WHEN TO HIRE AN ELECTRICAL ENGINEER?
BEFORE YOU
BREAK GROUND
It’s ideal to consult with an electrical engineer before your project starts. This will ensure that the power needs of the project are planned in a way that can be safely and efficiently implemented and constructed.
DURING
CONSTRUCTION
Sometimes plans change and you need to hire an electrical engineer during the construction phase of your project. When this happens it is imperative to hire an engineer that will keep your project up to all the relevant standards and codes related to construction.
RENOVATION
OR REPAIR
Hiring an electrical engineer to help with a retrofit is a great idea. An electrical engineer can rework or rebuild your existing power distribution system to save energy and make it more efficient. This process can make your project more sustainable and environmentally friendly as well.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do we get started?
The first step is to discuss the project basics, review available materials, and outline expectations. Once we talk through the project and understand the requirements, our team will develop a proposal that explicitly covers the scope of services and the associated fee. We will review this together, and if acceptable, begin the project!
Has your firm successfully worked on projects similar to mine?
Although each project is unique, the principles of engineering remain the same. Over the last 45 years, we've worked on virtually every type of project imaginable. We've likely worked on a project similar to yours. Feel free to check out our projects page or call our engineering team with specific questions.
What is your communication process? And what's your typical response time if I have questions?
Our commitment to customer service is unwavering. We view communication as one of the keys to project success, and we'll involve you throughout the project. Once your project starts, feel free to connect with your engineer/project manager at any time. When specific questions arise, we’re generally able to answer them within one business day.
How flexible is your work process? Can you accommodate changes in scope?
The flexibility of a project decreases as it nears completion. If a change in scope is unavoidable, we do our best to make the change in a way that won't extend the project deadline or incur additional charges. Having all the details ironed out at the beginning of the project is preferable, but we will work with you if a change in scope is necessary.
How do you articulate findings to your clients?
We are hired for our expertise but also to explain our findings and make the process collaborative. Engineering concepts can be complex, but our goal is to make them simple, actionable, and easy to understand.
Can you meet my project deadline?
Our industry is very deadline-driven, and we will work with you to outline the project and set realistic timelines that our team can meet. The best next step is to call our office and set up an appointment to discuss your project with an engineer. There is an excellent chance we can meet your deadline. The sooner we meet you, the better.
