Owner & President
Harry Holmes, Jr. founded Altimate Electric, Inc. in 1997 with a vision to build a commercial electrical contracting firm that would provide endless opportunities and deliver the highest quality of workmanship. With this vision in mind, Harry has created a highly qualified and dynamic team with uncapped potential. As a transformational leader, Harry is involved, charismatic, and he continually challenges his employees to be the best. He works one on one with team members to provide them with the tools and the knowledge necessary to empower them to be successful. No matter who he encounters, whether it be an employee or a client Harry fosters lasting personal and professional relationships.
Harry’s passion for the electrical industry was inspired by his father, who worked as an electrician and business owner. Harry began his career in 1982 working with his father as a helper and quickly learned the electrical trade. Determined to work his way to the top, he completed the 4-year apprenticeship certification program, obtained his Master Electrician license, and successfully ran work as a foreman. Once he accomplished this, Harry continued to educate himself in estimating and project management in order to fully understand all aspects of the electrical business. Since incorporating Altimate in 1997, the company has grown substantially, with more growth on the horizon. With his foresight, Harry continues to put key people in key positions to ensure that the company maintains its solid structure as the company evolves.
