Company Profile

Founded in 1981 by Garry Fitzpatrick and his wife Madelon, Fitzpatrick Electrical Contractor Inc.  (also known as “Fitze”) started off as a small contractor focused on the construction of specialty power and environment for computer facilities, and the financial institutions. With a small number of employees and working out of the house Garry serviced a small but loyal group of clients, who knew that no matter how demanding, or technically challenging their requirements were, Fitze would get it done.  The business under the guidance of Garry and Madelon enjoyed a steady and productive growth.

Later joined by his stepsons John and Robert Somers in 1988/89 the company continued to service and expand it’s customer base and enjoy a steady growth in business.  The company quickly incorporated a data/voice cabling group, commercial/industrial construction group, and a complete service department, later adding a Renewables division.  Keeping true to its roots the business has always worked hard at its core expertise, the telecommunications industry (Computer Rooms, Generators, UPS systems), and the financial institutions, but has also branched out to retail, restaurant and Institutional projects. Late in 2000 it was decided that Madelon and Garry would at some point need to retire, and so began the long arduous road known as succession planning.  John and Bob took over the business and rapidly expanded, changing the logo to what we see today and adding manpower and a fleet of vehicles to service the growing customer demand. 21 years later the business continues it’s successful path and growth with exciting new projects being undertaken on a continual basis.
