Tenant improvement work requires accuracy, planning, and dependable coordination. Many commercial spaces are upgraded on tight schedules, and electrical delays can affect other trades, inspection dates, and tenant move in plans. Big Ant Electrical understands these demands and provides commercial electrical services Houston clients trust for consistent quality.

Why Electrical Work Matters in Tenant Improvements

Electrical requirements often change when a new tenant moves into a space. Retail stores may need new lighting and display power. Offices often need more outlets, data support, and balanced circuits for equipment. Restaurants need dedicated power for appliances, safety lighting, and emergency systems. Even small adjustments must be completed correctly to avoid hazards and ensure compliance with inspection standards.

A commercial electrician in Houston TX helps prevent safety risks, code violations, and future operational issues. Electrical load, panel capacity, circuit planning, grounding, fixture placement, and equipment requirements must all be evaluated and updated where necessary. Incorrect or outdated electrical systems can cause frequent outages, damaged equipment, and failed inspections that delay openings.

With Big Ant Electrical, clients receive organized planning, clear communication, and dependable work that supports the long term performance of the space.


All Residential Services


Our Tenant Improvement Electrical Services

We provide a full range of electrical services for tenant improvements, with solutions designed for both small and large commercial properties.

Electrical Layout Changes

When a tenant updates the layout of a space, the electrical system must adapt. We relocate circuits, outlets, switches, and fixtures to match new floor plans. Our team ensures all installations follow code requirements and meet the tenant’s operational needs.

Lighting Upgrades

Lighting is one of the most noticeable elements in a commercial environment. We install general lighting, accent lighting, track lighting, display lighting, energy saving LED solutions, and new lighting controls. Retail environments often need enhanced lighting to showcase products, while office spaces benefit from efficient lighting that improves comfort and productivity.

Outlet and Circuit Additions

Tenants often need more power than previous occupants. We add circuits for computers, equipment, machinery, displays, check out areas, and specialty appliances. All circuits are sized correctly to prevent overloads and ensure steady operation.

Panel Evaluations and Updates

Some spaces require service upgrades or panel adjustments to support new electrical loads. We review the existing panel, determine whether upgrades are needed, and complete any required improvements. This step is essential for safe use of new electrical equipment.

Equipment Power and Dedicated Circuits

Retail and commercial tenants often bring equipment that requires dedicated power. We install circuits for refrigeration, point of sale systems, office equipment, restaurant appliances, display lighting, security systems, and other electrical demands.

Emergency and Safety Lighting

Safe egress lighting is required for many commercial spaces. We install and update emergency lighting, exit lights, backup fixtures, and related wiring to help ensure safety and compliance.

Code Corrections and Inspection Support

Commercial remodels often uncover electrical work that does not meet current standards. We correct wiring issues, replace unsafe fixtures, bring systems up to code, and coordinate with inspectors. This helps prevent delays in occupancy and avoids repeated inspection visits.

Retail Remodel Electrical Services


Retail spaces require careful electrical planning to support customer flow, product displays, lighting needs, and point of sale functions. Our services support both small shops and large retail stores.
