ABOUT US
It's been three decades and a lot of growth since our humble beginnings with a single employee, but we remain true to the values that we're founded on. We're still a local, family-owned company committed to our community, our employees and our partners, determined to exceed expectations in every relationship and on every job. It's not just about service. It's about serving.
OUR STORY
Elite Electric opened its doors in 1993 as a residential and remodel electrical contractor with David Wells as the sole employee. Over the years we have continued to grow and prosper with God’s guiding hand and have done projects from custom homes, apartment complexes, hotels and more.
Sadly, David was taken to his heavenly home on June 16, 2013. It is with him in our hearts that we continue to go forward, always living and working with the strong drive for excellence that is planted within each of our team members.
The core values of Elite Electric are integrity, honesty, kindness, professionalism and truly caring for our contractors as well as our coworkers. We have been blessed to work with so many wonderful people and continue to strive to build and strengthen our relationships with a dedication for the highest quality of workmanship.
Elite Electric promises to model the reference of Luke 12:48: “For everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded, and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.”
This verse molds who we are as a company. We have been blessed to be surrounded by loyalty from our customers, employees, and friends. We continually strive to be better than we were yesterday, not only as individuals in our trade but as servants in our community.
