The Story Of Emerge Electrical: Local Legends

Getting Our Feet Wet

From a young age, Jonathan, our founder, was immersed in the home improvement business. He learned the ropes of being an electrician early on, picking up skills and knowledge as he worked alongside his friends — who were in the same trade. This early experience laid the foundation for what would become Emerge Electrical.

Making The Big Switch

Jonathan’s dad ran his own business, and seeing the perks of being your own boss really clicked for him. He realized that by having his own company, he could keep a close eye on the quality of work and hire only the best folks. So, he decided to take the plunge and start Emerge Electrical. His goal was simple: to help Southwestern Washington homeowners.

The Early Years Of Emerge Electrical

We really got things rolling during COVID, a time when people were understandably nervous about letting anyone into their homes. We quickly became the trusted source for electrical and HVAC services by strictly following all the guidelines and making homeowners feel safe and comfortable. Plus, we already had a reliable workforce — our friends.
