Our Story
It started with a dream.
After over 20 years working in the electrical business in Santa Barbara, Jeff Askew wanted more. He wanted to build a business with, and for, his family. More than just a company, a legacy. So in 2016, Jeff and his eldest son, Connor, started C.R. Electric Co. using his son's two first initials as inspiration.
Jeff also desired to build a business where employees came together to work through life’s difficulties, not just to work - where the company is like family. With a firm belief that happy employees make happy clients and that working at the company is more than just a job, he set out to build longevity in his workforce. C.R. Electric is building careers, not hiring workers.
