History
In 1966, Robert J. LaFreniere, an electrical engineer, followed
his dream and opened Reddy Electric. At first the company specialized
in electric baseboard heat and insulation. By the end of the 1970s it
found itself a leader in residential wiring completing over 800 houses
annually.
In the early 1980s, “Bob” shifted his focus to
commercial construction and quickly made his mark in this market. With
prudent leadership, loyal employees and a buoyant economy, Reddy
Electric grew throughout the 1980s and early 1990s to become a large
regional player in the Ohio electrical contracting and service
market.
In 1995, Mr. LaFreniere retired and handed over
company leadership and ownership to his son Robert L. LaFreniere and
devoted employees, Jeffrey A. Eldridge and Stephen R. Stanek. Together
these three men have continued to follow the early principles of the
company and have grown the company to an annual sales volume in excess
of $20 million.
In 2018, Stephen R. Stanek retired after
38.5 years of service.
Robert L. LaFreniere and Jeffrey A. Eldridge over the past 10
years we have diversified and re-balanced of the company.We have
increased our abilities in technologies which has allowed us to be of
more service to customers and clients.The company has maintained an
average annual sales volume in excess of $20 million.
Today Reddy Electric, operating as a merit shop contractor,

good service and quality workmanship with a reputation we are proud of
in the industry.
