What we do Roughly a third of Grizzly's work is commercial — tenant finish-outs, lighting retrofits, equipment wiring, panel upgrades, and everything that keeps a commercial building up to code and running smoothly. We're licensed, insured, and carry workers' comp on every job. That's non-negotiable for property managers and general contractors who need someone reliable on the job.
New tenant spaces need full electrical builds from scratch. That's panel work, conduit runs, fixture placement, outlet placement, and everything in between. Whether it's a new restaurant, a retail storefront, a medical office, or a warehouse build-out, we coordinate with the general contractor so the electrical phase doesn't bottleneck the whole project.
We layout the circuits based on the tenant's trade, not a generic template. A restaurant needs kitchen equipment circuits, a medical office needs dedicated outlets for imaging equipment, a warehouse needs heavy-duty receptacles for material handling. We size everything for the actual load, not the minimum code requirement.
Upgrading from old fluorescent troffers to LED is one of the highest-return commercial upgrades you can make. It cuts the lighting load dramatically, reduces HVAC cooling loads (LEDs put out less heat), and makes the space look completely different. We've done a lot of these in DFW — strip malls, office buildings, warehouses — and the payback period is usually shorter than people expect.
For existing spaces, we'll map the current fixture layout and swap to a modern LED solution that fits the same grid. If you want to reposition fixtures for better coverage, that's a bigger job but still straightforward from a wiring standpoint.
Commercial equipment — copy machines, HVAC systems, kitchen appliances, medical devices — all needs dedicated circuits. We size the wire, run the conduit, install the receptacle or hardwired connection, and make sure the panel has room. If the panel is already loaded, we'll point you to our panel upgrades page so you know what a service expansion looks like.
One thing commercial owners often don't think about until it's too late: adding equipment without checking panel capacity first. That's the #1 way you end up mid-project with a surprise panel upgrade that could have been planned from the start.
Commercial work has its own code requirements, and the inspections are more rigorous than residential. We pull the permits, do the work to code, and schedule the inspections. Most DFW commercial projects clear inspection on the first pass because we plan for it from the start.
If you're working with a GC who's used to residential and needs to understand commercial codes, we'll walk them through it. We've seen a lot of GCs who know their trade but aren't as sharp on the electrical side — we fill that gap.
Commercial buildings break. Panels trip, circuits degrade, and equipment wears. We do maintenance calls for property managers across DFW — troubleshooting dead zones, replacing worn-out receptacles, diagnosing breaker issues, and scheduling preventive upgrades before they turn into emergencies.
We schedule around your tenants' hours so we don't disrupt business. Most maintenance work happens evenings or weekends. Emergency calls we handle the same day.
Commercial work is inherently different from residential, so pricing is project-specific. Here's what drives it:
