How a job runs
- Tell us about it. Use the request form to describe the work, the site, and your timing. Drawings, equipment specs, or photos help.
- Site walk. We come out, look at the existing electrical, the equipment, and the access, and ask about your production schedule, lockout points, and planned downtime.
- Written estimate. You get a clear scope and price before any work starts. Nothing moves forward until you approve it.
- Permit and schedule. We pull the electrical permit for our work and set a schedule around your operation.
- The work. Planned shutdowns, lockout/tagout, a clean work area, and updates as we go.
- Inspection and closeout. We schedule the electrical inspection and walk you through what was done, including updated panel directories and labels.
Permits and inspections
Electrical work needs a permit and an inspection. In most of Southwest Washington that goes through Washington L&I; some cities, such as Vancouver, run their own electrical permits, and Oregon jobs go through the local building department or the state. We buy the electrical permit for the work we do and coordinate the inspection, so the job is documented and signed off.
Working around production
Downtime is expensive. We plan shutdowns with you ahead of time, line work up for scheduled maintenance windows, nights, or weekends when needed, and stage materials so the outage is as short as it can be. When a tie-in can’t wait, we tell you exactly what will be off and for how long.
Safety comes first
Safety comes first, and on a job site that means real procedures: equipment de-energized and locked out before we work on it, the right protective gear for the task, and nobody guessing about what’s live. We follow your site’s safety rules and check-in process on top of our own.
Documentation you can use
When we’re done you get labeled equipment, updated panel directories, and a clear summary of what was installed or changed, so your maintenance team isn’t left guessing.
