About
Family-owned since 1951, Frischhertz Electric has built a seven-decade legacy as one of the Southeast's most trusted commercial electrical contractors — delivering the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport North Terminal project, the largest capital undertaking in New Orleans in recent history. Operating out of New Orleans, LA, Frischhertz serves facility managers, property managers, and general contractors across a broad spectrum of commercial and institutional property types, including office buildings, government facilities, hospitality venues, industrial facilities, multifamily properties, and institutional campuses. Their electrical construction division covers the full power distribution chain — from switchgear and panelboards to branch circuit systems — supported by design-build and design-assist delivery, BIM engineering, prefabrication, and value engineering to control costs and reduce field installation time. For facility managers managing ongoing operational risk, Frischhertz offers both preventive service and maintenance programs and 24/7 emergency services with disaster recovery response, a critical capability in a Gulf Coast market routinely exposed to hurricanes and severe weather events. Generator installation and service round out their resilience offerings, providing backup power continuity for mission-critical commercial buildings. Their technology division extends capabilities into structured cabling, fiber optics, WiFi/DAS, security systems, CATV, paging and intercom, and audio-visual systems — positioning Frischhertz as a single-source contractor for both power and low-voltage infrastructure. Tenant improvement work and specialty projects round out their commercial portfolio. NEC-compliant workmanship across project scales, combined with in-house project management and a deep regional track record, makes Frischhertz a strong choice for New Orleans-area facility teams seeking a contractor with the capacity to handle complex builds and the responsiveness to manage critical maintenance needs.
