Our Story
About Our Electrical Company in Atlanta
He let me pick.
Plenty of my friends’ parents pressured them into becoming this or doing that, but in my house that never happened.
I always knew I wasn’t cut out for office work, so I focused on the trades. Electricity always fascinated me. How it worked, how it moved, and how it’s always there when you need it, like magic.
If you took the cover off a light switch or outlet, you’d see a couple of wires, but that’s not the whole story. Behind the walls and out of sight, a maze of wires works around the clock to bring power everywhere.
I’m just as fascinated by electricity today as I was when I started as a journeyman 7 years ago. After years of saving my pennies and becoming a Master Electrician, it was time to go out on my own.
I took my life savings, bought a van, and never looked back. Our playbook is simple: we do great work for a fair price and, above all, keep our word.
Maybe that’s why we’ve been growing every year.
Solving problems and helping people never gets old. No matter how big or small the job is, we show up, get right to work, and answer questions in plain English.
Sometimes we get called out to fix problems left by other electricians. We’re always grateful for the work, but those jobs are reminders that not everyone cares about their customers.
Instead of fancy marketing and ridiculous coupons, we’re focused on the only thing that matters: doing great work. When you ask the internet to recommend an electrician, you’ll get a long list that never mentions who cares and who doesn’t.
If the idea of having an electrician that makes problems disappear and shoots you straight sounds good, then maybe it’s time to see why our customers don’t hesitate to share our number.
Sincerely,
Did you know?
America’s power grid began on a few blocks of lower Manhattan. Edison’s Pearl Street Station switched on September 4, 1882, lighting 400 lamps for 82 customers. The wires feeding your home today grew out of that small start, and that whole network’s younger than 150 years.
Questions & Answers
Electrical Company in Atlanta FAQs
How Cam got into the trade, and how we treat your home when we’re in it.
Camden Drouault owns it, and most customers call him Cam. He’s been in the electrical trade since 2019 and opened Cam’s Electric in 2023. The company is licensed and insured and based in Atlanta.
Cam’s Electric has been in business since 2023. Cam has been doing electrical work longer than that. He started as an apprentice in 2019.
Yes. Cam’s Electric is licensed and insured. That matters to you because a licensed contractor can pull the permits your job needs, and permitted work gets inspected.
His dad, a home remodeler, told him to get into a trade right out of high school. Cam grew up working beside him on roofing and siding jobs, and at a trade show he met plumbers, electricians and HVAC techs. He picked electrical because, in his words, it was “the coolest of the trades.”
Cam finished his apprenticeship, then worked as a journeyman electrician. He saved his money during those years, bought a work van and formed the LLC. Cam’s Electric opened in Atlanta in 2023.
An apprentice learns the trade on the job under a more experienced electrician. A journeyman has finished that training and does the work without someone checking every step. Cam went through both before he started Cam’s Electric.
It matters because finding the real cause keeps you from paying for parts you didn’t need. An electrician who’s good at troubleshooting doesn’t swap parts until the problem goes away. He finds the loose connection three outlets down from the one that quit. Ask Cam what he does best and he’ll say troubleshooting.
You should get straight answers before any work starts and a clean house when it’s done. One customer wrote that Cam “documented all of his work with pictures for us.” We clean up before we leave, and Atlanta homeowners get a free estimate and a satisfaction guarantee.
Yes, and it’s work Cam knows well, since he grew up on job sites with his dad. One contractor wrote that when he needed help on the jobsite, Cam “was a phone call away.” On a remodel, we wire after framing and before drywall, so the inspection can happen while the walls are open.
It means that if something goes wrong during the job, the electrician’s insurance covers the damage and you don’t. It’s fair to ask for proof before work starts. Cam’s Electric is insured and licensed in Georgia.
