25 Years of Excellent Service

Ed Wheat, President of Wheat Electric & Controls & Master Electrician, is a proud father of five, husband of one, and a licensed master electrician in the state of Texas (License #23081).

After serving in Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm as a Cavalry Scout (19D) in the US Army, upon honorable discharge, Ed studied Electronic Instrumentation Technology at Texas State Technical College. Upon graduation with honors in early 1995, he went to work for International Paper Corp. in a heavy industrial construction and start up environment for three years. Later, he would work for Louisiana Pacific Corp. in a similar capacity advancing from a shift electrician to electrical department supervisor and eventually Maintenance Superintendent over the course of 9 years. Ed began filling the needs of wood products facilities and worked shutdown maintenance on weekends, upgrading existing production equipment in NE Texas, NW Louisiana, and southern Arkansas.

After marrying his Central-South Texas sweetheart, Rachel, Ed fell in love with the culture and beauty of the area. He listened to and followed his heart by leaving the Fortune 500 game, fully committing to his dream of serving South Texas by founding Wheat Electric & Controls, LLC in 2007. The company began by building numerous commercial projects (6 Planet Fitness locations throughout San Antonio and Austin). Wanting to return to his professional roots, Ed sought industrial clientele, and upon achieving his goal, he never looked back while continuing to serve commercial and residential customers. To this day, over 30 facilities rely upon the expertise of Wheat Electric & Controls to stay profitable and in production.

His two-man team came out a few days later and carefully and quickly got the job done, rewiring my well and installing an outlet and wiring for my workshop wood planer.  I am definitely going to use these guys again.

We made several contacts with local Electricians and finally decided on Wheat Electric & Controls. Troy had come to our home and we explained our needs and he also offered alternatives that we incorporated and his bid was very competitive. Our decision was magnified with the very professional installation and workmanship of Troy & Jamie of the work they performed. If there is a better Electrical company in the Spring Branch area, it would be hard to believe. They are very polite and professional in their workmanship and even take precautions to protect our furniture and belongings when working. 5 stars is not enough of a rating for a company that we will recommend to our friends and neighbors and hopefully use in the future should the need arise
