About United Illumination

For more than 25 years, United Illumination LLC has delivered electrical work that’s clean, code-tight, and built to last. We handle everything from custom residential wiring to large-scale commercial builds, with the same priorities every time: safety, reliability, and efficiency.

What we do

  • Residential: New builds, custom homes, additions, service upgrades, lighting design, docks, and shoreline power around the Lake Norman/greater Charlotte region.

  • Commercial: Tenant upfits, ground-up projects, lighting systems, panel/distribution, and scheduled maintenance.

  • Smart controls: Integration and programming for Lutron and Control4 lighting and shade systems.

  • Backup power: Professional generator installation and transfer solutions to keep the essentials running when the grid doesn’t.

How we work

  • Plan first. We coordinate early with GCs, builders, and inspectors so rough-in and trim move fast and clean.

  • Built for schedule. We’re busy (by design), so new projects are scheduled in advance—that’s how we protect timelines.

  • Transparent pricing. Straightforward proposals, with builder-friendly volume programs for spec and custom home partners.

  • No shortcuts. Materials specced for the application, terminations done right, labels where they should be, panels that make inspectors smile.

Why clients choose us

  • Safety first. NEC compliance isn’t a goal; it’s the baseline.

  • Consistency. Same quality whether it’s a service call or a multi-story build.

  • Communication. Clear timelines, clean change orders, no disappearing acts.

Whether it’s your home, your business, or your peace of mind, United Illumination keeps the lights on—and keeps the work professional.
