About us
Gradient Electric helps homeowners lower their energy bills and stay comfortable, with solar, battery backup, generators, heat pumps and the electrical work behind them.

Gradient Electric was founded by Hector Ruiz, a master electrician. We have been in business for 5 years and serve the Tri-Cities, Walla Walla and Yakima. Our approach is simple: we explain what is going on with your home, lay out your options, and let you decide. We also fix systems other companies installed, so we know what to look for. Every job is done by our own licensed electricians and backed by a 2-year workmanship warranty.
Not sure we cover you? Call and ask.
“Highly recommended! When we learned very quickly that electricity was something best left to the experts, hector was my first call--and my only call. We had planned to get bids from several electricians, but once we met Hector at gradient electric, we stopped searching. Not only was he prompt, honest, and very courteous, he was also extremely professional. Hector and his team was very upfront with project costs and time, and had everything done well ahead of what was promised. Hector even sent us a thank you note in appreciation for our business. It's really rare to find his level of work ethic (and commitment to a job well done) these days. Thank you for your help, Gradient electric!” -Juan
“Gradient came out to hook up our new hot tub and they were prompt, extremely efficient, tidy, polite, and did an amazing job! We highly recommend them. Hector and his crew are awesome! They also installed a new electrical panel for one of my clients and they had the same great experience. Definitely call Gradient for any electrical items!!”
