What this covers
- Service and panel upgrades
- New circuits, outlets and lighting
- Rewiring and code-correction work
- Electrical for remodels, filed alongside the building permit or on its own
How it works
- Talk to Tony — tell him the address and the scope. Two minutes, from the job site.
- We prepare and file the application through PermitSF, the city's portal.
- City fees pass through at cost — you see them before anything is filed.
- When the permit issues, we line up the inspection. Work gets inspected before wiring is covered — that sequencing is on us to track, not you.
Good to know in San Francisco
- Electrical permits file online through PermitSF; straightforward work can move without a long plan review.
- Only owners of stand-alone single-family homes may apply for their own electrical permit, and the city asks them to visit the Permit Center help desk shortly after applying. Everyone else files through a licensed contractor — which is who we file for, every day.
- Working without the permit risks a stop-work notice and correction costs that dwarf the permit fee. The permit is the cheap part.
Who uses this
Licensed C-10 electrical contractors who would rather be on the tools than in a portal, property managers running electrical work across buildings, and homeowners hiring it done right.
