Our Vision

As a friends and family company who values our consumers, customer service is of upmost importance. ALE is a company whose commitment to quality work exceeds  standards. Our goal is "zero defect" with inspections passing the first time and electrical components starting up upon completion.

Our Story

After many years of working for different electrical contractors Russell decided to start his own company. Asheville Local Electric was established in 2017. With little money and an old Nissan pickup truck, Russell worked on his own for a while before growing his company and hiring employees.  Russell's comprehensive knowledge in the electrical field gives ALE the ability to work on any electrical project.
