.

• Work orders for every visit
• Labeled panels and circuit directories
• Permit and inspection records

Working in occupied buildings

Offices, clinics and service counters stay open while the work happens, so outages are scheduled with the facility manager in advance, kept short, and done after hours where the building needs it. Access, escort and badge rules are planned into the schedule from the start.

Emergency and life safety systems

Exit signs and emergency lighting are tested monthly and annually under NFPA 101, with written records, and standby generators keep the loads the building cannot lose running in an outage. We test, repair and maintain both.

What goes wrong, and how we prevent it

Public jobs stall on missing paperwork, an outage nobody announced, or a scope that grew without a written change. A written scope before the start, an outage plan agreed with the facility manager, and a written price for every change keep the job on its schedule.
