Our electrical contractor license (TECL #39622) is statewide. We file the permit, handle the utility paperwork and meet the inspector.

    How to apply: Travis County requires a development permit for most development outside city limits, applied for through MGO Connect. Construction or substantial improvement of a commercial establishment, public building or multifamily building over three units needs a Fire Marshal building permit. The Fire Marshal's plan submittal rules ask for a note that electrical work will meet NFPA 70 (NEC) and a full electrical drawing set.

  • 03

    What to know locally: From January 1, 2026, commercial building work in unincorporated Travis County must meet the 2021 International Fire Code as adopted by the county. Travis County's permit pages list development, septic and Fire Marshal permits, not a separate electrical permit.

  • 04

    Utility coordination: Austin Energy (serves Del Valle in whole or part). Austin Energy requires an Electric Service Planning Application (ESPA) for new service and for changes to an existing service.
