My grandfather decided he didn&#8217;t want to work for anybody anymore. He had been trained to be an electrician in the Navy during World War II and worked in a couple of plants here in Little Rock and then he just decided he wanted to start his own business. So he went out and started wiring homes for people. He started putting in outlets for air conditioning. Air conditioning was new at the time and everybody had to have a window unit. I guess for the first 10 years of his career the majority of his work was residential wiring. We&#8217;re still doing the very same services today that we did 70 years ago. And that&#8217;s something we&#8217;re very proud of. Our business grew as a family business. We&#8217;re in the third generation of ownership and all of us are electricians and we just love this work. And so we&#8217;re going to continue to serve the people of Little Rock with great electrical service whether it&#8217;s in their home or in their office in their business or in their industrial plant.&#8221; &#8211; Brent Staley<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">Because of each and every one of you, Staley Electric was voted&nbsp;Best&nbsp;Electrician (Best&nbsp;of the&nbsp;Best&nbsp;2018) by readers of the Arkansas Democrat Gazette!
