Builders & General Contractors

Electrical and standby power from one licensed sub. Send us the plan set and we'll price the scope — and where the space needs backup power, that comes from the same contract.

  • Texas Electrical Contractor TECL #37583
  • Hard bids from engineered drawings
  • Self-performed, not brokered out
  • Generac and Kohler, air- and liquid-cooled

Who this is for

General contractors
Electrical scope on tenant finish-out, bid from your plan set and self-performed. Add standby power to the same contract where the space needs it.
Custom home builders
Standby generators specified, sized and installed before closing, so the buyer takes delivery of a finished system rather than a future project.
Developers and property managers
Multiple properties, one licensed contractor, consistent equipment and one service relationship afterwards.
Architects and engineers
We read one-lines and panel schedules. If a spec is ambiguous we ask rather than bury an assumption in the price.

Why one contractor for both

Most generator companies in this market only do generators. Most electrical contractors do not do standby power properly. That split is normally your problem to manage — two subs, two schedules, and an interface at the transfer switch that each one assumes the other owns.

  • One license, two scopesElectrical and standby power both run under TECL #37583. No coordinating two subs who each assume the other owns the interface at the transfer switch.
  • We bid properlyOff engineered drawings, in whatever format your bid package needs. Questions come back before the number, not as a change order after.
  • We self-performThe crew on site works for the company that signed the bid.
  • Service continuityThe generators we install we also maintain. Your buyer or tenant inherits a service relationship, not an orphaned machine.

Working to your schedule

We are used to being a sub on a finish-out program: rough-in coordinated around framing and mechanical, inspection dates hit, and the understanding that the schedule will move at least twice. If you need a scope letter or a schedule-of-values format, tell us and we will match it.

Standby power in new homes

Specifying a generator during the build is considerably cheaper and cleaner than retrofitting one. The gas line can be sized and routed while the trench is already open, the pad goes in with the other flatwork, and the transfer switch is installed alongside the panel rather than cut in later.

In Fort Bend's master-planned communities it also avoids the HOA problem entirely — approval for exterior mechanical equipment is far easier as part of the original submission than as a change afterwards.
