How bidding works with us
- Send plans to info@mclelectric.org — full sets, MEP pages, or even a napkin scope for budgetary numbers.
- Itemized proposals — line-item scope so you can level bids honestly, with exclusions stated plainly instead of buried.
- Budgetary pricing fast — need a rough number for an owner conversation? We turn those around quickly (recent example: a 14-townhome ground-up budget within days).
What working with MCL looks like
- COIs issued same-day on request
- Permits, inspections & ComEd applications handled — including service applications and temp power
- Draw-schedule and title-company invoicing — we know the First American drill

- Licensed (SE7927, City of Chicago) & fully insured — GL and workers' comp
- Registered with villages across the North Shore and suburbs
- Low-voltage rough-in coordination (data, security, fire alarm conduit)
- Punch lists closed fast — we want the next project, not a fight over the last one
