We Handle the Permits and Inspections So You Don’t Have To
At TriCities Electric, we take care of every detail — from start to finish. That includes pulling permits, scheduling inspections, and working directly with local building departments to make sure your project meets every code requirement.
Before we start wiring, our team files the necessary permits with your city or county. Once the rough-in is complete, we coordinate inspections with local officials to confirm everything passes before moving forward. You can rest easy knowing your electrical work is handled by professionals who understand the entire process inside and out.
The Rough-In Phase: Setting the Stage
The rough-in phase is where your electrical system begins to take shape. This happens after framing is complete but before insulation and drywall are installed — when the structure is open and accessible.
During this stage, our electricians:
- Run electrical wiring through the walls, ceilings, and floors.
- Install outlet boxes, switch boxes, and electrical panels.
- Set up circuits for lighting, appliances, and power outlets.
Once everything is neatly installed and securely fastened, we schedule an official inspection to verify that all wiring meets local and national electrical codes. Only after passing inspection does your project move forward to insulation and drywall.
The Trim-Out Phase: Bringing Power to Life
After drywall, paint, and all the other trades are finished, we return for the trim-out phase — the final step in your electrical installation.
This is when your system goes from behind-the-scenes to fully functional. Our team:
- Installs outlets, switches, light fixtures, and dimmers.
- Hooks up appliances, ceiling fans, and specialty lighting.
- Tests every circuit, ensuring every connection works perfectly.
The trim-out is the finishing touch that makes your home or building come alive. When we’re done, everything looks clean, works flawlessly, and is ready for everyday use.
