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.
