Raleigh NC Electricians since 1990
Wiretech Company was founded by Mike Jones in 1990 following in his father’s footsteps. He began
his career as an electrician in 1979 and retired in 2023 after being in business for thirty-plus years.
Mike would say “Our reputation is the most important thing we have; without it, we’ll have no
business”. He often told his technicians that when he was in the field doing electrical work, his
customers were convinced that no one else could do what he could do. They would wait as long as it
took for him to come to their homes and take care of their work. Even today, Wiretech’s electrical
technicians have the same relationships with their customers.
In 2011, Mike hired a well-trained electrician who showed a promising future with the Company. That
electrician was Michael Lashley. Michael had 17 career years at that time, not including part-time
work in high school with Farmers Electric and Lewis Electric. He learned all the electrical
fundamentals and developed strong values from his father, Warren. During his high school years,
Michael took all available trade courses and two years of electronics. He is experienced in all low
voltage, alarm, CCTV, structured wiring, audio & communication systems. His high voltage
experience includes generators, battery storage, custom & production residential homes,
commercial & industrial electrical systems, automation controls, service upgrades and EV charging.
Since being at Wiretech, Michael quickly became Field Supervisor and Lead Estimator. He then
started researching and growing his knowledge to include the fast-paced technology of Electric
Vehicles and their charging aspects. Michael went through the process of adding Wiretech to Tesla’s
Certified Installer list – allowing us to perform several thousand installations and making Wiretech
Company Tesla’s number-one installer in the Triangle. Additionally, we install every brand of EV
Charging Unit, including ChargePoint, WallBox, Juicebox and more.
In 2022, Mike Jones had thoughts of retiring and selling the business. He made Michael Vice
President of the company, ensuring his lifelong work would stay in good hands. This led to Michael
getting his Unlimited Electrical License and Mike hung up his coat and pursued retirement with his
wife at the beach. Michael bought the business and continues to look for ways to grow Wiretech and
keep it successful.
