Incorporated in 2009, Tracy ""Trace"" Roberts, the president and electrician of Electric Empire Inc., has been in the electrical field since 1997. Having received union training, he launched his career in residential electrical work, specializing in tract homes and remodels. Rapidly moving up from apprentice to job foreman in residential work, he soon directed his efforts toward the advanced commercial sector of the union. As a result, he undertook and passed the ""Inside Wireman Challenge Test,"" a standardized exam the union uses to gauge proficiency. He then began working on commercial projects, including the TI Casino Resort Hotel in Las Vegas, the Meritage Hotel in Napa, and Bardessono in Yountville, among others. As the economic downturn began, Trace took the initiative to further his education by attending Heald College business school and Contractor's State License School to earn his own license and establish his business.

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.

We had a situation where the electricity was out in half the house. My house is older (1977) and I was really worried that it was going to turn out to be something major. I called Trace, and he was very honest and up front about their pricing. He assured me that 98% of the time the problem could be fixed for the troubleshooting fee. He also said if it was something major he would provide a written estimate that I could shop around. His crew showed up right when promised, chased the problem down, and had it fixed within the promised time frame. Would definitely recommend this service.

Trace was worth the wait! I had lot's of lights, fans and switches that needed updating. Everything he did came out beautiful. Very professional. He arrived on time - 6:30am. Perfect for my work schedule. His pricing is reasonable. Such a nice guy as well!

Trace was great at scheduling a time that worked for us even though it is a holiday weekend. Mike is the electrician who did the work and was great. He arrived on time, fixed our problem and patiently answered all our questions. This is our second experience with Trace and Mike and we will definitely call them the next time we need electrical service. We definitely recommend them to anyone looking for electrical help.

I really loved working with Trace and the crew. They did exactly what I needed when I bought my older home. From installing a ceiling fan where none existed to putting in an outlet in the garage. They even cleaned up after themselves when the job was done. Highly recommended!

We were working on a project that required a wallpaper installer and an electrician. You wouldn't believe what a pain in the butt it is to contact these guys and get estimates for the work (literally it was a CLOSET remodel so a very SMALL area). Trace provided an itemized quote via email and was quick and easy to schedule and work with. I thought installing a double outlet, can light, and switch for $375 was a bit steep but when I look back on it, the professionalism, quality of work, and easiness to work with Trace made the money worth it. In stark contrast to Trace, I was unable to get a fair quote from any wallpaper installers I contacted and we ended up doing the work ourselves. Lesson learned - go with the pros.

In my line of work I deal with a great many contractors and Trace is one of the good ones. He is professional, respectful of your time and offers reasonable bids. I will continue to recommend him to clients.
