Commercial New Construction Wiring Done Right
We deliver safe, code-compliant electrical systems that keep your project on schedule and built to last.
Commercial New Construction Wiring
At Hatchett Electrical Services, Inc., we provide complete commercial new construction wiring for ground-up projects of all sizes. We work with business owners, general contractors, developers, and property managers to build safe, efficient, code-compliant electrical systems from the start. When a commercial building is wired correctly during construction, it helps everything run better later. It supports reliable power, smoother inspections, better energy performance, and fewer costly changes after the walls are closed up.
We bring years of hands-on electrical experience to new commercial builds. Our team understands how important timing, coordination, and quality are on an active job site. We show up ready to work, communicate clearly, and stay focused on keeping the project moving. From the first rough-in to the final trim-out, we handle the electrical work with care and attention to detail.
What our commercial new construction wiring service includes
Commercial electrical systems need to do more than just turn lights on. They need to support daily operations, equipment loads, employee safety, customer comfort, and future growth. We design and install wiring systems that match the needs of the building and the way the space will be used.
Our scope of work can include:
- Main electrical service installation
- Panels, switchgear, and distribution equipment
- Branch circuit wiring
- Interior and exterior lighting wiring
- Dedicated circuits for specialty equipment
- Receptacles, switches, and device installation
- Conduit installation and wire pulling
- Emergency and exit lighting circuits
- Surge protection and grounding
- Low-voltage rough-in coordination
- Metering equipment
- Electrical service for HVAC systems and mechanical equipment
- Electrical rooms and utility connections
- Final trim, testing, and startup support
Every project is different, so we tailor the wiring plan to the building type, occupancy, electrical demand, and local code requirements. Whether you are building office space, retail space, a restaurant, a warehouse, a medical facility, or another commercial property, we make sure the system is set up for long-term performance.
Planning and coordination from the beginning
A successful commercial electrical installation starts long before wire is pulled. We review plans, electrical layouts, load requirements, equipment schedules, and construction timelines so we can spot issues early and avoid delays later. Our goal is to make the electrical part of the project organized and predictable.
We coordinate closely with general contractors, project managers, architects, engineers, and other trades on the job. That includes working around framing, plumbing, HVAC, fire alarm needs, and equipment placement. Good coordination helps keep the project on schedule and reduces rework. It also helps inspections go more smoothly.
During pre-construction and layout, we pay attention to important details such as:
- Service size and power distribution needs
- Panel locations and circuit planning
- Lighting placement and switching controls
- Code-required clearances and accessibility
- Energy code considerations
- Equipment voltage and amperage requirements
- Future expansion needs
- Site-specific conditions and utility requirements
By thinking ahead, we help our customers avoid common construction problems like overloaded panels, poor device placement, not enough dedicated circuits, or missing pathways for future systems.
Safe, code-compliant commercial wiring
Commercial new construction wiring must meet strict safety and code standards. We install electrical systems with a strong focus on workmanship, proper materials, and compliance. Our team follows current code requirements and industry best practices throughout the project.
That includes proper conductor sizing, conduit fill, grounding and bonding, circuit protection, labeling, and safe equipment installation. We also understand the inspection process and work to keep every phase ready for review. When electrical work is done right the first time, it protects the investment in the building and helps prevent delays during final approval.
Safety matters on every level. We care about job site safety while work is in progress, and we care about the long-term safety of the people who will use the building every day. That means installing systems that are dependable, organized, and built for real commercial use.
Wiring for lighting, power, and equipment
One of the most important parts of commercial wiring is making sure the building has the right power in the right places. We install branch circuits, feeders, and distribution systems to support lighting, outlets, office equipment, appliances, machinery, and building systems. We also take into account the workflow of the space so devices and circuits are located where they make sense.
Lighting is another major part of the project. We wire general lighting, task lighting, exterior lighting, parking lot lighting, security lighting, and code-required emergency lighting as needed. We can also coordinate with lighting controls and occupancy-based systems to help improve energy efficiency and meet commercial building requirements.
For businesses with special equipment, we install dedicated circuits and wiring for items such as:
- HVAC units and air handlers
- Walk-in coolers and refrigeration equipment
- Commercial kitchen equipment
- Office and IT equipment
- Production equipment and shop tools
- Elevators or lift systems coordination
- Fire alarm and security system power needs
- Signage and exterior service components
We make sure these systems have the power they need and are wired according to manufacturer requirements and project specifications.
Built with future use in mind
New construction is the best time to think about the future. We help customers plan for growth, tenant improvements, equipment changes, and new technology needs before the building is finished. A little planning during construction can save a lot of money later.
We can install extra capacity where it makes sense, leave room in panels for future circuits, and plan pathways for later additions. This is especially helpful for commercial buildings that may change use over time or need to support expanding operations. We want the electrical system to serve the building now and still be useful years from now.
Our process
We keep our commercial new construction wiring process clear and straightforward:
- Plan review: We review drawings, specifications, and project goals.
- Scope and budgeting: We define the work, identify materials, and help align the electrical scope with the project budget.
- Layout and rough-in: We install conduit, boxes, supports, pathways, and rough wiring based on the construction schedule.
- Service and equipment installation: We set panels, service equipment, disconnects, and distribution components.
- Trim-out: We install devices, fixtures, cover plates, and finish electrical connections.
- Testing and final review: We check circuits, verify operation, support inspections, and make sure the system is ready for turnover.
Throughout the project, we stay in communication so you know where things stand. If questions come up, we address them quickly and professionally. We know commercial construction depends on teamwork, and we take that responsibility seriously.

"Had them wire my shed from the existing extension cord set up to hard wired to my breaker panel....the work was done exceptionally and up to code!!!! Price was very very fair and was done in a couple of hours... I thought it would take longer and cost more.....will be calling them again for any electrical projects"
"Highly recommend! We had them come to install some fixtures at our home and we are very satisfied. Great work at a fair price."
"Aaron Hatchett came to the rescue after THE BIG WINDSTORM had torn the main power line from our house and we could not get help. He said "there is no way I can leave you here in danger with this thing hanging by a thread". He not only knew what to do to repair the problem, but he also knew what he had to do to work with the city inspector and the electric company. He stayed in clear communication, saved us money, and went above and beyond."
"Hatchett Electrical did an outstanding job replacing numerous panel boxes at several apartment/commercial properties we own. They worked through the process with Dominion and the cities public works and utility departments thoroughly and very knowledgeably. Hatchett also worked on other residential projects and did a great job. I highly recommend Hatchett Electrical for any commercial or residential electrical work."
"Hatchett Electrical was GREAT! They were punctual, honest, and did a great job! We had an issue with our bathroom receptacles and Chris had everything back up and running smoothly for us! He checked out our electrical box and discovered a few issues that he corrected for us as well. We were very grateful for his help. We would highly recommend this company and plan to use them again soon for more upcoming electrical projects. A++"
"I highly recommend Hatchett Electrical. I hired them to install permanent pole lighting and an electrical outlet on a pier I had constructed the previous year. The pier had an electrical connection for a boat lift installed by another electrician. Although problems were discovered by Hatchett Electrical, caused by the previous electrician, Aaron and company were able to work through this in a very professional manner. Their price was fair, they were very responsive as we worked through issues. I repeat. I HIGHLY recommend this company for any of your current and future electrical needs. Aaron is the best!"
"On time, On budget, great communication and follow up.. what more could you ask for!!!!"
"What a great bunch of folks!! Aaron worked HARD to ensure my electrical was perfect for my home remodel. He was on the phone negotiating when there were problems with vendors. He was my champion when things didn’t go quite as planned (through no fault of Hatchett Electrical). I met two different crews during their work with us. Both crews were personable, competent professionals, and very helpful when asked to do something new. My project was not a common everyday install, but there was no hesitation to venture into new territory and I believe they were just as excited as I was to ‘figure it out’. Eric and Nate especially were tasked with the majority of the install. From electrical panels to light switches to overhead inserts to countertop lighting, they did EVERYTHING as requested, even when mistakes were made that others may have become frustrated by. It is not often that you can feel 100% confident that your request will be completed with exemplary workmanship. This, however is the case with Hatchett Electrical. Their steadfast determination to provide a professional product was evident at every turn. Without any hesitation, I wholeheartedly recommend them. I could not be more pleased with everything that they did for my project. Outstanding, excellent work! They will most definitely be my go to electrical team moving forward!"

"Issue: a simple 120V light switch in kitchen that controls garbage disposal stopped working, and the wire was still HOT! As a homeowner, I bought new light switch thinking that was issue, change out, still no power. I called Aaron at Hatchett to make an appointment. He was gracious and professional to a point where he quickly trouble-shot the problem, suggested hitting the reset button on the disposal; which correctly the issue. He could have driven out, made the $120 plus cost for any materials, but he was more concern about resolving an issue. That is customer service and a business that is all about you the homeowner!! Bravo Zulu!!"
"I recently called Hatchett Electrical, last minute on a Monday, and was immediately set-up with an appointment for that same afternoon! The electrician was already finished with his jobs for the day but took the call to come to my house that afternoon around 3pm. He was right on time, walked me through the initial troubleshooting, and was very straight forward and honest the whole time during the appointment. He found and fixed our issue with some bad connections outside on our patio in less than an hour! I was highly impressed with the customer service of this company and will definitely use them again."
