Budgeting for Your Project’s Electrical System
New construction electrical costs typically range from $8 to $15 per square foot, depending on the home's size, complexity, and electrical requirements. A standard 2,000 square foot home generally requires $16,000 to $30,000 for complete electrical installation, including all materials, labor, permits, and inspections. Luxury homes with extensive smart home integration, multiple electrical panels, or specialized systems can reach $20 to $25 per square foot.
Key cost factors include electrical panel capacity (200-amp service is now standard), outlet and switch quantities, lighting fixture complexity, and smart home pre-wiring requirements. Special features like whole-house generators, electric vehicle charging stations, or pools and hot tubs can also add to base costs. High-end finishes, custom lighting designs, and premium electrical components increase material expenses.
Woodstock Heating, Cooling and Electrical provides detailed estimates during the planning phase that break down all electrical components, allowing you to make informed decisions about features and finishes that fit your budget. Our transparent pricing includes all necessary permits, inspections, and code compliance work with no hidden surprises.
Integrating Electrical Installation into the Construction Process
Our systematic approach to electrical system design and installation maximizes efficiency while maintaining the highest quality standards throughout every phase.
Our process for working with new construction projects includes:
- A design and planning phase. We collaborate with architects and builders to create comprehensive electrical plans that include panel locations, circuit layouts, outlet placements, and lighting designs tailored to your lifestyle needs.
- Permit acquisition and approvals. Our team handles all electrical permit applications and plan reviews with local authorities to obtain necessary approvals before construction begins.
- Rough-in installation. After framing is complete, we install electrical panels, run wiring through walls and ceilings, and place outlet boxes and switch boxes according to approved plans.
- Service entrance installation. We coordinate with utility companies to install electrical meters, service panels, and main disconnects that connect your home to the electrical grid.
- System testing and inspection. All rough-in work undergoes thorough testing for proper connections and safety compliance before walls are closed, followed by municipal inspection approval.
- Finish electrical work. After drywall completion, we install outlets, switches, light fixtures, and electrical devices according to your specifications and design preferences.
- Final testing and commissioning. Complete system testing verifies proper operation of all circuits, safety devices, and electrical components before final inspection and utility connection.
