ITEM 2.03  CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT

         On February 24, 2005, Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. (the
"Company") sold $14 million in principal amount of its Series B 6.5% Senior
Convertible Notes due 2014 (the "Notes"), pursuant to separate option exercises
by the holders of the $36 million aggregate principal amount of Notes issued by
the Company in an initial private placement on November 24, 2004. The
transaction was exempt from registration pursuant to the exemption found in
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, relating to transactions by an
issuer not constituting a public offering. The Notes were sold at 100% of their
principal amount. The press release announcing the sale of the $14 million in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current
Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein in its entirety.

         The Notes are governed by an indenture dated November 24, 2005 (the
"Indenture"). Pursuant to the Indenture, the Notes require payment of interest
semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year at an annual rate
of 6.5%, have a stated maturity of November 1, 2014, are guaranteed on a senior
unsecured basis by the Company's significant domestic subsidiaries (the
"Guarantors") and are convertible at the option of holders of the Notes into
shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $3.25 per share,
subject to adjustment, or into cash at the Company's election.

         Under the Indenture, the Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at
the option of the Company on or after November 1, 2008 so long as the last
reported trading price of the Company's common stock has exceeded 150% of the
conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days in the 30
consecutive trading days ending on the day prior to the date on which the
Company delivers notice of redemption. The Notes may be redeemed for cash at a
redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus
accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any. Upon redemption,
holders of redeemed Notes will also be entitled to a redemption premium equal to
the net present value of remaining scheduled interest payments through the date
of maturity (a "Redemption Premium"). Following a redemption notice, holders of
Notes who elect to convert their Notes prior to the date of redemption will also
receive a Redemption Premium.

         Holders of the Notes have the right, pursuant to the Indenture, to
require the Company to purchase all or any portion of the Notes upon the
delisting of the Company's common stock, certain changes in control of the
Company, the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company or the
Company's liquidation or bankruptcy (any of the foregoing, a "Fundamental
Change") or at any time on or after November 1, 2008, in each case at a purchase
price equal to 100% of the Notes to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid
interest and liquidated damages, if any. The Company may elect to pay any such
purchase price in cash, shares of Company common stock, subject to certain
limitations, or a combination thereof. Holders of Notes who elect to convert
their Notes within the period beginning fifteen days prior to and ending fifteen
days after the effective date of a Fundamental Change will receive a make-whole
premium in addition to shares or cash delivered in satisfaction of the Company's
conversion obligation.

         The Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes may declare the principal amount of the Notes, together with
accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any, to be immediately
due and payable upon the occurrence of an event of default, including the
Company's and, in certain circumstances, the Guarantors': (i) failure to pay
principal on any Note when due at maturity, or failure to pay the redemption
price when due, (ii) failure to pay interest on the Notes, (iii) failure to
comply with the covenants or warranties relating to the Notes, (iv) failure to
deliver shares of common stock when required to do so upon conversion of any
Notes, (v) failure to give proper notice of a Fundamental Change, (vi) default
with respect to other indebtedness that results in acceleration of an amount in
excess of $25 million, (vii) failure to pay final judgments in excess of $25
million or (viii) bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization. The description of
the Notes set forth in this Item 3.02 is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the terms of the Indenture itself, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1
to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed December 1, 2004.
