Electrical Subcontractor
Looking for an electrical subcontractor in the Denver metro who bids straight, shows up staffed, and never becomes your critical-path problem? Terry Electric runs electrical scopes for general contractors, builders and remodelers — tenant finish, new construction wiring, and commercial service. Family-owned, 25+ years, licensed and insured. Call (720) 340-6364.
Terry Electric works as an electrical subcontractor and trade partner for general contractors, builders and property managers across Lakewood, Denver and the west metro — bidding from your drawings, coordinating with your other trades, and keeping electrical inspections on your schedule instead of in your way.
Tenant finish and commercial build-outs
Tenant finish is where a GC learns what an electrical sub is really made of — it's the trade with the most touchpoints and the inspections that gate everyone else. We've wired commercial tenant finishes and build-outs across the metro for 25+ years: office suites, retail, restaurants and service businesses. We read the drawings closely, flag conflicts early instead of at rough-in, and communicate like a partner rather than a sub you have to chase. GCs keep our number because we don't create surprises.
New construction electrical for builders
From production homes to custom builds in the foothills — Morrison, Evergreen, Genesee, Conifer — and commercial ground-up work, we handle new construction electrical end to end: temporary power, rough-in to plan, service and panel work, low-voltage pathways, and finish. We coordinate with framing and mechanical, hit our inspection windows, and staff the job so your schedule doesn't slip waiting on the electrician.
A service partner for property managers
Between projects, commercial buildings still need someone on call. Property managers and owner-operators across the west metro use us for recurring service — distribution repairs, code corrections from inspection reports, parking-lot and exterior lighting, equipment circuits — plus standby generators and critical power where the building can't go dark. One number, a contractor who knows the building, documentation for the file.
How we bid
Send plans or a scope and the address. We return an itemized bid, not a lump sum you have to interrogate, and on design-assist work we'll walk the space with you first. The estimator you deal with is connected to the crew that shows up — that's what 25 years family-owned in the same market looks like. If the schedule moves, tell us; sequencing around other trades is normal on our jobs, not an extra.
