Auburn’s Most Trusted Commercial Electrical Contractor for Restaurants, Retail, Offices & More

Design-Build Expertise Saves Time & Money

When you work with Ostlund Electric, you get design and installation under one roof. Our team includes experienced estimators and a Master Electrician who can engineer electrical systems during the planning phase. This integrated approach often reduces costs by 15-20% compared to traditional design-bid-build. Whether you need a complete office building electrical system design or a retail store electrical upgrade, our design-build approach streamlines your commercial construction project.

What this means for you:

  • Single point of contact from concept to completion
  • Value engineering options that meet code and budget
  • Faster permit approval (we know local inspectors)
  • No change order surprises from “unforeseen” issues
  • Coordination with your general contractor or architect
