⚡Frequently Asked Questions

🏗️ Commercial Electrical

Do you do commercial electrical work in Golden and Denver CO?

✅ Yes — commercial is actually our focus. Lukas Electric works with restaurants, food service operations, warehouses, and light industrial properties across Golden, Denver, Lakewood, Arvada, and Westminster. We do the full scope: buildouts, panel upgrades, equipment circuits, EV chargers, and everything in between. If you're a business owner or property manager in the Denver metro, give us a call at (970) 610-0440.

Can you handle the electrical for a restaurant or commercial kitchen?

🍽️ Absolutely. Restaurant electrical is one of our core specialties — commercial kitchen wiring, hood system circuits, high-amperage equipment, dedicated circuits for refrigeration and HVAC, and the permitting process that goes with all of it. We've done electrical work for established restaurant brands right here in the Denver metro, including Texas de Brazil. We know what a commercial kitchen demands and we get it done right the first time.

What size commercial jobs does Lukas Electric take on?

📐 We focus on small commercial — restaurants, retail spaces, small warehouses, light industrial, and tenant buildouts. Think 1,000 to 20,000 square feet. We're not the right fit for big general contractors running massive new construction. But if you're a business owner or property manager who needs a licensed electrician that shows up, communicates, and doesn't disappear mid-job — that's exactly what we do. Schedule a walkthrough and we'll give you a straight number.

Do you install EV chargers for businesses and commercial properties?

⚡ Yes. We install Level 2 and DC fast chargers for commercial properties, parking facilities, and fleet operations throughout Golden, Denver, and the surrounding metro. We handle the panel assessment, permit pulling, and full installation. Most commercial EV charger installs wrap up in one to two days depending on your existing electrical setup. Call us at (970) 610-0440 to get a site assessment on the books.

How much does a commercial panel upgrade cost in the Denver area?

💰 It depends on your current service size and what you need to get to. For most small commercial properties in Golden and Denver, panel upgrades run somewhere between $2,500 and $8,000. The range is wide because every building is different — an older warehouse and a new restaurant buildout have completely different starting points. We'll walk your space, assess what you've got, and give you a real quote. No guesswork, no padded estimates.

Are you licensed and insured for commercial work in Colorado?

🪪 Yes. Lukas Electric is fully licensed and insured for commercial electrical in Colorado. We pull all required permits and work directly with inspectors in Jefferson County, Denver County, and surrounding jurisdictions. You don't have to manage that — it's part of the job. Everything gets done to code so you never have a problem at inspection.

Which areas do you serve for commercial electrical?

📍 Our main commercial service area is Golden, Denver, Lakewood, Wheat Ridge, Arvada, and Westminster. We also serve Summit County and Frisco for the right projects. If you're a property manager or business owner anywhere in the Jefferson County or Denver metro area, reach out — we'll let you know if your location works for us.

What's involved in getting a quote for a commercial electrical project?

📋 For most commercial jobs we prefer a quick walkthrough. It takes 20 to 30 minutes, we get eyes on your existing panel and service, and we can give you an accurate number instead of a ballpark guess. After the site visit, most proposals come back within 24 to 48 hours. Call (970) 610-0440 or fill out the contact form and we'll get something on the calendar fast.

Can you work alongside a general contractor on a remodel or tenant buildout?

🤝 Yes — we coordinate with GCs regularly on commercial remodels and tenant buildouts throughout Golden and Denver. We know how to work within a construction schedule, we keep the GC in the loop, and we don't let electrical become the bottleneck that delays the whole project. If you're a GC looking for a reliable electrical sub in the Jefferson County or Denver area, reach out.

Do you handle warehouse and light industrial electrical?

🏭 Yes. Warehouses and light industrial are a big part of what we do. Three-phase power, high-amperage equipment circuits, lighting system upgrades, panel work — we handle it. Whether you're standing up a new operation or upgrading an existing facility in the Denver metro, we have the experience to get it done right and to code. Call us at (970) 610-0440 to talk through your project.

🏠 Residential Electrical

Do you do any residential electrical work?

🔌 We do select residential work — primarily panel upgrades, EV charger installs, and electrical for home remodels and additions.

Call (970) 610-0440 and tell us what you're working on.

Can you install an EV charger at my home in the Denver area?
