Independent Auditors' Report The Administrative Committee of the Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan: We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for plan benefits of the Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2002, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2002 and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule G, part III - schedule of nonexempt transactions for the year ended December 31, 2002 and supplemental schedule H, line 4i - schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2002 are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 (1) Description of the Plan The following description of the Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for more complete information about the Plan's provisions. (a) General The Plan is a defined contribution plan established by Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. (the Company), on January 1, 1999. The Plan was established under the provisions of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), which includes a qualified deferred arrangement as described in Section 401(k) of the Code, for the benefit of eligible employees of the Company. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA). The Plan was amended and restated effective January 1, 2002. The Company, as plan administrator, established an administrative committee (the Administrative Committee). The Administrative Committee is responsible for the general administration of the Plan. The Administrative Committee is given all powers necessary to enable it to carry out its duties including, but not limited to, the power to interpret the Plan. (b) Trustee Hand Benefits & Trust, Inc. (the Trustee), is the trustee of the Plan. Trustee fees, audit fees and all other administrative costs, excluding participant loan fees, incurred during 2002 were paid either by the Plan or through unallocated forfeitures within the Plan unless the Company elected to pay such expenses on behalf of the Plan. Participant loan fees were paid by the participants requesting the loan. (c) Eligibility All employees, excluding members of a collective bargaining unit, nonresident aliens, leased employees, and employees of an affiliate of the Company that has not adopted the Plan, are eligible to participate in the Plan on the first day of any month coinciding with or immediately following the later of the date on which he or she completes 60 days of service or attains age 21. (d) Rollovers Participants may contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans. (e) Contributions Eligible employees may contribute, on a pretax basis, an amount up to 20% of their compensation, as defined. In addition, eligible employees who have attained age 50 before the close of the Plan year are eligible to make catch-up contributions subject to limitations of section 414(v) of the Code. The Company does not match the employees' catch-up contributions. Employee contributions are subject to certain limitations. 6

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 Employee contributions for the year ended December 31, 2002, include excess contributions which will be refunded to participants subsequent to year end as the contributions were determined to be in excess of maximum contributions levels for certain participants. A liability for excess contribution refunds in the amount of $257,548 and $429,555 has been reflected in the statements of net assets available for plan benefits as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company will make matching contributions based on a percentage, if any, as determined each plan year by the Company. During 2002, the Company made matching contributions equal to 25% of the first 6% of each participant's contribution. The Plan allows the Company to make a "true-up" matching contribution at its sole discretion at the end of a plan year for eligible participants in an amount which, when aggregated with the Company contributions made during the year, will produce aggregate matching contributions equal to the percentage established by the Company. The Company did not elect to make a "true-up" matching contribution for the 2002 plan year. (f) Participant Accounts Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions, the Company's matching contributions and the participant's share of earnings, losses, any appreciation or depreciation of the funds invested and administrative expenses. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's account. (g) Loans Participants may borrow from their before-tax contribution accounts a minimum of $1,000 to a maximum equal to the lesser of (a) $50,000 minus any outstanding loan balance(s) in the last 12 months or (b) 50% of their vested account balances. No more than one loan is allowed per account at any given time. Interest rates are established by the Administrative Committee. Loans must be repaid within five years for general loans and fifteen years for loans used to purchase a primary residence. Principal and interest are repaid through after-tax payroll deductions. (h) Investment Options The Plan allows for participant transactions on the first day of any given month with respect to changes in the contribution level. The Plan allows for participant transactions on a daily basis with respect to (a) the transfer of funds from one investment alternative to another and (b) changes in the investment of new contributions. Participants may cease their deferrals at the beginning of any payroll period with proper notice. The Plan provides for contributions to be invested by the Trustee among the Company's common stock, five mutual funds, and five common/collective trust funds in accordance with participant investment elections and the provisions of the trust agreement. The Trustee utilizes a short-term investment account to invest assets of the Plan pending investment into the directed funds. 7

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 (i) Company Common Stock Voting Rights Participants are entitled to exercise voting rights attributable to the shares of Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. common stock allocated to their account and are notified prior to the time that such rights are to be exercised. The Trustee is not permitted to vote any shares for which instructions have not been given by the participant. (j) Vesting Participants are 100% vested in their contributions, rollover contributions, and earnings thereon. Participants vest in their Company matching contributions, and earnings thereon, as follows: Vested Completed years of service percentage ---------------------------------------------------- Less than 3 0% 3 or more 100 (k) Forfeitures Forfeitures result from termination of employment before full vesting has occurred. Forfeitures are first used to pay the Plan's ordinary and necessary administrative expenses and then any remaining forfeitures are used to reduce the Company matching contributions. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, forfeited nonvested accounts totaled approximately $305,000 and $396,368, respectively. During 2002, approximately $191,000 of forfeitures were utilized to pay plan expenses and reduce Company matching contributions. (l) Withdrawals Once age 59-1/2 is attained, a participant may withdraw some or all of the vested amounts in his or her account. If the participant is younger than 59-1/2, he or she may withdraw some or all of the vested amounts in his or her account, excluding earnings thereon, only in the event of financial hardship. Upon retirement, termination of employment, death, or permanent disability, participants or their beneficiaries will be paid in the form of a lump sum equal to the vested value of their accounts. (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Basis of Accounting The Trustee provides statements, prepared on a cash basis of accounting, to the Company. Adjustments have been made to convert the statements to an accrual basis for reporting purposes. Withdrawals are recorded when paid. 8

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 (b) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to use estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for plan benefits and changes therein. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (c) Investment Valuation and Gains (Losses) on Investments Investments are reported at market value. Mutual funds and the Company's common stock are valued based upon quoted market prices. The common/collective trust funds are valued at fair value based upon the market value of the underlying assets. The Hand Composite Employee Benefit Trust - Short-Term Income Fund (the Short-Term Income Fund) is a fully benefit-responsive common/collective trust fund investing in short-term debt instruments, including guaranteed investment contracts. The investments of the Short-Term Income Fund are stated at amortized cost which approximates fair value. Participant loans are valued at cost, which approximates fair value. Realized gains (losses) on the sale of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of investments are shown as net depreciation in fair value of investments in the statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits. Purchase and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest is recorded as earned. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. 9

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 (3) Investments The following table presents investments that represent 5% or more of the Plan's net assets for December 31, 2002 and 2001: December 31, 2002: American Growth Fund of America $ 11,827,263 Hand Benefit and Trust Company Composite Employee Benefit Group Trust: Benefit Trust Equity Index 500 Fund 8,906,439 Short-Term Income Fund 11,191,362 SMART Aggressive Fund 4,486,883 SMART Moderate Fund 5,623,971 Fidelity Advisor Government Investment Portfolio 9,290,123 Investment Company of America 5,411,148 Janus Worldwide Fund 9,146,218 MFS Capital Opportunities Fund 6,619,115 December 31, 2001: American Growth Fund of America $ 19,059,759 Hand Benefit and Trust Company Composite Employee Benefit Group Trust: Benefit Trust Equity Index 500 Fund 12,133,183 Short-Term Income Fund 10,655,399 SMART Aggressive Fund 5,197,719 SMART Moderate Fund 6,466,815 Fidelity Advisor Government Investment Portfolio 6,830,047 Investment Company of America 6,368,231 Janus Worldwide Fund 13,813,496 MFS Capital Opportunities Fund 10,408,388 During 2002, the Plan's investments (including gains and losses on investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year) depreciated in fair value as follows: Common/collective trust funds $ (4,691,863) Mutual funds (11,902,480) Common stock (934,010) -------------- $ (17,528,353) ============== 10

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 (4) Concentration of Investments The Plan's investment in Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. common stock represents 4% of total investments as of December 31, 2002 and 2001. The Company is the largest provider of electrical contracting services in the United States and provides a broad range of services including designing, building and maintaining electrical, low voltage and utilities systems for commercial, industrial and residential customers. (5) Transfers From Other Plans During 2002, account balances of employees of various acquired companies who had participated in plans sponsored by the acquired companies were transferred to the Plan. Transfers from the acquired companies' plans totaled $1,334,650. (6) Transfers To Other Plans During 2002, account balances of employees of various divested companies who had participated in the Plan were transferred from the Plan. Transfers from the Plan totaled $7,200,114. (7) Risks and Uncertainties The Plan provides for various investments in common/collective trust funds, mutual funds, and the Company's common stock. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term. (8) Tax Status The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on October 18, 2001, in which the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. Even so, the Administrative Committee believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and that the Plan was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of December 31, 2002 and 2001. (9) Priorities Upon Termination Under the terms of the Plan, the Company has the right at any time to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants would become fully vested in the balance of their accounts. The Trustee would then commence distribution as directed by the Administrative Committee. (10) Related-Party Transactions Certain Plan investments are units of common/collective trust funds managed and distributed by Hand Benefits & Trust, Inc. Hand Benefits & Trust, Inc. is the Trustee for the Plan; therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. In addition, the Plan provides for investment in Company common 11

INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL SERVICES, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 stock and participant loans, which also qualify as party-in-interest transactions. These transactions are covered by an exemption from the "prohibited transaction" provisions of ERISA and the Code. (11) Nonexempt Transactions As reported on Schedule 1, certain Plan contributions were not remitted to the trust within the time frame specified by the Department of Labor's Regulation 29 CFR 2510.3-102, thus constituting nonexempt transactions between the Plan and the Company for the year ended December 31, 2002. The Company remitted earnings on the nonexempt transactions subsequent to year-end. (12) Subsequent Event (unaudited) Participant account balances from an acquired company's former plan totaling approximately $6,000,000 will be merged into the Plan on or after July 10, 2003. 12

                                                                    Exhibit 23.2


                 NOTICE REGARDING CONSENT OF ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP


Section  11(a)  of the  Securities  Act of 1933  provides  that if any part of a
registration  statement  at the time it  becomes  effective  contains  an untrue
statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact required to
be stated  therein or necessary to make the statements  therein not  misleading,
any person acquiring a security pursuant to such registration  statement (unless
it is  proved  that at the time of such  acquisition  such  person  knew of such
untruth or omission) may sue, among others,  every  accountant who has consented
to be  named as  having  prepared  or  certified  any  part of the  registration
statement or as having  prepared or certified  any report or valuation  which is
used in connection with the registration statement with respect to the statement
in such registration statement,  report or valuation which purports to have been
prepared or certified by the accountant.  The plan appointed KPMG LLP to replace
Arthur  Andersen LLP as the  independent  auditor of the  Integrated  Electrical
Service,  Inc. 401(k) Retirement  Savings Plan (the Plan).  Prior to the date of
this Form 11-K  (which is  incorporated  by the  reference  into the  Integrated
Electrical Service, Inc. filing on Forms S-8 File Nos. 333-67113 and 333-68274),
the Arthur Andersen LLP partners who reviewed the most recent audited  financial
statements  of the Plan as of  December  31,  2001  have  resigned  from  Arthur
Andersen LLP. As a result, after reasonable efforts, the Plan has been unable to
obtain Arthur Andersen LLP's written consent to the  incorporation  by reference
into the  Integrated  Electrical  Service,  Inc.  filing  on Forms S-8 File Nos.
333-67113 and 333-68274 of its audit report with respect to the Plan's financial
statements as of December 31, 2001. Under these  circumstances,  Rule 437a under
the  Securities  Act of 1933  permits the Plan to file this Form 11-K  without a
written consent from Arthur Andersen LLP. Accordingly,  Arthur Andersen LLP will
not be liable to you under Section 11(a) of the  Securities  Act of 1933 because
it has not consented to the  incorporation by reference of its previously issued
report into the Integrated  Electrical  Service,  Inc.  filing on Forms S-8 File
Nos.  333-67113 and 333-68274.  Integrated  Electrical  Service,  Inc. believes,
however, that other persons who are liable under Section 11(a) of the Securities
Act of 1933,  including the Company's officers and directors,  may still rely on
Arthur  Andersen  LLP's audit  reports as being made by an expert  under the due
diligence defense provision of Section 11.
