Company Background

General Power Construction Co. has been a cornerstone of Central Illinois since 1983, specializing in commercial and industrial construction. With deep roots dating back to 1979 in power generation and industrial maintenance, they bring decades of collective experience to every job. Their skilled team of union craftsmen and seasoned project managers operates from a dedicated facility near the airport, which includes a fabrication shop and warehouse for efficient project support. While their primary focus is on large-scale mechanical and process piping systems, structural fabrication, and equipment setting, their expertise in electrical services is comprehensive. For Peoria residents, this means access to the same rigorous standards and problem-solving approach used on major industrial projects, applied to ensure the safety and reliability of your home's electrical system.

Questions and Answers

What is involved in your electrical inspection service for homeowners?

Our electrical inspections are thorough evaluations conducted by experienced union electricians. We go beyond a simple visual check, systematically testing circuits, verifying grounding and bonding, inspecting panels for wear or corrosion, and ensuring all installations meet current National Electrical Code (NEC) standards. Given our background in industrial and power generation work, we're particularly adept at identifying complex or hidden issues that others might miss, providing you with a detailed report and clear recommendations for any necessary repairs or upgrades.

Can you help with common Peoria issues like damaged underground cables or meter corrosion?

Absolutely. These are frequent concerns in our area due to soil conditions and weather. For suspected underground cable damage, we use specialized testing equipment to locate faults and assess the integrity of the line before any excavation, saving you time and disruption. For electrical meter corrosion—a serious safety and efficiency hazard—we perform a safe inspection of the meter base and service entrance cables. If corrosion is found, we can coordinate with the utility to safely replace the damaged components, ensuring a reliable connection and preventing potential power interruptions or fire risks.

Your company does large industrial work. Are you available for smaller residential electrical jobs?

Yes, we are. While our reputation is built on major commercial and industrial projects, our commitment to the Peoria community extends to residential services. The same project management discipline, union craftsmanship, and attention to detail we apply to a power plant are brought to your home. Our team is skilled at scaling our processes for residential needs, ensuring your project receives expert care, clear communication, and a lasting, code-compliant result, whether it's an inspection, repair, or upgrade.
