Rush Elliott Electrical
Rush's Story
Rush Elliott Jr’s passion for the electrical trade started in ninth grade when his science teacher noticed his knack for circuits and encouraged him to explore the local tech school’s electrician training program. By the time he graduated high school, Rush had passed his exams and knew he’d found his calling.
Over ten years later in 2020, that same curiosity and drive became the foundation of Rush Elliott Electrical, a family-owned and operated company built on hard work, safety, and trust. When Rush realized he had more passion to give, he dedicated to start his own business. What began as a one-person operation has evolved into a close-knit and growing team that approaches work with integrity, dedication, and care.
Rush’s dad, Rush Sr., joined the business a few years in, bringing with him decades of maintenance experience and the perseverance he passed down to his son. Rush Jr’s wife, Alex, balances her own full-time career, motherhood, and the behind-the-scenes-details that keep the business going strong.
Today, Rush Elliott Electrical continues to serve Fayette County and the surrounding areas with the same excitement and integrity that started it all. From rewires to smart home upgrades, every job is approached with care, craftsmanship, and the belief that good work and trusting relationships go hand-in-hand.
