“We are a small company that’s thinks big!” says Elsmer Rankin, the owner and hands-on manager of Quality Electric since founding it in 1998. When he says that he means that he sees the big picture with the general contractor AND the client, is on top of new technology and knows his building code cold. From Phoenix ’s perspective, it is rare to find a small residential electrical contractor with the sophistication, scheduling and communication skills and just plain great demeanor that Elsmer has.
“Because of our approach to the schedule, which is the tightest in the market, Rankin’s team has had to work shoulder to shoulder with the AC, plumbing, and sheetrock subs right from the get-go. His guys are team players and all of them contribute to a clean, safe and coordinated worksite” said Ian Haughton , the Phoenix Showhome Project Coordinator.

Getting Quality Electric involved early in the design stage, working with the client, Icon and Jeffery Woods from MJW Services has been a real benefit, as he understands the rationale behind many of the decisions and also is keenly aware of the client’s requirements. With the homeowner making many of his own decorative selections the team from Quality has shown great flexibility in adjusting some of the small post-design changes required in the field without any of the “change-orders” that plague other residential projects. “Hey, everyone is working together here – there will always be adjustments to make, and with the planning that went into this, they are really no big deal” Elmer added.
