Phazer Electric was born out of Tim Harnett’s passion for providing top-quality electrical services. With a small team of 25-30 dedicated professionals, the company started by serving local commercial and small residential clients. From the outset, the company's commitment to safety, reliability, and customer satisfaction set it apart in the industry.
Slow & steady growth in the 1990’s propelled Phazer’s annual revenues from less than $2 million in sales to over $12 million by the end of the decade. This gained us entry into large electrical contracting projects that ensued. Today Phazer remains consistent with annual sales of $6M.
Phazer Electric's story is one of resilience, dedication, and a passion for excellence, and it is a testament to what can be achieved through a steadfast commitment to quality in the electrical contracting industry.
