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 930 open jobs, with an estimated $4.9M to $7.4M of electrical work in play.

The median job is about $16K, and 67 jobs are $100K or more. The busiest ZIP is 60614, with 65 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 930 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.
