Continental takes charge of every type of electrical project, combining
innovative solutions with savings on equipment and installation. Count on
us for complete responsibility for design and installation of lighting,
motor control, co-generation and other complex electrical systems. Our professional
engineers, designers and electricians all contribute to ensuring our performance
meets your expectations, your schedule and your budget. |

Creativity, knowledge and experience are the foundation of our preconstruction
support. We provide complete budgeting services from conceptual scope through
bid documents, then work with the architect and engineers to fine-tune the
design to meet desired budget criteria. We have fully integrated our computerized
estimating and purchasing departments for timely, accurate estimates. Before
construction proceeds, we review documents to clarify values and identify
unwanted or unintended costs.
|

Continental's construction services are the most comprehensive in the industry.
They include UPS and generators, energy management,
general circuiting, life safety, lighting, motor controls, and power distribution
for tenant development and shell & core applications.
|

Our organization is heavily weighted in engineering and design skills, which
means we can offer a complete range of in-house capabilities rarely found
in an electrical construction company. Our design team, which includes certified
electrical engineers, resolves such issues as calculation of the loads for
lighting systems, motors and general circuitry to properly size motor control
centers, switchgear, transformers, distribution panels, conduit, feeder
wire and general circuit wiring. We maintain particular expertise in designing
installations for hazardous locations, where conformance to special municipal
and local codes, as well as grounding and fusing are even more critical.
|

Our facility-dedicated crews ensure a building's electrical systems function
at peak performance, while freeing owners and managers from daily maintenance
obligations. If a problem arises, our on-site personnel react quickly to
minimize its impact. Each crew member has the skills, testing equipment
and tools to service air handling, process-power control, electrical and
computer wiring systems. You receive all of the advantages of such vigilant
service at far less cost. Our crews shrink or expand as required. You pay
for what you need only when you need it.
