Our Family Can Help Solve Your Electrical Issues

Any story about Small Jobs Electric begins with Tom Houle.

Tom was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts. As a young adult, he joined the Air Force, where he received his electrical training. He was stationed in sunny Florida, where he couldn’t believe that it was actually possible to work outside during winter and enjoy it! Eventually, he returned home to Boston with his wife, Maria, and they started their family.

Although Tom loved working in the electrical trade, he found the winters very difficult. In addition, his mother-in-law lived in Tampa, and Maria was longing to be closer to her. Florida’s warm tropical breezes beckoned, and it was time to make a move. In 1984, the Houles packed up their three kids and moved to Tampa. After a couple of years and some bumps in the road, Small Jobs Electric was born.

With the help of Maria, Tom slowly grew the business. At a very early age, their son Nathaniel decided he was going to be an electrician just like his dad. Tom would take Nathaniel with him on his jobs to meet his customers and teach him the trade – to this day, some of our earliest customers remember meeting Tom’s little son toddling by his dad’s side. He would always tell his dad that someday, Small Jobs Electric would do BIG electrical jobs too!

Nathaniel, in time, attended Tampa Bay Technical High School, where he received further training in the electrical field. After high school, he soon got his Master’s Electrical License, and it was time to officially become part of our family business. Nathaniel joined the Small Jobs Electric team full-time, making the company TRULY family-owned and operated.

It is very important to add the right kind of technician: Someone who is skilled, but teachable; someone who is ethical and personable; someone who is a listener but thinks outside the box.

The Next Generation: Small Jobs Electric Today

Almost four decades have passed since Tom first started our company. Over the years, we have had the pleasure of meeting a lot of great homeowners and climbed into and out of many of the attics in the Tampa Bay Area. Even though Tom still loves being an electrician, at 70 years old, it was getting a lot harder to get into those tight spaces, and in 2023, Tom officially hung up his tools and turned the company over to Nathaniel.

Nathaniel and his wife, Carla, are determined to keep Small Jobs Electric a family company. We appreciate our many loyal customers and the great team we have both in and out of the office. We, in turn, are happy to continue extending our family to help your family with all electrical projects and needs!
