New construction electrician in Detroit: local conditions matter

Detroit is in Wayne County in Southeast Michigan, where a large share of the housing was built between the 1920s and the 1970s. That means plenty of 60 and 100 amp services, fuse boxes, ungrounded outlets and, in some neighborhoods, knob and tube or aluminum wiring. When we take on new construction wiring in Detroit, the first step is often bringing those older systems up to date.

We provide new construction wiring throughout Detroit, including Mexicantown, Brush Park, West Village, Bagley and Sherwood Forest.

Decisions worth making before drywall

It costs very little to add things while walls are open, and a great deal later. During the walkthrough we ask about furniture placement, televisions, exterior and holiday lighting, a future EV charger, a generator and whether a basement will be finished. A few extra boxes and a conduit to the garage at rough-in can save thousands down the road. Builders in Detroit appreciate that we turn up on the day we said we would.

What our new construction electrician service in Detroit includes

Plan review and layout: Outlet, switch and lighting locations walked with the owner before rough-in.
