New Construction Wiring in Skokie & the North Shore

A new build or gut renovation is the one time the walls are open. Whatever gets wired in now is what you live with for the next fifty years. So the electrician matters more on this job than almost any other.

Peak Property Electric is owner Johnny and a small, uniformed crew with 18+ years of experience. We work from your plans, handle rough-in through trim-out, and coordinate directly with your GC and the inspector so nothing stalls the schedule. One of our reviews mentions a full basement rough-in done in a single day. That is the pace we like to keep.

And here is the part homeowners find reassuring: the same crew that wires your addition also wires commercial buildings. We bring that standard into a house too. Licensed and insured, IL license #SE8133. Call (773) 987-7677 for a free estimate.

Projects Where You Need a New-Construction Electrician

• You are building a new home and the GC needs a licensed electrical sub who shows up on schedule
• You are adding a room, dormer, or second story that needs its own circuits
• You are gutting a 1920s-1970s house to the studs and the old wiring should not go back in
• You are finishing a basement and want lighting, outlets, and future capacity roughed in properly
• Your renovation plans call for more power than the existing panel or service can deliver
• An electrical inspection failed or stalled and you need someone to get the job back on track

What's Included

• Complete wiring from your architectural plans for new builds, additions, and gut renovations
• Rough-in: circuits, boxes, and home runs while the walls are open
• Panel and service sizing so the house has room to grow, including upgrades when plans demand it
• Trim-out: outlets, switches, fixtures, and recessed lighting, tested and labeled
• Wiring for the extras while access is easy, like EV charger circuits
• Coordination with your GC, other trades, and the inspector at every stage
• Commercial and residential new-construction experience under one licensed crew

How We Work

Our process does not change because the job is bigger. We look first, in this case at your plans and the site. We explain what we found and quote it in writing before work starts. Then we do the work in the right order, rough-in through trim-out, and walk you through everything before final inspection. On every visit we also give the panel and any visible wiring a free once-over, and if we spot something unsafe, you see photos of it, not just our word.

• 1. Free estimate & safety check — we look at the job, give your panel a free once-over, and quote upfront pricing.
• 2. Straightforward plan — scope, materials, timeline, and cost in plain English before we start.
• 3. Professional execution — licensed electricians, clean work, everything to code.
• 4. Final walkthrough — we test everything, clean up, and walk you through what we did.

What Does New Construction Wiring Cost in the Skokie Area?

No two builds price the same, so an honest answer starts with your plans. The big drivers are square footage and circuit count, the service size the house needs (a home with an EV charger and electric appliances needs more than one from 1965 did), and the finish schedule, since recessed lighting throughout costs more to wire than basic fixtures. Gut renovations add one more variable: what we find behind the old walls.

What we can promise is a free written quote before any work begins. We review your plans, walk the site, and put a real number on paper. Call (773) 987-7677 and we will take a look.
