B. Henry’s Quality Electric Inc. provides a full range of electrical contracting services for residential, commercial, and industrial clients in Sonoma and Marin Counties. The company’s primary focus is performing electrical wiring on residential remodeling and new construction projects, but it also has the in-house capabilities to handle networking and data communications, conduit and surface mount work, LED lighting, solar system installations, and more.
Owner Bill Henry, who has 40-plus years of experience as an electrician, credits much of B. Henry’s Quality Electric’s success to its customer-oriented approach to electrical work. “We personalize each application to what the client wants,” he says. “Instead of just telling them what they need, we customize their project as much as possible.”
B. Henry’s Quality Electric is known for its comprehensive approach to quality control, which includes providing every job with the hands-on expertise of Mr. Henry himself. “I’m involved with every project, whether it’s working directly onsite or overseeing it from start to finish,” he affirms. “Nothing gets to the client before I approve it, even if it’s something as small as a little bit of routing.” B. Henry’s Quality Electric won “Best Electrician” in the Press Democrat’s Best of Sonoma County 2018 awards and the "Petaluma People’s Choice” award from the Argus-Courier (2019-2023).
“Our goal is simple: make sure our clients are happy and satisfied when we leave their projects. We take the time to make sure they understand exactly what's being done, which makes them confident in our abilities and more comfortable with the entire process.”
If you need new lighting in your home or business, consider the benefits of LED technology.
Light-emitting diode (LED) lighting is an electronic light source that’s flexible, instant, uniform and environmentally-friendly. LED lights use much less energy than traditional bulbs, they don’t contain toxins such as mercury and lead, and they last years longer than traditional bulbs—all of which make them an ideal choice for homes and businesses alike.
Bill Henry, owner of B. Henry’s Quality Electric Inc. in Petaluma, says today’s consumers are choosing LED lighting more frequently than ever. “People love LED lighting because it’s so flexible—it can be used under cabinets, in a yard, and even in commercial applications like storefronts and open signs. It’s also very efficient because it doesn’t place a heavy load on your electrical panel, and it’s a great choice for bathrooms and kitchens because the lighting is more natural than fluorescent lights.”
In addition to its practical benefits, Mr. Henry says LED lighting can be a safer choice for homeowners. “If you get exposed to an LED light, you won’t get a big shock because it has a smaller power load,” he explains. “That means it doesn’t blow circuits as often as traditional lighting, even if you have a lot of things plugged in at once.”
While low-voltage LED lighting is a good choice for anyone who wants to reduce both their carbon footprint and electrical bills, Mr. Henry says he often suggests LED lighting for homes and businesses that are close to meeting their maximum power loads. “An electrical contractor can calculate your current load and determine what new lights will add. Sometimes incandescent lighting won’t work because it’ll overload the system and blow the circuits, and LED lights are great options in those cases.”
Maintaining customer satisfaction is a crucial aspect of any business, but it's even more important for electrical contractors that have earned the prestigious Diamond Certified award. For B. Henry's Quality Electric Inc., the key to achieving and maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction is simple: personalize every job to meet the specific needs of the client. "Before any project begins, we break down every option so the customer understands exactly what's needed," says owner Bill Henry. "That way, they have a say in the work from the initial stages to the final outcome."
B. Henry's Quality Electric has been providing electrical contracting services for commercial, industrial, and residential clients in Sonoma, Napa, Marin, and San Francisco Counties since 2009. The company primarily focuses on handling the electrical wiring on commercial remodeling and new construction projects, but it's also qualified to perform conduit and surface mount work, install LED lighting, set up data communications, and more.
Unlike electrical contractors that limit their services to the residential field, B. Henry's Quality Electric is known for its ability to design and install electrical systems for everything from high-tech companies and office buildings to warehouses, restaurants and showrooms. "We have the experience to solve any problems with a building's existing electrical work in order to get our clients the designs they want," says Mr. Henry. "From interior lighting design to complicated storefronts with multiple types of lighting and electrical hookups, we've done it all."
To further differentiate itself from its competition, B. Henry's Quality Electric provides every project with the hands-on expertise of Mr. Henry himself. "Being involved with each job allows me to ensure high levels of quality control, whether I'm working directly onsite or overseeing the work from start to finish," he says. "Nothing gets to our clients before I approve it, even if it's something minor like routing."
