Services Directory FAQs

Common questions about our service categories, capabilities, and how to choose the right service for your facility.

01What types of commercial electrical services do you offer?

We offer 14 specialized commercial electrical services organized into 6 categories: Power & Distribution (switchgear, panel upgrades, transformers), Construction & Civil (electrical construction, trenching, tenant improvements), EV & Energy (charging station installation), Lighting & Site (LED retrofits, parking lot lighting, signage), Service & Reliability (generators, maintenance, disaster relief), and Specialty services (UVC air purification). Each service is designed specifically for commercial and industrial facilities that require professional execution and minimal downtime.

02Do you serve residential customers or only commercial clients?

We exclusively serve commercial and industrial clients. Our crews, equipment, scheduling systems, and processes are specifically designed for business environments where uptime, coordination, and inspection-ready workmanship are critical. This commercial-only focus allows us to deliver the specialized expertise and professional execution that high-stakes facilities require.

03How do I know which service category is right for my project?

Start by identifying your primary need: power capacity issues (Power & Distribution), new construction or underground work (Construction & Civil), vehicle charging infrastructure (EV & Energy), lighting improvements (Lighting & Site), ongoing support or emergency response (Service & Reliability), or specialized systems (Specialty). If you're unsure, contact us for a consultation, we'll review your facility's needs and guide you to the right service category. Many projects span multiple categories, and we coordinate everything under one contract.

04What does your typical project process look like?

Our proven 5-step process ensures consistent results across all service categories: (1) Site walk and scope alignment to understand your constraints and priorities, (2) Detailed proposal built for quick approval by decision makers, (3) Permit coordination and strategic scheduling to minimize disruption, (4) Clean commercial execution by licensed crews with inspection-ready workmanship, and (5) Professional closeout with testing, documentation, and facilities team handoff. This process adapts to each service type while maintaining our quality standards.

05Can you provide a rough estimate of project costs?

Project costs vary significantly based on service type, scope, site conditions, and scheduling requirements. For example, LED retrofits might range from several thousand to tens of thousands depending on square footage, while switchgear or transformer projects can range from $50,000 to $200,000+ for complex installations. EV charging projects typically start around $15,000-$30,000 per station for Level 2, with DC fast charging requiring larger investments. We provide transparent, detailed proposals after our site walk so you understand exactly what you're getting and why. Contact us for a free consultation and project-specific estimate.

06Can you work after-hours or on weekends to avoid disrupting our business operations?

Absolutely. Many of our commercial clients require after-hours, weekend, or phased scheduling to maintain operations during construction. We regularly work nights and early mornings for auto dealerships, retail centers, gas stations, and other businesses that can't afford downtime. Our crews are experienced in working efficiently during off-peak hours while maintaining quality and safety standards. We'll coordinate a schedule that minimizes impact on your customers and staff.

07What geographic areas do you serve in Southern California?

Headquartered in Westlake Village, California, our strongest local presence spans Southern California, including Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, Santa Barbara, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Kern Counties, plus surrounding areas. Our service coverage extends well beyond these eight core counties across the broader Southern California region. For multi-location clients and larger-scale projects, we also provide nationwide service, delivering the same inspection-ready workmanship and local-level attention to commercial facilities across the country.

08How experienced is your team with commercial electrical projects?

Our team has extensive experience serving commercial-only clients across multiple industries. We're licensed, insured, and specialized in the unique demands of commercial electrical work, from coordinating with property managers and facilities teams to navigating complex site logistics and maintaining operations during installation. Our crews are trained specifically for commercial environments where safety, coordination, and professional presentation are non-negotiable. We've completed hundreds of projects for auto dealerships, retail centers, industrial facilities, office buildings, and more.

09Do you handle permits, inspections, and coordination with utility companies?

Yes. We manage the entire permitting process, coordinate with local building departments and utility companies, and ensure all work passes inspection on the first submission. This includes electrical permits, trenching/excavation permits where needed, and utility coordination for service upgrades or new connections. We handle the administrative burden so you can focus on your business, and we ensure compliance with all local codes and regulations.

10Can you coordinate with our existing contractors, architects, or property management teams?

Absolutely. We regularly collaborate with general contractors, architects, HVAC contractors, property managers, and facilities teams. We understand that commercial projects require tight coordination between multiple trades and stakeholders. We communicate proactively, attend coordination meetings, work from architectural plans, and ensure our scope integrates seamlessly with other work happening on-site. Many of our clients appreciate having a single electrical contractor who can coordinate across multiple service categories.

11What industries and facility types do you specialize in?

We specialize in 23 distinct commercial and industrial sectors across six categories: Automotive and Fleet (dealerships, gas stations, auto repair, car washes, convenience stores, fleet facilities), Retail, Hospitality and Food Service (shopping centers, restaurants, grocery stores, hotels), Commercial and Property Management (office buildings, multi-site portfolios, parking structures), Industrial, Warehouse and Cold Chain (warehouses, manufacturing, cold storage, data centers), Institutional and Public Sector (healthcare, schools, government, municipal facilities), and Construction and Specialty (ground-up developments, sports fields). Our commercial-only focus and deep Southern California roots mean we understand the unique electrical needs, operational constraints, and uptime requirements of every sector we serve.

12How quickly can you start a project after we approve the proposal?

Project start times depend on scope, permits, and scheduling requirements. For smaller service work and maintenance, we can often mobilize within days. Larger projects requiring permits, utility coordination, or equipment lead times typically start within 2-4 weeks. Emergency response and disaster relief services can begin immediately when needed. During our initial consultation, we'll provide a realistic timeline based on your specific project requirements and any constraints.

13Do you provide ongoing maintenance and support after project completion?

Yes. We offer commercial electrical maintenance services as one of our core categories, providing ongoing support for facilities that need reliable, professional electrical maintenance. This includes preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, emergency repairs, and system upgrades. Many clients start with a specific project and transition to ongoing maintenance relationships. We can also provide documentation and training to your facilities team for self-maintenance of simpler systems.

14What makes Optimum Energy Services different from other electrical contractors?

Four key differentiators set us apart: (1) Commercial-only focus, our entire operation is built for business environments across 23 industries, not residential work, (2) Deep Southern California roots with nationwide reach, headquartered in Westlake Village with local teams who know SoCal's permitting, utility providers, and code requirements, plus the capacity to serve multi-location clients nationwide, (3) Comprehensive service categories, we handle six distinct service categories under one contract, eliminating the need for multiple vendors, and (4) Inspection-ready execution, our work passes inspection the first time with clean documentation and professional presentation. We're not just electricians; we're Southern California's commercial electrical specialists with the expertise to support your facilities anywhere.
