Our Journey
Founded in 1994 in Evansville, Indiana, Bright Electric started with a simple mission: to deliver reliable and high-quality electrical services to the local community. Our beginnings were humble, focusing on small service calls that allowed us to establish a foundation of trust and expertise within Evansville and surrounding areas.
As our reputation for great workmanship and customer-centric service grew, so did our scope of projects. Bright Electric expanded its offerings from simple service calls to handling complex electrical installations for high-demand environments like restaurants, where precision and reliability are crucial. This growth allowed us to enhance our skills and broaden our impact across the community, solidifying our role as a trusted Evansville electrician.
