When you call Richard's Plumbing & Electric, you are working directly with a licensed and insured team that handles both plumbing and electrical needs, from urgent repairs to planned upgrades and ongoing maintenance. We focus on doing the job safely and efficiently, and on delivering solutions that support the reliability, efficiency, and safety of your systems.

As a family-owned business, we take pride in the personal way we do business. Our roots in this community go back to 1980, and over the years we have served tens of thousands of customers across Manatee and Sarasota counties. That history shapes how we answer the phone, schedule your service, show up at your property, and follow through until the work is complete.

We know that plumbing and electrical issues can disrupt your home or business at any time, so we offer easy, flexible scheduling for both urgent and non-urgent needs. Our team provides same-day service when available and weekend appointments for situations that cannot wait for regular weekday hours.

To help you plan and budget with confidence, we provide free upfront estimates before work begins. You will know what to expect, with pricing that is competitive in our market and aligned with the level of training, licensing, and equipment required to complete your project safely and correctly.

We also understand the value of prevention. In addition to one-time repairs and projects, we offer preventative maintenance membership plans designed to help you reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns and extend the life of your plumbing and electrical systems. These plans give you scheduled inspections and service that can identify issues early, before they become larger, more costly problems.

Our team is equipped to handle a wide range of work, including residential homes, commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and municipal properties. Whether we are repairing a leak, troubleshooting an electrical issue, or performing a larger system upgrade, we approach every project with the same attention to detail and commitment to safe, code-compliant work.

We are also mindful that we are guests in your home. All of our services are pet-friendly, and we take care to work in a way that is considerate of your animals, your family, and your property. Our technicians are courteous on-site, communicate clearly, and clean up when the work is done.
