Finding a Reliable Electrician in Missoula Shouldn't Be This Hard.
But it is, for a lot of homeowners and businesses in Missoula. You call around. Nobody calls back. Someone quotes and disappears. A third one does the work and it fails inspection a month later. In a city with 99 licensed electrical companies, reliable is harder to find than available.
Those problems are solvable. PETES Electric has been fixing Missoula’s electrical issues since 1999, including a fair number of jobs another electrician left unfinished or did incorrectly. The free estimate starts with an honest assessment of what the job actually needs.
We call back, show up on time, and tell you what it costs before starting.
We Know Why You’re Looking for a Better Electrical Solution

- Got a surprise on the invoice that nobody mentioned upfront

PETES Electric Has Been Part of Missoula Since 1999
We’re a family-owned electrical contractor based at 2407 Harve Ave., Missoula. Eric Petersen and the PETES Electric team (Sierra, Jacob, David, and the rest of the crew) have been handling residential and commercial electrical work across Missoula and the surrounding region for decades. The KOA Campground, local businesses, long-time homeowners, and new builds across the valley. We’ve been the electrician that Missoula calls because we’ve earned that position one job at a time.
PETES Electric has three master electricians on staff. That’s not common. Most electrical contractors have one, or none. A master electrician holds the highest license level in Montana, understands the code thoroughly, and takes full responsibility for the quality of the work. Having three on staff means that standard is consistent across every job, residential or commercial, large or small. And all our work is backed by a one-year labor and materials warranty, well above the industry standard of three to six months.

I have used Pete's for several years professionally and at my home. Recently David Leiby came to our home to repair a short issue that started out of the blue. He was professional, polite and found the issue quickly. I would recommend Pete's Electrical to anyone that needed a quality electrician and a fair price.

A master electrician holds the highest license level in Montana’s electrical trade, requiring years of journeyman experience, a state exam, and ongoing continuing education. Three master electricians is uncommon in this market. Most electrical contractors have one or none. It means that when PETES Electric does your job, the person overseeing the work has the highest possible credential behind it, and the one-year labor and materials warranty means you’re covered if anything isn’t right.
