Prefabrication

Chapel Electric’s prefabrication shop contains the latest fabrication tools and specialty equipment and is supported by our in-house virtual construction designers and BIM experts. A majority of the production is done in a controlled environment specifically designed to manufacture and assemble the individual prefabricated components.

The controlled shop environment allows us to include additional quality checks and perform more comprehensive reviews than possible on a job site. It also helps improve the safety of the entire project by limiting variables and keeping field worksites tidy and free of clutter.

There are many benefits to using prefabrication, sometimes called modular construction, on electrical projects:

  • Improved quality control
  • Not dependent on local skilled workforce
  • Optimized workflow for increased production
  • Cleaner job sites
  • Improved safety
  • Customized system and component design
  • Streamlined installation and expedited schedules
  • Greater certainty on both build times and costs
