Electrical work for businesses that need to stay open
A commercial building can't sit dark for a week waiting on an electrician. Whether it's a store with lights out over the aisles, a restaurant that needs a new circuit for a cooler, or a church adding a fellowship hall, the work has to be done right, permitted and finished on a schedule that works for the business.
CDS Electric & Industrial Services has done commercial electrical work in eastern North Carolina since 1994. We're a licensed NC electrical contractor, and we bring the same standards we use in industrial plants to every commercial job.
Commercial electrical services
Lighting
Interior and exterior lighting for stores, offices, warehouses and parking areas, from replacing failed fixtures to relighting a whole space. Better lighting means a safer, better-looking building and often a lower power bill.
Panels, circuits and service
New panels, added circuits and service upgrades when a business adds equipment or outgrows its electrical system. We pull the permit and handle the coordination with the power company.
Equipment hookups
Coolers, freezers, kitchen equipment, compressors, shop machines and HVAC units need the right circuit and disconnect. We wire new equipment and move power when equipment moves.
Repairs and troubleshooting
Tripping breakers, dead circuits, flickering lights and failing equipment connections, tracked down and fixed.
Data cabling
Cat 6 network cabling for offices, point-of-sale systems and security equipment.
Build-outs and renovations
Electrical for tenant build-outs, additions and renovations, wired to code and inspected.

Tell us when the building is open and what can't be shut down, and we'll plan the work around it as much as the job allows.
