Busy Bee Electric

At Busy Bee Electric, we are very proud of our history performing electrical work in the Cincinnati Tri-state area. Our company was started with a vision to the future some 28 years ago by Mr. Bob Oehlschlaeger. Bob founded the company on sound business principles and many years of electrical experience. Bob's vision was to create a business he could be proud of and excited about in meeting the needs of our customers. Bob surrounded himself with an elite staff of electricians who were dedicated to the same ideals and principles as he was. The company prospered and developed a large customer base from which friendships have continued through the years.

Bob retired a few years ago, turning the business over to his son, Jim. Jim has continued the same ideals as his father and has taken the company to the next level utilizing his broad experience, knowledge, and high technology approach to succeeding as an electrical contractor into the next millennium. Busy Bee Electric is proud of the people who make the company what it is. The magnitude of a company's commitment to service and quality is relative to the quality and dedication of the people.
