ABOUT / THE PERSON BEHIND THE WORK

I like wiring things well.
And thinking them through first.

I'm Josh Moews. I own Moews Electrical Solutions & Services, and I'm the master electrician involved in the work—not a name on a truck and someone else's answering service.

If it looks simple when I'm done, that's usually because I overthought it before I showed up.

WHY I BUILT THIS COMPANY

Small on purpose.

I've spent more than 25 years working with electrical systems, from houses and building renovations to industrial equipment, control systems, hospitals, and larger power-distribution work.

Some of those projects were complicated. Others only looked simple until we opened something up. I learned to pay attention to both kinds.

I started my own business because I wanted to be directly involved with the people I'm helping. I'd rather understand your problem and work out a sensible solution than sell a standard answer before I've asked a good question.

That doesn't mean every project gets a novel written about it. Sometimes a bad device really is just a bad device. It's nice when the evidence cooperates.

A DIFFERENT SET OF EYES

I've been on the
other side of the invoice.

I'm also a property owner and manager. I understand coordinating tenants, access, maintenance, and the difference between a repair that solves the problem and one that only makes it disappear until next Tuesday.

I've also completed substantial AccountingCoach coursework and spent time studying business management. It helps me think about project value, long-term operating costs, and whether a proposed upgrade is money well spent. It doesn't turn an electrician into your financial adviser—it just means I'm paying attention to more than the wire.

Sometimes the best recommendation is the smaller repair. Sometimes spending more now prevents paying for the same disruption twice. We'll talk about that tradeoff.

TRAINING & CREDENTIALS

Proof behind the promise.

Formal training, field experience, and a few years spent teaching the trade. I still learn something on nearly every job.

2005 / APPRENTICESHIP

IBEW / NECA Journeyman Wireman

Completed the five-year Peoria & Vicinity JATC apprenticeship. The U.S. Department of Labor also recorded completion of the Inside Wireman apprenticeship.

MASTER / QUALIFICATION

International Code Council (ICC) master-level examination

Passed the ICC F16 National Standard Master Electrician exam. Also holds a City of Peoria Master Electrician license. The examination and jurisdictional license are distinct credentials.

TEACHING / EXPERIENCE

Former JATC instructor

Later returned to the apprenticeship program as an instructor for several years. Explaining a circuit to someone else has a way of exposing any holes in your own understanding.

COLLEGE / EDUCATION

Illinois Central College

Earned a two-year degree from Illinois Central College. Another ICC, entirely unrelated to the International Code Council. Apparently I collect acronyms.

INDUSTRIAL / AUTOMATION

Rockwell Automation fundamentals

Completed a Fundamentals of Automation course through Rockwell Automation, complementing hands-on work with controls, PLCs, and industrial equipment.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Texas A&M University course

Completed Project Management Level I coursework through Texas A&M University. Good projects depend on sequencing, communication, access, and realistic tradeoffs.

SAFETY / TRAINING

OSHA 30-hour training

Completed OSHA 30-hour Outreach Training. Safety training matters, but it is not a substitute for planning around actual equipment and site conditions.

2026 / CONTINUING EDUCATION

SPAN smart-panel training

Completed SPAN Authorized Installer Training on March 17, 2026, with practical experience installing modern electrical distribution equipment.

I continue to teach and mentor in volunteer settings. Qualifications and records can be discussed or verified when relevant to your project.

THE WAY I WORK

Ask. Listen.
Think past the obvious.

I'll tell you what I know, what I need to check, and where the tradeoffs are. If something isn't necessary, I'd rather say that than dress it up as an upgrade.

Power, Precision, and Peace of Mind. Not because it looks good under a logo, but because those are three things the work should actually deliver.
