CJ Nielsen of CNC Electric Co. joins us to share what it's really like running an electrical sub-contracting business from the inside. We get into scaling, systems, crew structure, and how he manages everything from small projects to ultra-high-end builds — each with their own tech stacks, client expectations, and GC dynamics. CJ breaks down what keeps his work consistently sharp no matter the job size.Then we go deep — lighting controls, solar, all-electric (fossil-free) homes, load-shedding panels, and the latest in battery tech. This one's packed. Hope you walk away with as many takeaways as I did.Learn more about Ep. 41 Guest:@CNC_Electric@thebuildshow contributor @finehomebuilding brand ambassadorProject per year: 8-15 projects per yearYearly Revenue: $1.5 millionEmployees: 5-6 (including Dave)Listen • Subscribe • Watch• REVIEW@apple@spotify@youtubeSponsors:www.durationmillwork.com @durationmouldingandmillwork www.heavydutypocketdoorframes.com@hdpocketdoorswww.shubee.com@shubeeshoecoversShow Merch:upstatemerch.com@upstatemerchLocal Sponsor:www.hiresmooth.com for all your spray foam needs!@HireSmooth
