About us

Ray Brown started in 1929 as a maintenance electrician at the Bassick & Bullard Company in Bridgeport, specializing in heavy equipment manufacturing. By the start of World War II, Ray was the only E-1 Master Electrician at the company - the highest technical designation possible. After the war, Ray started his own company, specializing in machine maintenance for all the major tool shops in the region. He grew to 10 employees, and proudly served Fairfield University for over 35 years. In the early 1970s, Ray's son Rich took over the family business, and continued in his father's shoes, embracing the family motto: "Dedication to total quality; if you're not going to do it right, don't do it all. Remember, people want good service!" Today, Ray Brown Electric is owned and operated by Chris Brown, Ray's grandson, who has over 20 years experience himself. His technicians are committed to state-of-the-art technical applications and excellent customer service.

Brian came out and reviewed my project and gave me a reasonable quote. I had 2 bath fans installed a hall light installed and the basement lights connected to one switch. Brian and his tech were very professional and clean. Most of all I was treated with respect. Every other electrical service that I called for a quote talked down to me and I was treated as if I had no knowledge of what I was asking them to do. Not with Ray Brown Electric! Great service and professionalism. Excellent service.

Chris Brown came out and installed two programmable thermostats at my house. I was not able to install these thermostats myself due to the wiring not being standard and the terrible tech support at Honeywell (Thermostat Company). Chris was able to figure it out and did a nice job on the installation. The price was right and service was excellent. I would use Chris again as well as recommend him to others.

They responded quickly to my request for a minor upgrade, quoted a price in advance and completed the work within 24hours. On the job site, Chris Brown was professional and courteous. I would recommend them unconditionally.

Called within 5 minutes of creating the job. Very courteous. Provider had to reschedule because of an emergency and didn't notify me ahead of time but was very accommodating and did the job as soon as possible. Job done efficiently and quickly.

Guy responded quickly, booked a time to come by (on a Saturday) and made the time as booked. Charge was fair. I can't easily evaluate the "quality" of the work done as i am not an electrician myself. The system requires a rating so I give a 5 as the offending problem has been corrected

We hired Ray to add a panel for our external generator. We were very satisfied with the job that we had him come back to install recessed lighting in our kitchen, replace the water damaged House Wiring Panel, and will have him back to install recessed lights in the family room.
