History

Harold Bausum & Jimmy Duckett formed Bausum & Duckett Electric LLC in June of 1960, specializing in residential electrical projects. When Jimmy left the company to venture out on his own, Harold carried on, growing the company from a small mom-and-pop business to a larger organization that also specialized in commercial work. In 1983, four additional owners came aboard, expanding the company’s geographical territories increasing services and specialties. In 2003, Tim Holt became the sole owner of Bausum & Duckett and has provided 42 years of dedicated service.

Today, the company has two offices—the original in Edgewater, MD and a branch in Delmar, DE—allowing us to serve the entire Maryland, Virginia, Washington DC, & the DelMarVa region. Today, as owners, President Mark Llewellyn, Sr. Vice Presidents Tommy Luc and John Dorsey carry on Bausum & Duckett’s commitment to exceptional service, superior workmanship and professionalism. Thanks to a highly skilled and courteous staff, the company maintains its premier reputation, continues to strive for new ways to meet customers’ needs and keeps abreast of changing technologies.
