Gary Houston Electric has been proud to be Arkansas’ leading residential and commercial electrical contractor for over four decades, and we appreciate it each time our satisfied customers leave us a five-star review or vote for us in local reader’s polls. Reputations take a lifetime to earn and a single unhappy customer to lose, which is why we stand behind every service call with a 100% satisfaction guarantee!

Whether you’re a homeowner interested in stretching your home improvement dollar further or a business owner planning for expansion, we’re here to help you keep your project on time and within budget. We’re also ready to show you just how affordable it is to invest in a KOHLER emergency generator and enjoy year-round peace of mind! Here are just a few of the reasons GHEC customers keep coming back:

24-hour emergency service-Our phone is answered around the clock, and we’re always here to help when disaster strikes. We can help you quickly resolve electrical safety issues if you encounter weather-related damage at your home or place of business, but you should always call 911 in the event of any immediate danger.

In-home consultations-Nothing is more important than your family, and we’re always happy to perform an in-home walkthrough to help you identify potential safety issues. Your home wiring should be inspected at least every 25 years, and if your home was built before 1969, you might still have some obsolete two-prong outlets that need to be replaced. We can also show you how affordable it is to upgrade your home lighting, and we can usually also find ways to help you lower your energy bills!

Fair and transparent pricing-We base all of our pricing on standard labor schedules and will ensure that you understand every part of your estimate before we get to work. We also encourage you to get multiple estimates before scheduling any major renovations or repairs and are always happy to review a competitor’s estimate. Some smaller, trustworthy companies have lower overhead and might be able to offer slightly lower prices than their competitors, but you should always proceed with caution if you receive an estimate that’s substantially lower than the others!

If you have any questions or would like to schedule service, contact us online or at 501-375-8330.
