One electrical contractor from rough-in to finish
A multifamily or new-construction project needs an electrical trade that can stay on it start to finish — rough-in wiring while the building is open, then trim, fixtures and unit panels as it closes in, without falling off the critical path in between. Shock Stop wires townhouses, condos and low-rise multifamily buildings and new-construction commercial space through both stages, working from the same drawings and specs the whole way so rough-in decisions don't turn into finish-stage rework.
Built around the builder's schedule, not ours
On a multifamily build, the electrical trade either keeps pace with framing, drywall and other trades or becomes the bottleneck everyone is waiting on. We scope the job against your build schedule up front — unit counts, phasing, and the sequence other trades need to follow us — and staff and stage the work to hit those milestones, not just to finish the scope eventually.
Permits and inspection, handled per building
Multifamily and new-construction electrical runs through the same commercial electrical trade permit process as any other commercial project — calculated against construction value, with a provincial Safety Codes Council levy on top, rather than a flat homeowner fee. As your licensed contractor, we pull the permit, coordinate with any stamped engineering drawings your project already has, and carry the City of Calgary inspection (or the Alberta Safety Codes process outside city limits) through to close-out, unit by unit and building by building.
What it costs — scoped to your project, not a per-door guess
Multifamily electrical pricing depends on unit count, unit mix, finish level and how much of the site is fed from one service versus several — factors that make a generic per-door number more misleading than useful. We quote from your drawings and unit schedule so the number reflects your actual project, and we're up front about it before work starts rather than adjusting as we go.
Why builders and developers choose Shock Stop
We already do this work as part of our commercial fit-out and new-construction practice — one licensed crew that shows up for rough-in, comes back for finish, and carries the permit and inspection paperwork so it isn't something your project manager has to chase. Clean, labelled panels in every unit, a fixed quote scoped to your drawings, and a crew that plans around your schedule instead of the other way around.
We take on multifamily and new-construction electrical in Calgary, from townhouse rows to condo buildings and low-rise apartments in the city's growing suburbs, and in Airdrie, Cochrane, Chestermere and Okotoks. It is the same crew, permit handling and inspection discipline as our commercial fit-out work, scaled across units and phases instead of a single tenant space.
Multifamily & New Construction Electrical — your questions, answered
Do you wire multifamily and new-construction projects in Calgary?
Yes. We wire multifamily buildings and new-construction commercial space — rough-in through finish — working to the project schedule and pulling the City of Calgary electrical permit, with the inspection carried through to close-out.
How much does multifamily electrical cost in Calgary?
It depends on unit count, unit mix and finish level, which makes a generic per-door number more misleading than useful. We quote from your drawings and unit schedule so the number reflects your actual project, given up front before work starts.
Do you handle the electrical permit for a multifamily or new-construction project?
Yes. Multifamily and new-construction electrical runs through the commercial electrical trade permit process — calculated against construction value with a provincial Safety Codes Council levy — which we pull as your licensed contractor, coordinating with any stamped engineering drawings your project already has.
Can you keep pace with our build schedule across multiple units?
That's how we scope the job. We review your drawings and unit schedule up front, then staff and stage rough-in and finish work to fit the sequence other trades need — so electrical stays on the critical path instead of becoming the delay.
Do you work on townhouses and condos as well as apartment buildings?
Yes. Multifamily covers townhouse rows, condo buildings and low-rise apartment projects — rough-in through finish in every unit, plus common-area and site electrical, coordinated with your build schedule and permit process.
Do you do multifamily electrical outside Calgary — Airdrie, Cochrane, Okotoks?
Yes. Alongside Calgary we take on multifamily and new-construction electrical in Airdrie, Cochrane, Chestermere, Okotoks and the surrounding communities, running the same rough-in-to-finish process and coordinating the applicable municipal or Alberta Safety Codes permit path.
