Your trusted family-owned electrical contractor, serving Dayton, OH and surrounding communities since 2013.

YOUR NEIGHBORS IN ELECTRICAL WORK

Bates Electric was founded in 2013 with a simple mission: provide honest, expert electrical services to our community. We're not a faceless corporation — we're a family-owned company, owner-operated by a licensed electrician, and we treat every home like our own.

Backed by more than 20 years of combined hands-on experience, we've become the go-to electrician for many Dayton neighbors. We're known for first-class customer service, transparent pricing, and work that's always done right.
