Powering Innovation: Built on Integrity. Backed by Generations of Craftsmanship.
Our company identity was forged long before our official corporate launch. Our founder, Eric, literally grew up in the electrical industry, spending his youth on active local job sites learning the nuances of the trade directly from his father, a respected master tradesman with nearly 50 years of field experience.
Right out of high school in 2004, Eric formally stepped into the family business, accumulating over 22 years of deep, hands-on field experience. Having mastered everything from high-density commercial spaces to complex industrial facilities, Eric saw a distinct gap in the local market: the region needed an agile contractor that could balance heavy industrial engineering with genuine, transparent customer care.
In 2020, Eric established Innovative Electric on a simple, powerful guiding principle: Treat every physical plant, retail development, and family home with the exact same care and reverence we would apply to our own property.
For years, Innovative Electric operated completely under the radar of traditional advertising. We didn’t need flashy billboards or high-pressure sales loops. Because our family names were deeply rooted and well-known within the Wichita construction community, our business thrived entirely on word-of-mouth referrals and an unshakeable local reputation.
When you do exceptional work, treat people fairly, and quote transparently, the community notices. Today, as we expand our fleet to serve a broader footprint of commercial developers and homeowners, that foundational commitment to reputation over marketing remains completely unchanged.
We completely reject the standard contracting playbook of dispatching unseasoned handymen to manage your vital power grids. When you partner with us, you are leveraging nearly 120 years of combined legacy experience right on your job site.
With over two decades of technical layout experience, Eric infuses precision engineering into the daily operations of every crew we deploy. He specializes in pre-construction electrical design, complex industrial motor controls, and high-capacity electrical panel upgrades. Eric works directly in the field to guarantee our installations meet the absolute highest standards.
Bringing half a century (43-50 years) of verified trade intelligence to the team, Steve represents the foundational pillar of our multi-generational expertise. His deep knowledge of historic local infrastructure makes him an invaluable asset when troubleshooting older commercial properties or executing complex whole-home rewiring projects.
While our crews are commanding active project sites, Sydney runs everything behind the scenes. As our operations manager, she coordinates project timelines, handles corporate logistics, and ensures smooth communication between general contractors and inspectors.
We are deeply rooted in South-Central Kansas. From our primary logistics hub at 219 N West St, Wichita, KS 67203, our rapid-deployment fleet services a sprawling regional footprint with absolute consistency and quality.
As modern infrastructure evolves, our team stays at the forefront of sustainable and resilient energy technology:
As an accredited Evergy Trade Ally, we help commercial property owners capture substantial energy-efficiency incentives. We specialize in turnkey lighting fixture swap-outs (under $15K) that qualify for direct Evergy lighting rebates, dramatically lowering project overhead while cutting continuous utility consumption.
From residential Level 2 garage charging bays to multi-station commercial fleet and retail charging networks, we design and install high-performance EV supply equipment backed by rigorous panel load calculations.
We engineer, deploy, and maintain commercial and residential standby generator networks with automatic transfer switching, ensuring Kansas homes and facilities stay fully operational through severe weather and grid disruptions.
As active, certified members of the Independent Electrical Contractors (IEC) and the Wichita Area Builders Association (WABA), we hold our field personnel to the most stringent technical, craftsmanship, and safety benchmarks in the nation.
We believe that world-class craftsmanship requires investing deeply in the people who carry our tools. If you are an apprentice or a licensed journeyman who wants to master complex systems in a safety-first, culture-driven environment, Innovative Electric is ready to invest in your future.
