Shop & Shed Wiring Electrician in Longview TX in Tyler, Longview & East Texas
East Texas is shop country. Metal buildings, pole barns, and backyard workshops go up every week on acreage around Tyler, Longview, and the counties in between — and an extension cord through the window is not an electrical plan. A shop that's wired right starts with a properly sized feeder from the main panel, a sub-panel in the building, and circuits planned around what you'll actually run out there.
The 240V loads are where planning pays off. A welder, an air compressor, and a table saw each want their own circuit, sized to the nameplate — and a shop that runs two of them at once needs a feeder and sub-panel sized for that reality, not the minimum. We run the load numbers with you up front, install the feeder underground or overhead, and wire lighting, receptacles, ventilation, and exterior security lighting so the building works like a shop instead of a shed with a power strip.
If your main panel can't spare the capacity for a feeder, we'll tell you before anything gets trenched — sometimes the answer is a panel upgrade, and on larger properties it's a second service from the utility. Either way you get one written price for the whole path, and a shop that passes inspection.
Signs it's time
- A new shop, barn, or outbuilding with no power yet
- Extension cords running from the house to the shop
- A welder or compressor with nowhere to plug in
- One sad light bulb in a building you work in daily
- Flickering in the house when shop equipment starts
- A building project where power should be planned, not retrofitted
Every wire,
every device.
We run a proper feed from your main panel, install a sub-panel in the structure, and wire it for exactly what you need — lights, outlets, 240V for welders or compressors, and whatever else the job calls for.

Questions we
hear a lot.
Straight answers about shop & shed wiring electrician in longview tx — and if yours isn't here, call and ask. A real person picks up.
What size sub-panel does my shop need?
It depends entirely on the loads. Lights and outlets alone can live on a small panel; add a welder, compressor, or future EV charger and the math changes fast. We run a load calculation with you during the site visit — it's far cheaper to size the feeder right the first time than to re-trench later.
Underground or overhead feed to the building?
Underground is what we recommend when the site allows it: nothing in the weather, nothing for a tree limb to find, nothing to look at. Overhead can make sense for long runs or rocky ground. We'll price the better option for your property — and explain why.
Can you wire a metal building or pole barn?
Yes — metal buildings are half of what we wire out here. They have their own requirements for grounding, bonding the structure, and protecting wiring runs, and we handle all of it to code.
Do I need a permit to wire a shop or shed?
Inside city limits, almost always; in unincorporated county areas, the utility still has requirements before they'll serve new load, and your insurer will care either way. We pull whatever the job requires as part of the price — unpermitted shop wiring is a problem we get hired to fix, not one we create.
Can you add security cameras and exterior lighting while you're out there?
That's the smart time to do it — the trench is open and the sub-panel is going in. We wire exterior and security lighting and install camera systems with hardwired power, so the whole building gets finished in one mobilization.

3 weeks agoI can’t say enough good things about Mark with Chosen 1 Electric. I called him with an immediate need, and he was at my location within 15 minutes. This wasn’t a typical electrical job, and there were several moving parts that had to be coordinated, but Mark stayed the entire time and helped troubleshoot while we worked to get everything in place. What impressed me most was his willingness to jump in and help with things that weren’t even part of his job. He was incredibly patient, professional, and kind throughout the process. When everything was finally ready for him to do his portion of the work, he had it completed in less than five minutes. It’s rare to find someone who is not only knowledgeable and efficient but also genuinely cares about helping their customers. I will absolutely use Mark and Chosen 1 Electric again in the future, and I will gladly refer any customers, friends, or family who need electrical work done. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
