About us

For over 30 years, Root Electric Services has been serving the Northern Virginia area as a residential and commercial service electrician. The company is now in its second generation, being founded by Bill and Janice Root in 1986, and now growing under the direction of their son, Bill. Root employs a small number of professional, highly productive, and friendly electricians. Root Electric sets itself apart from competitive companies by providing comprehensive, up-front pricing. That means Root Electric provides bids that include all of the components needed for each specific installation. In contrast, some contractors omit certain critical parts from the bid to win the job, then add them back in as a change order after the contract is signed and work has begun. Our customers appreciate that we tell then what they are buying, then deliver what we promised at the price that we quoted.

Exemplary electrical work and customer service. This is the second time I have used Root Electric and they will continue to be my "go to" electrical contractor. The on-line estimate quote process works very well - there were no surprises. Bill Sr. gave me a 10:00 - 12:00 service window; he called at 10:00 to say he would arrive in 30 - 45 minutes. Bill wore a protective mask at all times, was very respectful and aware of social distancing. The two jobs were completed quickly. All in all, a real pleasure to work with. The only caution I would give for new customers: you may have to wait a bit to get your work scheduled but that is clearly a good thing and clearly attests to Root Electric's top notch, quality work - WELL WORTH WAITING FOR!

We brought in Root to do some major work and they made it look easy. The technicians were friendly and professional and arrived on time... early in fact. We then hired them for some more minor work and they treated it with no less sense of importance than our previous major work. They price they quoted was the price I paid and the kept me informed of what they were doing and my options during the whole process. Super job... as long as we are using electricity, we will use Root. Thanks!
