Here in Central Arkansas, you have many commercial electrical contractors to choose from, and you may not quite know where to start. When you’re comparing companies, how do you make an informed decision?

At Gary Houston Electric Company, we know that you have many choices when it comes to commercial electricians, and we want you to give us a chance to earn your business! We’ve enjoyed a lot of repeat and referral business since opening our doors in 1978, and we’re ready to make you our next satisfied customer. Here are a few of the reasons why our clients keep coming back:

  1. Experience
    Every electrician has to meet the same licensure standards, and there are many new, highly qualified contractors entering the business that do great work at fair prices. But there’s simply no substitute for experience. We’ve been providing high quality commercial electrical services to clients in central Arkansas for almost 40 years, and we’ve seen just about every unique electrical problem that exists!
  2. Value
    Soliciting multiple bids is standard operating procedure for most commercial electrical jobs, and most contractors base their pricing on standard labor costs and the cost of materials. Smaller companies with less overhead may be able to do certain jobs at a slightly lower cost, but you should always be concerned with an estimate that comes in substantially lower than the others. What corners are they cutting to offer you that low bid? We can’t always guarantee that our estimate will be the lowest, but we will explain it to you in detail, and are experienced working with tight budgets.And don’t forget, our work is guaranteed.
  3. 100% Customer satisfaction
    We know that reputations take a lifetime to earn, and one upset client to lose. Our entire team is committed to your complete satisfaction on every job, and empowered to do whatever it takes to exceed your expectations!

At GHEC, the customer always comes first, and we’re ready to get to work on your next commercial electrical project! Schedule a free, no-obligation estimate now, or give us a call at (501) 375-8330 if you have any questions!
