Golden Wire Electric Inc. is not a volume-driven service shop. We are a design-build electrical contractor built around planning, accountability, and execution at a higher standard. That difference shows in how projects run, how inspections go, and how systems perform long after turnover.
Design-Build, Not Guess-and-Go
We engage early, think through constructability, load capacity, utility requirements, and code implications before work begins. Fewer surprises. Fewer change orders. Cleaner outcomes.
Commercial-Grade Standards on Every Job
Whether it’s a custom home or a commercial tenant improvement, we install electrical systems the same way: organized, labeled, documented, and inspection-ready. No shortcuts. No mess.
Utility and Code Fluency
PG&E coordination, service upgrades, Title 24 compliance, and AHJ requirements are routine for us—not learning curves. We speak the language inspectors and utilities expect.
Technology-Forward Execution
From smart panels and EV infrastructure to energy management and future-ready distribution, we build systems that support growth, electrification, and modern usage—not just minimum code.
Clean Jobsites, Professional Crews
White-glove execution matters. Our crews respect occupied homes, active businesses, and construction schedules. Clean installs, clear communication, professional presence.
Built for Long-Term Performance
We don’t just “get power on.” We design systems that scale, troubleshoot cleanly, and hold up over time. That’s why general contractors, property managers, and repeat clients continue to call us back.
