Our crew is excited about the completion of the “first set of switches” at one of our new projects in the Des Moines area. Described by Foreman Dan Rodgers as “earning their money the last few days,” the crew wanted to chronicle their accomplishment. The work that goes into these projects is a true testament to the dedication and skill of our employees. So, here’s a shout out to all of our amazing electricians doing what they do! #EMCOR #ElectricalContractor #Electrical #EmployeeAppreciation

Our team recently installed this impressive circular light fixture in a customer’s new boardroom. The picture does not do justice to the work our team performed to help ensure the fixture was installed as the customer intended. It's not mounted on the ceiling but hung by cables, creating a stunning effect as if it's floating above the room. We’re always impressed by the work of our teams and electricians. We’ve said it before, but it’s worth saying again—electrical work is an art form! #EMCOR #ElectricalContractor #Lighting #Electrical

One of our service vans was sighted at another iconic Des Moines location: Saylorville Lake! You never know where you'll find one of our skilled electricians out and about, but it's always great to know the Baker Electric team is out there, tackling projects across the metro. #EMCOR #Electrician #ServiceVan #DesMoines

We want to give a shoutout to one of our Journeyman Technologies Electricians, Matt Rickers. Matt is a key part of our technologies division, bringing professionalism and expertise that has helped him earn the trust of our clients. Matt recently received a few glowing comments from clients: -“I’d like to use Matt for any type of layer 1 cabling fixes. He's really fantastic, to say the least!” -“I am very impressed with his efficiency and professionalism despite the many obstacles he encountered.” Not only is Matt great with our customers, he’s amazing with our next generation workforce. A true leader, Matt is always available to offer mentorship and guidance to our newer team members. Kudos Matt!

Our Annual Office Chili Cook-off was a success! There were eight uniquely different chilis entered into the contest, so the “judges” had quite the task in determining their favorite. Jerome Miller, Technologies Service Manager, took home the trophy, and Brenda Pennington, Service Dispatch, came in 2nd. We'd also like to shout out Jodi Vander Wal and Rachel Ankrum, along with Brenda, for their work coordinating such a fun event for everyone. #EMCOR #TeamBuilding #Culture #Chili #CookOff

It is a true testament to how committed they are to their work and to our organization. Thanks for a great year and here’s to 2026! #EMCOR #Team #Celebration #HappyNewYear #Commitment

Thanks to all those who dropped off a donation to our Toys for Tots drive with IBEW Local 347! It was so much fun seeing all the generosity and being able to enjoy a coffee from Travelin’ Tom’s Coffee Truck. However, for our employee Grant Hickey, the best part of the drive was being able to ride-along in the “Big Red” Van to deliver the toys to the union hall. We take pride in knowing our team – Baker Electric and Local 347 – is making a difference in our community this holiday season. #EMCOR #GiveBack #ToyDrive #ToysForTots #Communities #HappyHolidays
