Tenant Improvement Electrical
Quick answer
Tenant improvement electrical for offices, retail, and medical suites, demo, new circuits, lighting, and panel work delivered on your GC's schedule, permitted and inspected without slipping the opening date.TI work lives and dies on sequencing: electrical touches demo, rough-in, and finish, and any slip cascades into the lease's rent-commencement clause. We build TI scopes from the space plan, coordinate with the GC's calendar, and staff to hit milestone dates.
About Tenant Improvement Electrical
Tenant improvements run on two clocks: the construction schedule and the lease clause that starts rent whether the space is ready or not. Electrical sits on the critical path of both, demo can't finish until circuits are safely killed and capped, walls can't close until rough-in passes, and occupancy waits on the final. Our TI practice is built around protecting those dates.
We work from your architect's plans and the landlord's building rules: suite panel capacity verified against the new layout early (the classic TI surprise is a space plan the panel can't feed), house-meter and sub-meter questions settled before demo, and inspections sequenced so the GC never waits on electrical.
TI scopes we deliver routinely
- Office suites: open-plan power/data, conference AV circuits, lighting to energy code
- Retail: sales-floor lighting design, signage circuits, POS and back-office power
- Medical/dental: equipment-spec circuits, isolated grounds, exam-room requirements
- Restaurants within retail shells: the full kitchen electrical package
- White-box and landlord work: bringing shells to lease-ready baseline
Field notes: the TI surprises that blow budgets
The pattern repeats across markets: the lease is signed, the space plan approved, demo begins, and the ceiling reveals that the previous tenant's 'minor modifications' left undocumented junctions, abandoned circuits, and a panel schedule that describes a space plan from two tenants ago. Discovery mid-demolition means change orders with schedule pressure, the worst negotiating position a project can occupy.
The prevention costs almost nothing: a pre-lease electrical walkthrough with the plans in hand. Thirty minutes verifies panel capacity against the intended use, flags the previous tenant's legacy, and prices the real electrical scope while it's still a negotiating item with the landlord instead of your problem. We do these walkthroughs routinely, often the cheapest insurance in the entire lease transaction.

With plans in hand, permit filing starts immediately and crews mobilize on the GC's demo-complete date. We quote from the drawings, send them with your request and the timeline lands with the price.
Yes, occupied-building TI routinely runs after hours and weekends. Noise-heavy phases schedule around neighboring leases, and we coordinate building-management access as part of the job.
We do, suite-level capacity upgrades, sub-metering changes, and house-panel coordination run through us and the building's utility contact, documented for the landlord's records.
At space-plan stage, before lease signing if possible. A ten-minute panel-capacity check against the intended use has saved tenants from leases whose buildout costs they hadn't priced.
