Established in 2009, Tracy ""Trace"" Roberts, president and electrician at Electric Empire Inc., has been part of the electrical trade since 1997. Having received union training, he launched his career in residential electrical work, specializing in tract homes and remodels. Quickly advancing from apprentice to job foreman in residential projects, he later shifted his focus to the more complex commercial sector of the union. This experience culminated in him taking and passing the ""Inside Wireman Challenge Test,"" a standardized assessment the union employs to evaluate expertise. He subsequently engaged in commercial projects such as the TI Casino Resort Hotel in Las Vegas, the Meritage Hotel in Napa, and Bardessono in Yountville, to name a few. As the economy began to decline, Trace recognized the need for further education and enrolled in Heald College business school and Contractor's State License School to obtain his own license and start his business.

Great communications, quality workmanship and a price for all of this, that is well within everyone's budget. Highly recommended!!

Trace was so awesome!
He replied right away when others wouldn't even call me back.
I sent him an email telling him the issue, and instead of coming out & charging me, he gave me simple instructions to reset my breaker myself. He said if that didn't work, he was happy to come take a look. But it did!
Will absolutely use him for my electric needs in the future! What a guy.

Trace came highly recommended by a friend. He updated the electric panel, installed a ceiling fan (including junction box and wiring) and fixed non-working outlets to work in conjunction with the light switches in the bedrooms.
For the next project, Trace will be installing 4 recessed lights and updating a fifth light to match the new ones, as well as installing a 3 way switch with dimmers.
Needless to say, Trace did a fantastic job; fast, proficient and professional. He is my go-to guy for all of my electric needs.

Trace responded to our email request for an estimate on the installation of a ceiling fan with immediacy and clarity about the very reasonable cost and contractual details. He and Sean came the following day, completing the task as an organized and thoroughly professional team, explaining all steps in the process - which included the removal of a gaudy chandelier left by the previous owner in the master bedroom of our newly purchased home. Their tools and equipment even included drop cloths to protect surrounding furniture and stage the ceiling fan and light kit parts. Though one might wonder how a ceiling fan installation could surpass expectations, Trace and Sean did just that with their meticulous skill and teamwork as well as precision timeliness, from Trace's initial estimate response to arrival updates right up to their 20 minute commute for arrival AND the focused completion of the installation. Moreover, their good-natured and affable communication skills enhanced the range of their expertise while establishing our total trust and ensuring that Electric Empire is now a member of our own home improvement team for all forthcoming lighting projects. A five star THANKS for such a positive and illuminating experience!

I'm a huge advocate for supporting local businesses and Electric Empire with Trace and his partner Mike are tremendous! They were quick to respond to my email, accommodating with scheduling next day service, and were very thorough and conscientious as they conducted their inspection and repair. I will be utilizing Electric Empire again for my next project soon! Great work guys, much appreciate it!

I can recommend Electric Empire without reservation.

Like most people I have had my share of contractors who were flaky, non-communicative and hard to work with.

Trace gets an A+ for communication and commitment to meeting the customer's needs.

I had a medium sized job that was not time sensitive and a very small job that I needed done right away. Trace had a full schedule, but I was able to send pictures and specifications on a 220 volt plug change via email and he responded quickly with an estimate.

The schedule had me resigned to waiting, but he was able to fit the small job in much earlier than I expected. He was responsive and communicative though out the process.

I would say he is a man who likes what he does and who wants to do the best job possible.

Five stars.

We had some electrical troubles in our house, and couldn't get our outlets working. The outlets affected our network ince we do work from home, we knew we had to call professionals. On an early morning call, Trace agreed to come by and take a look. Both Trace and Mike showed up at my house, immediately went to troubleshooting the issue, and were able to fix our electrical problems. They were both professional and polite, and were helpful in pointing out the issues for my understanding. Huge thanks!
Highly recommend Electric Empire for any electrical.

Trace and his guys did a great job at my place installing recessed lights, ceiling fans, plugs and fixing improper wiring in the garage. They were all very nice, attentive and kept their work areas as clean as possible. They went above and beyond to get what I wanted done and didn't try to charge extra in the end. Trace was very professional and responsive from the first time I contacted him to the completion of the job. Price was very good. I am fully satisfied with his services, couldn't have asked for more.

Trace and Mike have helped complete several of my electrical needs from getting my hot tub hooked up, recessed lighting and installing 3 ceiling fans. They are very responsive, go above and beyond to make sure your needs are met and very courteous. Trace was able to explain to me my options and help me make the right decisions for each of these projects. They are prompt and professional. They made sure to leave my home & belongings in great condition. I will continue to use Electric Empire for my future electrical needs.
