Full rough-in through finish, coordinated with your GC and timeline — for new builds, ADUs, and ground-up remodels.
Unlike a repair or upgrade on an existing home, new construction electrical work starts from open studs: every circuit, every box, and the panel itself get planned and installed before drywall goes up. In Los Angeles this comes up most on ADU builds (a fast-growing segment of the market thanks to the city's ADU ordinance), full remodels down to the studs, and ground-up new builds.
This is fundamentally a scheduling-and-coordination job as much as a wiring job — rough-in has to happen at the right point in the build sequence, and any change to the floor plan can mean a change to the electrical plan. We work off the plans, coordinate timing with the GC, and flag anything that needs a decision before we're boxed in behind drywall.
Rough-in happens at a specific framing stage, then again at finish — not a one-visit job.
The panel size and circuit count are decided based on the full building plan, not retrofitted to existing constraints.
Timing depends on framing, drywall, and inspection schedules set by the general contractor.
LADBS typically inspects rough-in before drywall and again at final.
New construction electrical is priced off the full scope: total circuit count, panel size, number of fixtures/outlets/switches, and any special provisions (EV charger conduit, solar-ready panel space, smart-home wiring). Because it's tied to a build schedule rather than a single visit, we quote off plans rather than a walkthrough.
Note: homeowner search demand for this exact service is low — most of this work comes through GC and builder referrals rather than a direct Google search, which is normal for new-construction trades.
We take on new construction and ADU electrical projects throughout Los Angeles and in Pasadena.
Both. For new construction we typically coordinate directly with the GC on scheduling, rough-in timing, and any plan changes that come up during the build.
Rough-in wiring for every circuit, panel installation, boxes for outlets/switches/fixtures, and finish work once walls are closed — plus coordinating LADBS rough-in and final inspections.
Yes — it's far cheaper to plan conduit and panel capacity for an EV charger or future solar during rough-in than to retrofit it after drywall goes up.
We flag anything that affects the electrical scope as soon as it comes up and give a revised cost before proceeding, rather than absorbing it silently or stopping work.
Yes — ADUs need their own panel or sub-panel and full rough-in, which is new-construction-style work even when it's in someone's backyard.
