At Capital Electric we view major construction to be the effective integration of the owner’s needs, quality installation and service, least possible cost, safety, and timely project scheduling. This corporate philosophy is beneficial to the owner, architect, and the construction team.Capital Electric is focused on start-to-finish solutions. As a single source provider we can handle projects that fall into multiple market categories in a broad range of project sizes and technical complexities. We normally perform all electrical construction and system installation with our own forces, except for utilization of diversity program subcontractors.
