About the Firm

A family-owned commercial electrical contractor, run by the people on the trucks.

Two yards, 62 electricians, and one phone number. Dallas Commercial Electric is structured so the owners are the same people answering the dispatch line, walking the job sites, and signing the warranty.

Built the way commercial electrical work is supposed to be built.

We're a commercial electrical contractor headquartered in Farmers Branch, with a south yard in Grand Prairie. Our work is structured around two ideas: keep crews in-house, and keep ownership accountable to the buildings we serve.

We don't subcontract field work, we don't farm out PMs to third parties, and we don't grow faster than we can hire properly. The result is a project book of warehouses, medical campuses, restaurants, retail centers, and office towers across North Texas, plus a service contract list that has stayed mostly the same for years at a time.

How We're Structured

A real operation, not a name and a phone number.

Anyone can rent an office and answer a phone. The reason facility managers keep us on retainer is that we run a real shop with real depth behind it.

Two yards across DFW

Headquarters at 2840 Industrial Blvd in Farmers Branch handles north-metro dispatch. South yard at 1190 Great Southwest Pkwy in Grand Prairie covers Tarrant County and the southern arc.

  • North & south coverage
  • Crew staging at both yards
  • Material warehouses on-site
  • Service truck fleet split

62 electricians, all in-house

Every electrician on the payroll. No 1099 fill-ins, no rotating subs. The same crew that bid the work shows up to install it, and the same PM stays on the account through closeout and warranty.

  • Full-time employees
  • W-2 payroll, year-round
  • Apprentice program
  • Consistent quality control

22 service trucks rolling

A fleet of fully-stocked service trucks running across the metro every weekday, with rotating standby for after-hours and weekend dispatch. Trucks carry common parts, panels, breakers, and conduit ready to deploy.

  • GPS-tracked dispatch
  • Pre-stocked for common calls
  • Two trucks on rolling standby
  • Weekend rotation crews

Live dispatch, 24/7/365

Phones answered by a real person at any hour, including weekends and holidays. After-hours calls route directly to a senior service tech who can triage, dispatch, or walk a facility manager through what to do next.

  • Live answer, not voicemail
  • ~47 min avg response inside Loop
  • Holiday & weekend coverage
  • Direct line to PM on contracts
Leadership

The same people who answer the phone sign the warranty.

Dallas Commercial Electric is owner-operated. Decisions about hiring, fleet, scheduling, and how a job gets handled in the field are made by the people whose name is on the side of the truck. That changes how we run the business and it changes how we treat the buildings we work in.

It also means our project managers don't disappear after the bid. The PM who walks your building is the PM who'll be there on rough-in, on final, and on the service call eighteen months later when something needs attention.

How We Work

Five principles that shape every job.

If you've worked with us, you've seen these. If you haven't, this is how it'll go.

01

Walk the site before quoting

For anything beyond a service call, a project manager walks the building with you, takes measurements, documents existing conditions, and writes the scope. No remote-only quotes on commercial work.

02

Quote everything in writing

Itemized scope, materials, labor, permit fees, and contingency, on every project. If the job needs to change, change orders are written and approved before the work happens.

03

One PM per account

Property managers and facility teams talk to the same project manager every time. The PM owns the relationship through bid, installation, closeout, and ongoing service.

04

Close out properly

Megger tests, panel labeling, infrared verification, training for your facility team, and as-built drawings turned over digitally. The warranty period starts with documentation in hand.

05

Stand behind it

One-year workmanship warranty on every project, manufacturer warranty on materials, and a service number you can call long after the invoice is paid. We come back if something needs attention.
