Project Overview
Texas Electric and Light is performing the complete commercial electrical buildout for Gil's Orthodontics' Dripping Springs location. Medical and dental office electrical is among the most demanding and detail-oriented commercial work we do — treatment rooms, imaging equipment, dental chairs, and sterilization systems all have precise electrical requirements that cannot be compromised.
This is a full tenant improvement from shell space to a fully operational orthodontic practice. We are coordinating with the GC, the dental equipment vendor, and the imaging equipment supplier to ensure every circuit meets the exact specifications required for medical-grade reliability.
Dripping Springs is our home base, and we are proud to support the growth of local medical practices that serve this community. Gil's Orthodontics chose Texas Electric and Light for this project, and we are delivering the same standard of work we bring to every project — fully permitted, inspected, and built to last.

Project Considerations
Medical-Grade Electrical Standards
Medical and dental offices require isolated ground circuits, proper bonding, and specific receptacle configurations that go beyond standard commercial requirements. Every treatment room circuit is designed and installed to medical-grade specifications.
Imaging Equipment Coordination
Orthodontic imaging equipment — panoramic X-ray machines, cephalometric systems — have exacting electrical requirements. We coordinate directly with the imaging vendor to ensure circuits meet voltage tolerance, amperage, and grounding specifications that protect both the equipment and the patients.
Local Project, Home Base Advantage
Dripping Springs is our home territory, which means we know the local permit office, the inspection process, and the utility coordination required. This project benefits from that local knowledge throughout every phase.
