02 / SERVICE AREA

Welsh service area.

From our Lake Charles shop.

Trucks dispatch out of 803 W Bayou Pines Dr, Ste D, Lake Charles, LA 70601. Most days a crew is already inside Calcasieu Parish on another job, so the drive is short. For after-hours calls we roll one out from the shop.

Layout and design work in Welsh is most common on new construction (a new farm home, a new shop), additions, and ag-operation builds where the loads are known up front and the electrical needs to be planned for the whole property. We work from architectural plans or site sketches, walk the property when there are plans plus existing conditions, and produce a one-line, panel schedule, and device layout sized to NEC 220 load calculations.

For rural new builds the design conversation usually covers service amperage (200A residential is standard; 400A is common when a shop, EV charger, and standby generator are in the plan), meter location (wall-mounted or pole-mounted), feeder routing to outbuildings (overhead versus buried, conductor sizing for the run length), and grounding electrode strategy. We model the loads, recommend the right service amperage, and lay out a panel and sub-panel arrangement that gives the property room to grow.

For commercial and ag work we work from prints, raise RFIs where the existing conditions diverge from the drawings, and coordinate with the GC and other trades. Output is a stamped-ready layout (we coordinate with a PE when stamping is required), a bill of materials, and a build schedule.

  Permits

Permits and inspections

Welsh is in Jefferson Davis Parish, and electrical permits for most addresses are issued by Jefferson Davis Parish Building and Inspection, with city-level permitting inside Welsh town limits for some scopes. We confirm jurisdiction before pulling. Permit work runs under LA Lic #73821. You do not touch the paperwork.

  Warranty

What's covered

Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee on every install. If our work fails because of how we put it in, we come back and fix it at no charge. Documented in writing at handoff and stays with the home.

04 / WHO TO HIRE

Why hiring a licensed electrician matters.

Here is the no-spin cut on electrical layout and design. Same answer we would give a friend in Westlake or Carlyss, whether or not we end up winning the job.

Hayes Electrical

A licensed electrician

LA-licensed master electrician walks every call. Family-owned, owner-led, based in Lake Charles.
Permits pulled under LA Lic #73821 and inspections coordinated with the Calcasieu, Jeff Davis, Allen, or Cameron Parish AHJ when the work calls for it.
Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee in writing. If our work fails, we come back and fix it. Stays with the home.
Insured and carrying workers' comp on every truck that rolls.
Quote on paper before we cut the first wire. The signed number is the number you pay.
A handyman

Unlicensed for electrical

No LA state electrical license. Can swap a fixture, cannot legally touch a panel, a service entrance, or a rewire.
No permits. When the parish or city audits the work later, it does not pass.
No real warranty. "Call me if it breaks" falls apart the day you actually need it.
If unlicensed work starts a fire, your homeowner policy can flat-out deny the claim.
Cash discount sometimes shows up on the invoice. So does the next problem.
DIY

Doing it yourself

Cheap right up until something goes sideways. Most jobs need a load calc, NEC compliance, and a permit.
A failed inspection sends you back to redo it. Selling the house later, the buyer's inspector flags it the same way.
No warranty. The replacement is on you.
Hot wiring is no joke. Most fatal home electrical accidents in this country are DIY.
If you genuinely know what you are doing, fine. If you do not, call us first.

What Southwest Louisiana says about our work

Real reviews from real customers across Lake Charles, Sulphur, Moss Bluff, and the surrounding parishes.

★★★★★

A group of men and woman that are talented and focused. All licensed. Their customer service is excellent. They were able to upgrade my electrical system for a house built in the 1970s. We removed outdated fluorescent lighting, and these were replaced with current LED canned lighting, expanded the circuit board and repaired the drywall hole that the old fluorescence left in the ceiling. When we asked for options, they gave us multiple options from which we discussed pros and cons of each. Lastly, they are honest, trustworthy, and reliable.

Hayes Electrical has earned my business in the future. They saved me hundreds of dollars by referring me to Entergy first after hearing what my electrical issues were. They could have made easy money on a service call, and then refer me to Entergy. Instead, they did the right thing and had me contact Entergy first. 5 stars Nice to see a company that didn't take advantage of a customer. ❤️1

We turned to the company for help to find out the reason why our generator stopped working, fix the problem and start it. We were served by Dorian, a very nice young man, a good specialist and a professional in his field. Everything went well, Dorian did diagnostics, invited a mechanic and our generator works. We recommend this company if you have problems with the generator.

They added my 50amp generator receptacle box outside my house, they also added an interlock and the generator breaker. I also had them add a 2nd 50amp receptacle, just below my panel, for a future vehicle lift and had them drop a CAT6 behind my tv, so I can play Xbox online without lagging. I would hire them again without thinking twice. They're extremely professional and reasonably priced.

Common questions for Electrical Layout and Design in Welsh

Do you do electrical design for new Welsh builds?

Yes. We work from architectural plans or walk the site, calculate loads per NEC 220, and produce a panel schedule, one-line, and device layout. The output is ready to permit and build from through the parish AHJ.

How do I know what service size I need for a new build?

A NEC 220 load calculation tells you. We model the loads (HVAC, well pump, appliances, EV, shop, standby generator, future growth) and size the service. For new rural builds with a shop and EV charger, 400A is often the right answer.

Do you stamp drawings?

For commercial work that requires a PE stamp we coordinate with a Louisiana professional engineer to stamp the drawings. For most residential designs in Welsh, stamping is not required.
