For over four decades, we have been Southeast Michigan's trusted partner for commercial, industrial, and multifamily electrical work -- built on veteran values, family leadership, and an unwavering commitment to craft.
From a one-truck operation to one of Southeast Michigan's most respected electrical contractors.
Dan Flanders, a U.S. Military veteran, founded Daniel Electric with a simple conviction: treat every job like your reputation depends on it -- because it does. His military discipline translated directly into the precision and reliability that became the company's hallmark. Co-founder Bill Woodhull joined early, bringing deep electrical expertise and a shared commitment to doing the work right.
Veteran-Founded
Southeast Michigan
Starting with a small team and a commitment to excellence, Dan and Bill took on commercial and industrial projects that larger firms overlooked, earning a reputation for reliability and quality craftsmanship.
Through the decades, Daniel Electric grew steadily -- not by chasing volume, but by earning repeat business. General contractors and property managers learned they could count on Daniel Electric to show up on time, solve problems proactively, and deliver work that passed inspection on the first try. The team expanded to specialize in fire alarm systems, multifamily housing, and industrial facilities.
Growing Team
Decades of steady growth
Many of our electricians have been with Daniel Electric for over 20 years -- a testament to the culture of respect and professionalism that Dan and Bill built from day one.
Now second-generation led, Daniel Electric is being transformed under the leadership of Adam Woodhull. With John Woodhull heading the fire alarm division as a Master Electrician and Electrical Engineer, Brad Woodhull managing operations, and Kyle Mill driving estimating precision, the company combines decades of institutional knowledge with fresh strategic vision. The founding values remain unchanged: do exceptional work, keep your word, and treat every building as if your own family lived there.
