My story below:
After serving in the military and spending four years in college, I realized I wasn’t fulfilled sitting behind a desk. I wanted to understand how things truly work—how power flows, how systems are built, and how electricity brings everything to life.
So I went back to school—this time with purpose.
Ten years later, with a deep understanding of both commercial and residential construction, I’ve developed a mastery of the electrical trade. That knowledge became the foundation for something greater—serving my community with skill, precision, and pride.
I don’t just provide electrical services—I deliver dependable solutions that power homes, businesses, and peace of mind.
I believe in doing the job right the first time, showing up when it matters, and building lasting relationships through trust and consistency.

The quality of the electrical work was excellent! He safely fixed two broken switches in my half bath and perfectly installed a new heavy-duty momentary switch for my garbage disposal. Everything functions great and the work itself is top-tier. Highly recommend.

I had a great experience with Marikal. He took the time to clearly explain the issue and walked me step-by-step through his troubleshooting process, which I really appreciated. His knowledge and expertise were evident, and he was very responsive throughout the entire process.
It’s not often you find someone who is both skilled and willing to educate you along the way. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for reliable and professional electrical work.

I had an excellent experience with Marikal Electric! From the beginning, he was responsive, punctual, professional, and transparent about pricing. He replaced our broken ceiling fan efficiently and went above and beyond when we encountered an unexpected manufacturer issue with the new fan, taking the time to troubleshoot and make sure everything was working properly.
His professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail made the entire experience seamless. I highly recommend Marikal Electric for any electrical needs and look forward to working with him again on several upcoming projects!
