Founded in 1993, KBI Electrical Services has always taken pride in the workmanship, dedication, and attention to detail necessary to satisfy our long time customers, and attract new business as well.
KBI is very attuned to the fast pace of today's project demands, while maintaining an excellent safety record and staff of experienced tradesmen. Our management team is second to none when it comes to customer satisfaction and on time completion of projects.
KBI strives to be a critical team member with every customer we contract through, whether it is a General Contractor or a direct owner/contractor relationship. KBI believes that successful projects are the culmination of open dialog between all parties. Projects regardless of size are never taken for granted at KBI, because the person that knows the importance of each job is the customer.
KBI prides itself as both an electrical and a voice/data contractor, thus providing an alternative to having to divide these very similar trades between more than one contractor. KBI can provide "one-stop" shopping as a cost effective solution. KBI has 2 Bicsi certified voice/data designers (RCDD) on staff.
KBI insists on field personnel that have both the company and the customers best interest in mind at all times. Our personnel are trained and required to complete continuing education to insure their knowledge is current and qualified.
