Root Electric: The Electricians in Alexandria VA Homeowners Trust

Alexandria is an interesting and challenging place to work, and it has been our pleasure to work with some wonderful clients there, many of whom have been serving our nation in wide variety of ways. We are honored to be the electrician Alexandria VA residents call on when they need help. One of the reasons a lot of our clients there have challenges with their homes is the fact that the average home age there is about 64 years.

64 years ago, it was 1949—just a few years away from World War II. Radios were common and most people in the area had telephones by then. TV was just starting to be more widespread, as were a few modern appliances like refrigerators. Compare that with today’s technology-intensive family lifestyles and you can imagine why we are often being called on to provide electrical services in Alexandria.

Root Electric has built its entire reputation on making safety and customer service our top priorities. We never rest until each family we work with is not only satisfied, but beyond satisfied.

But kudos aside, what we really care about is doing our best each time for each customer. One of our Arlington customers recently left the following review:


Customer Testimonial

Root Electric was fantastic. We got hit by lightning, and the electrician checked the breaker panel. I think it blew something in the Jacuzzi. He fixed that. He also checked a few outlets to make sure there wasn’t a short. The electrician was hardworking and knowledgeable. He cleaned up after himself, and the customer service was very good. I would grade Root Electric as an A+.

During my tenure at Root Electric, I lead the transition of Root Electric from a primarily sub-contracting based business model to a prime-contracting based business model. Accomplishments have been made by developing a team based approach to researching and implementing a service-specific client management system.

My goals for the next five years are to fine tune Root Electric's brand strategy and to diversify its scope of services, while remaining true to the discipline of electrical work.
