Hey Electric has been family-owned since 1948

Our family owned firm was founded in 1948 by our father H. M. Rodgers Jr.. He started as an electrical instructor in the US Navy prior to contracting. Through the years our company has evolved and grown from doing small residential and commercial electrical jobs in the 1950's and 1960's to managing and performing much larger, more complex and diverse projects today.

Industrial Electrical Services for 40 years

For more than 40 years, we have concentrated our efforts primarily towards heavy industrial electrical projects. Although we have performed projects for a wide variety of clientele, the majority of our large projects have been in the manufacturing facilities, data centers, chemical and petro-chemical plants and steel mills of Western Pennsylvania.

Our firm HEY ELECTRIC CO., L.P., is centered around a Management Team that is very closely aligned and experienced in many facets of electrical maintenance and construction, as well as, instrumentation, communications and electrical specialty work (i.e., Emergency Generators, Heat Tracing, Aerial Line Work, Conveyor Wiring, High Voltage Work, Fiber Optic Installations and Much More).

In the late 1980's electronic instrumentation systems and distributive control systems (DCS) became a larger portion of the electrical contracts we completed for our clients. Through this experience we gained another field of expertise.

In the early 1990's when Local Area Networks became common, we became involved with several major fiber optic and structured cable plant (STP) installations. These installations were performed in the facilities of some of our oldest and dearest industrial clients. This part of our business grew dramatically leading up to Y2K.

In the first decade of the new millinium, steel mill and chemical plant automations and upgrades, including security measures due to 911, added to our work load; while serving and maintaining all client relationships.

In the second decade of 2010 through 2019, the steel mills and chemical plant work remained strong; and the wood products, glass and specialty manufacturers, data centers and the natural gas compressor stations in our area became an additional focus for our business.

Today we feel equally comfortable with installations ranging from optic fiber communication/data cabling, to instrumentation loop development and installation, to automating and upgrading an industrial unit, or a complete green or brown field electrical project which included all three major electrical divisions.

Our management team includes a wide variety of backgrounds; ranging from economic and administrative to technical engineering along with a strong mix of solid hands-on experience. This enables us to continually up-grade and streamline our methods of management and construction, without sacrificing our high quality standard.

We partner with our suppliers and vendors in order to maintain the highest level of service at the best price. We pay our vendors on time, every time; usually with discounts. This guarantees superior service and a good credit rating. We utilize special purchasing software to document and track our materials. Our purchasing team member hold engineering degrees which helps to ensure purchasing the right materials the first time, every time.

In 1984, we returned to affiliation with the International AFL-CIO International Brotherhood of Electrical Works (IBEW) Labor Union. Today we work together with IBEW Locals in Western PA and beyond. This grants us access to a large pool of experienced and highly skilled construction electricians during the natural ebb and flow of work. It also enables us to utilize the NMAPC and other local construction agreements when applicable. We are able to work in harmony with the union to allow our employees to earn a good living and still remain cost effective in the market place through their superior training and performance.
