DENVER, CO
Commercial electrical tenant improvement contractor in Denver
LOCAL MARKET
Tenant improvement electrical across metro Denver
Denver’s commercial market mixes historic buildings in LoDo and RiNo with modern towers downtown and suburban campuses in the Tech Center. Converted historic buildings often need significant electrical upgrades to support modern tenants.
Cannabis cultivation and processing facilities are a distinct part of the market. Grow lighting, dehumidification and HVAC create continuous heavy loads that often require service upgrades and careful distribution design.
The metro includes the City and County of Denver and many surrounding cities, each with its own building department.

PERMITS AND CODE
Permits, code and utilities in Denver
Colorado adopts the National Electrical Code statewide, and it is enforced by local building departments or the state where no local program exists. The City and County of Denver runs its own permitting, as do Aurora, Lakewood and the other metro cities.
Xcel Energy serves most of the metro. Service upgrades — common for cannabis and heavy industrial tenants — go through the utility, and we begin that process early.
Lighting alterations are subject to the jurisdiction’s adopted energy code. We confirm the control requirements before pricing.
What we confirm before pricing in Denver
- Denver or a surrounding jurisdiction
- Whether an Xcel Energy service upgrade is needed
- Condition of wiring in converted historic buildings
- Continuous loads for cultivation facilities
- Energy code lighting requirements
- Current review and inspection lead times
