Our Story

Built by a Father and Son, Powered by Purpose

BBS Electric didn't start with a business plan. It started with a goal: do meaningful work, stay connected to the community, and build something lasting. Brad spent years in maintenance and industrial roles before realizing his real passion was hands-on residential work.

Today, that spark has become a small but focused electrical company that takes on the jobs others overlook. We're proud to serve Quincy and the surrounding communities with the care every home deserves.
