Built from the Ground Up
We're not just electricians who work on construction sites. We are construction people who do electrical work.
A Division of Caforio Development Group
CDG Electric was formed as the electrical division of Caforio Development Group — a Southern California development and construction company with deep roots in ground-up residential and commercial projects. That lineage shapes everything about how we operate.
Most electrical contractors come up through the trade. We came up through development. That means we understand entitlements, utility coordination, construction schedules, and the downstream cost of delays. We speak the language of builders because we are builders.
We understand entitlements, utility coordination, and the downstream cost of delays — because we've lived them from the developer's side.
What a Builder's Perspective Actually Means
Preconstruction Involvement
We engage early — reviewing plans, flagging conflicts, coordinating with utilities, and providing realistic scope and budget input before the first shovel hits dirt.
Schedule Accountability
We know what a delayed rough-in costs a production builder. We staff and sequence our work to protect the schedule, not just complete our scope.
Scope Ownership
We don't hand off problems. If something is in our scope, we own it from design coordination through final inspection and punch.
Communication That Fits Your Workflow
Whether you use Procore, Buildertrend, or a shared spreadsheet, we adapt to your systems — not the other way around.
