About
With 36+ years of commercial electrical contracting experience and more than 5,000 completed projects, Blackhawk Electric & Generator Sales Inc. brings serious depth to facility and property managers across the Davenport, IA and Quad Cities metro area, serving clients throughout both Illinois and Iowa. The company operates as a full-service commercial electrical contractor, covering everything from ground-up new construction wiring and panelboard upgrades to parking lot LED conversions, energy management systems, life safety systems, and commercial generator sales, service, and repair. For facility managers overseeing office buildings, retail centers, industrial facilities, warehouses, or multifamily properties, Blackhawk Electric offers the operational breadth to handle complex power distribution needs, interior and exterior lighting system overhauls, dedicated circuit work, EV charging station installation, and underground wiring location and repair. Their bucket truck and lift equipment capabilities make them a strong candidate for site lighting, parking lot maintenance, and sign maintenance contracts — services that require specialized equipment and recurring scheduling. The team is well-versed in local NEC code compliance, permitting, and utility coordination across both Iowa and Illinois jurisdictions, reducing administrative friction for multi-site portfolio managers. AutoCAD documentation services for commercial projects support as-built recordkeeping and future maintenance planning. Blackhawk Electric also provides 24-hour emergency electrical response and storm damage repair, which is a critical consideration for facility managers who need a dependable contractor when unplanned outages or weather events impact operations. Their familiarity with both rural and urban commercial districts across the Illinois-Iowa region positions them as a practical choice for property managers with geographically dispersed assets in the greater Quad Cities corridor.
