Get to know our family
Meet Sam — the electrical contractor behind every job.
Sam is the owner and operator of Good Help Electric. He lives right here in the Treasure Valley with his wife Emily and their four kids. When Sam's not running wire or tracking down a tricky electrical problem, he's biking around Boise with his family or teaching his kids how to tackle basic home repairs and handle things on their own.
Sam learned the trade from his father-in-law, a licensed electrical contractor who has run his own business in the valley for over 30 years. That hands-on apprenticeship gave Sam a strong foundation — and the confidence to take a position at a larger electrical company, where he worked his way up to Service Department Manager. Those years taught him how to run a business the right way: show up on time, be honest about what the job needs, do clean work, and leave every home better than you found it. With 12 years of hands-on electrical experience, Sam has worked in thousands of Treasure Valley homes and knows them inside and out.
