WELSH
Welsh service from Hayes Electrical. Same-day response on most calls. Call (337) 570-2327.
Hayes Electrical handles low-voltage network wiring for homes and businesses in Welsh, and the surrounding Southwest Louisiana area. Licensed, bonded, insured, with our Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee on every job.
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.
Low-voltage work in Welsh covers Cat6 ethernet, coaxial for older cable installs, fiber where runs are long enough to need it, security camera cabling, doorbell and intercom wiring, audio-video cabling, and the long runs to outbuildings (a shop ethernet drop, a barn camera feed) that rural addresses commonly want. Rural homes often have no structured wiring at all, so we are starting from scratch.
For Cat6 we keep runs under the 100m (328 foot) maximum per TIA-568 and we separate low-voltage from line-voltage by 12 inches or with code-compliant separation. We use plenum-rated cable in air-handling spaces, riser-rated elsewhere as required, and we terminate on keystone jacks or patch panels with verified continuity. For runs to outbuildings beyond 100m we pull single-mode fiber and convert at each end with media converters. We use direct-burial conduit for the outdoor segment and we ground any shielded cable per NEC 800.
For Welsh addresses we coordinate with the homeowner on the demarc location (where the structured wiring lives) and what gets connected to it. We do not provide network configuration or security camera commissioning unless that is in the agreed scope – our job is the cabling, the terminations, and a labeled patch panel.
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.
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.
Here is the no-spin cut on low-voltage network wiring. Same answer we would give a friend in Westlake or Carlyss, whether or not we end up winning the job.
Times are typical, not guaranteed. Traffic, weather, and parts on hand can shift them. We will tell you a real window when you call.

Dorian Hayes started Hayes Electrical because he believed homeowners deserved better than what most contractors give them. A licensed master electrician with seven years of experience, he and his wife Juliet built the ...
Real reviews from real customers across Lake Charles, Sulphur, Moss Bluff, and the surrounding parishes.
Not sure | $2,000+ Great services. Mackenzie and Hayden were very courteous and respectful. They worked with our schedule to make sure they didn't turn off the power when we were doing things that required electricity. We definitely would hire Hayes again.
My experience with Hayse Electrical was a very possitive one. At my first meeting with Dorian and I explaining my situation with my problem I was having, he explained what the company was going to do in very precise detail, was able to quote me a price right away and set up an appointment in the meeting. On the day of my appointment McKenzie and Hayden called me ahead of time to say they were on their way and arrived when said time. They both worked continually all day til all the work was done. Both men were very nice and worked well together and alone. I would recommend Hayes Electrical, Dorian, Mckenzie and Hayden and I would use this company again.
I've had the privilege of getting to know Juliet and Dorian, and what stands out most is how much they care about people. They are genuine, kind, and passionate about doing things the right way qualities that shine through in the way they serve their customers and lead their company. In an industry where trust matters, Juliet and Dorian embody integrity, authenticity, and heart. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for electricians who treat their customers like family.
Great price Having an older home, my wife and I were extremely concerned when we started experiencing electrical issues. We were referred to Dorian by a friend! He came out and inspected the problem within a day and gave us multiple solutions to the problem that best fit our budget. Dorian and his wife are incredibly personable! Highly recommend!
Yes. For runs under 100m (about 328 feet) Cat6 works fine. For longer runs to outbuildings we pull single-mode fiber and convert at each end with media converters, which gives you full speed past the Cat6 distance limit.
Yes. We pull Cat6 to each camera location for Power over Ethernet (PoE), terminate at a central patch panel near the NVR location, and ground shielded cable per NEC 800. We do not commission cameras or NVRs unless that is in the agreed scope.
Our scope is the cabling, terminations, and labeled patch panel. Network configuration (router, switch, access points) is a separate scope - we can recommend an IT contractor or do basic setup if it is in the agreed scope.
