Commercial Electrical Services We Provide
Our commercial electrical division handles the full scope of what New Orleans businesses need, from routine upgrades to complex new installations. Whether you’re expanding electrical capacity or bringing aging infrastructure into NEC code compliance, we have the crew for it.
Panel Upgrades & Subpanel Installations
Frequent breaker trips and expanding equipment loads are the two most common triggers for a commercial panel upgrade. We size and install service panels and subpanels to meet current demand and give your operation room to grow.
Generator Installation with Automatic Transfer Switches
An automatic transfer switch detects a grid outage and activates your standby generator within seconds. No manual intervention is required. For New Orleans businesses, that kind of continuity isn’t a luxury.
Wiring & Rewiring
We handle commercial wiring for new construction and retrofit projects alike, including dedicated circuits for specialty equipment and GFCI and AFCI protection where code requires it.
Lighting & Energy Efficiency
From interior office lighting to exterior security applications, our lighting installations are designed with energy efficiency in mind. LED lighting retrofits can help reduce operating costs without sacrificing visibility or safety.
Surge Protection & EV Chargers
Whole-facility surge protection guards commercial equipment against voltage spikes and unstable utility supply. We also install commercial EV charging stations as businesses prepare for the shift toward electric fleets and customer charging.
Emergency & Exit Lighting
Code-compliant emergency and exit lighting is non-negotiable for commercial occupancy. We install, inspect, and service these systems to keep your building inspection-ready.

“We have a few Older properties around the city and whenever we have an issue with the air conditioning Natals Is always able to work with us. From the nice lady who handles the appointments, down to our favorite technician Nidal, Who seems to always figure out what’s going on, the experience could not be better.”- Craig L.

“I had requested a service repair an old on demand hot water heater, but there were additional problems with it when Stebe went out to try and clean it so it it made more sense to buy a new one from Natals. Options and details were clearly explained and the price was reasonable. I am on the schedule for installation next week and I expect everything will go well. They previously did a great job on replacing my AC and heat.”- Melinda N.
-
“Amazing service. They came in and diagnosed the problem immediately. Pricing was clear and fair. The tech explained everything so clearly and understandably.”- Dennise R.
-
“They gave a good estimate. They were prompt on time and very curious. And most of all did a great job in one day and cleaned up afterwards. I really appreciated that they wore a uniform with the company name as well as their names. I would highly recommend them. Thanks guys.”- Stephanie P.

“Jill is phenomenal! We will never use anyone else except Natal's. They are fast, dependable, and 100% honest! And they're locally owned. We started with a national chain plumbing service and were quoted an astronomical quote for stuff we completely didn't need. Jill at Natal's got us fixed up in no time! She deserves a raise!”- Dano H.
-
“Jill performed a plumbing inspection to determine any possible leaks since SWBNO advised me of water running continuously since February 2025 using about 300 gallons per day in recent months. Very professional and knowledgeable. Found the problem quickly. Jill is very efficient and answered all questions to our satisfaction.”- Carol T.

“Justin was excellent to deal with. I can’t say enough good about John F and his professionalism and customer service-excellent! I highly recommend Justin, John, and Natals.”- Bryan M.
-
“No one likes calling a business after hours for a service call, but I can assure you it was money well spent! My air conditioner went out and Fernando was able to advise me that it was not the air conditioner, but the electrical. It was an easy fix, and he was very knowledgeable about what needed to be done!”- Vince M.
-
“My AC went out, and when I called, the only service was after hours, but they promised to keep me on the list for regular hours service. Not 30 minutes later, they were able to book me for regular service, and the technician arrived fewer than 30 minutes later. My technician, Fernando, was excellent-polite, professional, and skilled. He was able to fix our issue and talked to us about longer term options given the age of our system.”- Karen F.
Commercial Electrical Challenges Specific to New Orleans
New Orleans isn’t a generic market for commercial electrical work. The combination of aging building stock, a hurricane-prone climate, and year-round high humidity creates conditions that accelerate wear on electrical systems and demand a higher standard of care.
Historic Buildings & Aging Infrastructure
Commercial properties built before modern electrical codes may have aluminum wiring, undersized service panels, or outdated wiring insulation. As equipment loads increase, these systems present real fire and reliability risks. Historic properties in the French Quarter, Marigny, and similar neighborhoods also require electricians comfortable working within existing architectural constraints. Running new circuits without disturbing original building fabric takes coordination and experience.
We’ve served historic and modern commercial properties across this region since 1974. That’s not a marketing line. It reflects the actual range of buildings our team has worked in over five decades in this market.
Humidity, Flooding, & Corrosion
High humidity and the threat of flooding accelerate corrosion of electrical components throughout New Orleans commercial buildings. Junction boxes, breaker panels, and conduit runs in unconditioned spaces are especially vulnerable. Regular inspection and appropriate weatherproofing practices aren’t optional here. They’re the baseline for keeping systems reliable.
Hurricane Season & Grid Vulnerability
Every hurricane season brings a predictable window of elevated risk for commercial outages. Businesses that invest in standby generator systems with automatic transfer switches and schedule pre-season electrical inspections can be in a far better position to maintain operations when the grid goes down. For New Orleans commercial clients, generator integration isn’t an edge case. It’s standard infrastructure planning.
