Originally founded in 1973 as Houston-Stafford Electric, we quickly become one of the nation's largest and most respected electrical contracting firms, performing work nationwide for many of America's leading builders and developers. Our quality of work, excellent service and strong commitment to customer satisfaction is evidenced by our long term growth and large number of repeat customers. With multiple divisions operating throughout the United States, we provide a wide variety of services, specializing in residential wiring.

In January 1998, after 25 successful years in business, Houston-Stafford Electric, along with 5 other leading residential providers, was acquired by Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. and named IES Residential, Inc. For more information on IES, you can visit their website at www.ies-corporate.com.

Since joining IES, IES Residential, Inc. has expanded service offerings well beyond our specialty of single family and multifamily residential electrical contracting. We offer a full range of services including voice, data and video design and installation, security systems installation and monitoring, solar power installation services, and much more.

Our ranking as one of the nation's largest specialty contractors is due to the unwavering commitment to safety built directly into our organizational structure. Our Vice President of Safety is accountable directly to the CEO, and every branch has dedicated safety personnel. All IES employees are empowered to take action or even stop work when safety is a concern. Our safety goals are simple: no injuries and no time lost due to accidents. From the careful screening and on-boarding of employees, to institutionalized and continuous training, to rigorous ongoing safety programs and safety updates on every project, safety is always the top priority at IES.

We strive to measure every aspect of our safety program. Our Safety Manual includes New Employee Orientation, Standard Expectations, Communications and Reporting, Incident Reports and Energized Electrical Training. A regular safety summary report, including our performance on Recordable Incident Rate, Lost time Incident Rate, Claims Cost and cost per work hour, is distributed across the company. We also have an internal rating system to ensure continuous improvement throughout the organization.
