The Chicago electrical market

How electricians win these jobs

Buildedly tracks new construction and remodeling activity across Chicago and Cook County every day and picks out the jobs that need electrical work: new builds, remodels, tenant build-outs, service upgrades and panel changes. Right now that is 443 open jobs, with an estimated $10M to $15M of electrical work in play.

The median job is about $20K, and 111 jobs are $100K or more. The busiest ZIP is 60605, with 24 open electrical jobs.

Electrical is a rough-in trade. GCs usually pick their electrical sub after plans are approved and framing is underway, which is why jobs that moved in the last 14 days are flagged to call first. All 443 are approved and moving.

Ask where they are with rough-in and whether the panel and service are spoken for. Electrical is often bid late and in a hurry. Every lead shows the general contractor or owner to call, so you are pitching a real job instead of buying a shared form fill.
