Our Story

Apache Electric & Maintenance was founded on the principles of quality, integrity, and community. Owners Fred Ramirez and Justin Schmidt have a shared passion for creating exceptional electrical solutions for the residents and businesses of Colorado Springs and Southern Colorado. Fred, part Apache, brings the spirit of community and craftsmanship into every project, which is why our tagline is, “Come Join the Tribe.” We believe that every client, whether residential or commercial, is part of our extended family.

We started Apache Electric & Maintenance with a simple mission: to provide reliable, high-quality electrical services while supporting our local community. Our certified electricians are committed to delivering the best results, and our community-oriented approach has helped us build lasting relationships with our clients. We take pride in our friendly, approachable service, ensuring each project we take on is tailored to the unique needs of our customers.

“We are on this earth for two simple reasons – to be a witness to others and to serve them. The rest is just filler.”
