Watson Electrical PLAN ROOM > WATSON ENERGY > Ope Menu What Are Watson Electrical's Capabilities? We have a comprehensive range of electrical services. Regardless if you are seeking construction, multi-family, electrical maintenance, solar, or traffic signal services, our electrical capabilities work together to provide a thorough electrical construction process. Together, our capabilities are designed to provide the very best in electrical systems for our clients. Preconstruction Our preconstruction team is here to help you achieve the best project schedule, cost goals, and design intent. By determining the project needs, we can provide accurate estimates. The preconstruction process includes, but not limited to, reviewing documents, providing analysis, and evaluating. Prefabrication Our prefabrication operation allows us to prebuild many of the components that we use when building our electrical system. By having the parts made and then sent to the job site, we gain a decrease in the overall cost. Other benefits include increased labor efficiency, better material organization of materials, and reduced non-productive time. Virtual Design and Construction Technology now allows us to build the project virtually. By doing this, we can visually see if there are any issues or clashes in the design and correct them before we get into the field. These efforts increase our accuracy and quality. Safety The safety goal for us is "zero accidents." We achieve this by constant safety training and job site vigilance. Our safety department works with the team in the field to ensure that all safety requirements are being met and that each employee knows the value of safety. Technology In today's world, technology changes at a rapid pace. This change is true for the construction industry too. We utilize top construction software and equipment in our construction process.

Founded in 1935, the success of the company over the years is grounded in the purpose that originally started the company. Dick Watson wanted to bring electricity to eastern North Carolina during the depression. It was an opportunity to bring good to the community while times were bad. He was ahead of the curve. Dick Watson was interested in ‘what’s next?’. Watson Electrical looks for ‘what’s next?’ to bring opportunities to do good for our employees, customers and communities. The founding purpose has fueled the company to grow and expand. From our first location in Wilson, NC, to the North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia areas we now cover, we are devoted to our employees, customers, and our communities. Over the years, we have many examples of ‘what’s next?’ Watson started its apprenticeship program in the 1950s. We started using computers in the 1980s, programming our own accounting system and estimating system with labor factors. We developed a productivity system in the 1970s leading to advanced job cost accounting. Watson worked with East Carolina University to develop a Construction Management Training program in the 1990's. We began Prefab in the early 2000s. We started doing solar work in the early 2010s. Our newest venture is Watson University. Finding ‘What’s Next?’ insures we will perpetually do good for our employees, customers and communities. Work Safe. Work Smart. Work Together. #1Watson COMPANY NEWS Zachery Buckler - Winston-Salem Wins 2021 Apprentice Contest MORE NEWS TRAINING CAREERS / OPPORTUNITIES | CURRENT OPENINGS At Watson Electrical, we have a variety of employment opportunities to help you find the electric construction job that fits with your background and experience.
