Why we calculate before we quote.
Most electrical estimates in this region are a guess dressed as a number. The crew arrives, finds the service can't carry the load, and the homeowner gets a change order they never budgeted for.
We start every proposal with an NEC 220 demand-load calculation. It takes us an extra hour on site and it is the reason our quotes don't move. If your panel can't carry the work, you find that out on day zero.
We also meet the inspector ourselves. Corrections, when they happen, are handled the same day and never billed to you.

Why Northwire
The standard, quietly held.
01
We calculate before we quote.
Every proposal starts with a load calculation, not a guess. That's why our estimates don't change halfway through the job.
02
A master electrician on every job.
Not a helper with a phone number to call. The person doing the work is the person who can sign for it.
03
First-pass inspection or we eat it.
We meet the inspector ourselves. Any correction is handled the same day at our cost.
