Mel Carr began his career at Phillip Schuyler High School's vocational electrical shop class. After high school Mel worked for local contractors in the Capital Region, focusing on larger scale commercial and industrial jobs. His years in the industry and experience with all forms of electrical contracting allowed him to study the National Electrical Code and New York State Residential Code to become a master electrician. In 1976, Mel opened a little electrical shop in a garage near his home in Colonie, NY. His goal was to provide excellent electrical service to the Capital Region in all fields of electrical contracting. Mel quickly realized that there was a great need for top-quality, professional residential service electricians. Most local electricians were ignoring the residential customers, instead focusing on the commercial market because they claimed, "that is where the money is." Mel sought the road less traveled, and planned to bring a new level of professionalism and customer service to our industry. His dream would quickly become a reality...

Rob was a communication student at SUNY Albany when he met his beautiful wife Rachel and the two decided to start a family here in the Capital Region. His first summer out of college was spent opening a small retail cell phone store from the ground up. Though this store was a not a thriving venture, the lessons he learned were invaluable to him realizing that his love of business would be best utilized with his family, as an electrical contractor. His background in communication and sales brought a newer level of customer service to a thriving company. Rob took night classes while working in a service truck during the day to become a licensed electrician, just like his father. Rob's involvement has been integral to the committed success of our company. He is leading the growth of Mel Carr Electric through new marketing ideas and utilizing the newest communication methods available today. His continued involvement will ensure that our valued customers will have a residential electrician for years to come!
