Our Work
Benefits
Future-Ready Electrical Solutions
We deploy modern controls tailored to commercial needs—0–10V dimmers for LED fixtures, vacancy/occupancy sensors for code compliance, and networkable smart switches where scheduling or remote control helps operations. For studios and retail, we match dimmers to drivers, verify low-end trim, and mitigate flicker. Systems can scale from a few rooms to multi-tenant suites, integrating with BMS or Wi‑Fi for analytics and demand response.
Compliance Made Easy
Shaffer Construction navigates LADBS permitting and ensures your upgrades meet the California Electrical Code (based on NEC), Title 24 Part 6 lighting controls, and ADA reach-range considerations. We handle documentation, plan check coordination when needed, and schedule inspections. Our team designs device layouts that satisfy GFCI placement rules, multi-level lighting control, and shutoff requirements common to nonresidential spaces.
Exceptional Craftsmanship Every Time
We install commercial spec-grade devices from trusted brands, choosing the correct type for each location: GFCI/WR receptacles outdoors, industrial-duty outlets in kitchens, and compatible dimmers for LED fixtures. We use copper pigtails, compression or lever connectors, and torque to manufacturer specs. Every device is labeled and tested for polarity and ground impedance to support safety and long-term reliability.
Customized Planning & Design
We start with how your business operates—customer flow, task lighting, POS placement, and back-of-house needs—then tailor outlet placement, switch grouping, and dimmer zones. We verify ADA reach-range and clearances, plan dedicated circuits for high-load equipment, and separate lighting controls by use area. The result is a layout that looks clean, functions intuitively, and supports future changes.
What We Offer
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to replace outlets or switches in my Atwater Village shop?+
Like-for-like replacements in the same location may be considered maintenance, but new circuits, relocated devices, or added load typically require an LADBS electrical permit and inspection. We evaluate your scope, advise on requirements, and if needed, handle permitting—most permits complete within 2–4 weeks.
Can you work after hours so I don’t lose business?+
Yes. We commonly schedule evenings, early mornings, or weekends to keep your doors open. Most device replacements take 1–2 hours per area, and we can stage the work to maintain temporary lighting and POS power. You’ll get a plan that minimizes downtime and dust.
Which dimmers are best for my LED track and accent lighting?+
Compatibility depends on the LED drivers. Many retail track systems use either 0–10V or phase-cut (ELV/forward) control. We verify driver specs, test for flicker and low-end trim, and select matched dimmers. If needed, we provide a sample demo so you can see performance before committing.
What does a typical commercial outlet or dimmer upgrade cost here?+
Expect about per device depending on type (GFCI, smart, 0–10V dimmer), box conditions, and accessibility. Volume pricing applies for larger scopes. If panel capacity is limited or circuits need rework, we’ll price that separately and offer options to fit your budget.
